Nine-times rally world champion Sébastien Loeb is the latest high-profile sports personality to join the circle of Richard Mille ambassadors. The 38 year-old Frenchman has amassed 76 victories and 112 podium finishes en route to his record-breaking nine world titles.
Not content with his resounding success on dirt tracks, Loeb has also branched out into circuit racing, competing in the Le Mans 24-hour race in 2006, where he came second in a Team Pescarolo prototype. Having created Sébastien Loeb Racing in 2011, the team will compete in this year’s FIA GT Series with two McLaren MP4-12C GT3 cars. Sébastien will also compete in the GT Sprint Series as well as in four rounds of this year’s World Rally Championship (WRC).
