“It was really a great weekend,” said Sébastien Loeb as he got out of the car. Thanks to the PGRX team for preparing a perfect car for me. They suggested that I come and ride in Lohéac, and it's true that I didn't have much to do on that date. In addition, I had great memories, mainly in relation to the atmosphere and the audience. I told myself that coming back to run in France, in Lohéac, was a great idea.
The car was incredible, and it allowed me to fight at the front in every heat. It couldn't have ended better than by winning the semi-final and then the final! Everything went well. The initial strategy was perfect. The balance of the car and its engine were great. I felt comfortable in the Hyundai, I was able to drive “liberated” for two days and it paid off in the end. »
