Time for Sébastien's big premiere Loeb at the wheel of theAlpine A110 GT+ of Ludovic Godard's team is approaching. While waiting for the first special stages of Rally Mont-Blanc Morzine 2024 (September 5-7), the Alsatian continues to take charge of his new toy.

This week, the nine-time World Rally Champion was entitled to a new test session with his mount. The opportunity for him to acclimatize a little more to this machine with which he hopes to be able to sign some brilliant feats on the roads of the Alps.

This is the chain YouTube Adrille Rally who captured this new ride by Sébastien Loeb with theAlpine. A video that won over the public, under the spell of this association between the legend and his new car, like the comments under the publication.

« It's actually brand new., he confided to us. I have still evolved with GTs on the circuit and I have already moved in a propulsion, but it is nice to have to do it in a race. I will have to adapt to the corner entries and the positions. It remains a GT. It does not have the agility and the reactivity of a Rally2. It is a little more comfortable and less incisive. I cannot yet play with it in the same way as I do with a 4-wheel drive. I am less comfortable. It is a car that does not make much noise. Unlike the 306 Maxi where the engine screams where it moves and where it jumps, here everything is more muffled, on the torque. At the beginning, Laurène thought that we were not moving forward, but I think that theAlpine moves well and is efficient. I like it »
