Perhaps, if it comes down to it, they will tell Loeb that if he wins in France, then he wins in France. They won't attempt to stop him for the sake of Hirvonen's title bid, but nor will they give orders to Hirvonen.
What is this 'Hirvonen's title bid' of which you speak? A new Finnish book to rival '50 Shades' perhaps or some other work of fiction?
