Thatsa point, how many titles has valentino rossi won?
Rossi 9 titles, but it´s not simple in motorcycles because there is lot of classes. Agostini won 15 titles, Hailwood 9 titles and so on..
Juha Salminen (FIN, enduro driver) has 18 titles if we get all titles. But these are different kind of motorsport,than rally but if we talk ALL KIND OF MOTORSPORT.
These was just examples...
NONE has ever won 8 CONSECUTIVE ones....
you can only count the top league ones...Loeb has titles in s1600 as well....and many nobodies have titles in lesser divisions of any motorsport so its not a true indication.
It´s hard to measure top league in different motorsport leagues.
Example, 1960´s competition in 350cc class(TT/RR) was sometimes harder than 500cc and driver can win 350 and 500 title in same season and so on... And in enduro you can´t say strait what class is top league every year.
This is offtopic and i´m sorry about that.
Loeb is great and record breaking driver, my post is not against to him.
Is Loeb a high profile star in France?
yes...he does commercials (not car related) and also after his championship win last year he paraded around the stade de france in his C4 wrc before a Frances friendly match...a french guy would answer it more properly but i think most of french people know him
well i think if any country had an 8 time world champion in any sport, they would exploit his marketing value to the maximum.
Also remembering he got a medal from the French president so he has to have a high profile.
