    As Loeb gets older he looks incredibly tough and cool. Kind of "Jason Statham in The transporter movie" guy.
    Visit South Moravia. It is the real paradise

    The white peaks of the Sierra Nevada have witnessed the return of Sebastien Loeb to the controls of the Citroën C3 WRC. The return with capital letters, since after testing it last year in France and Girona on asphalt and earth, and a couple of weeks ago in galas also on land, is now finalizing its return to the World Rally Championship in Mexico.

    In the town of Fiñana, on a stretch of 4.9 kilometers that, according to the nine times champion of the world of the specialty, "is very similar to some of the stretches of the Mexican appointment", Loeb and his inseparable Daniel Elena have begun the final sprint for his return to the specialty where they are absolute kings. At 0 degrees and an altitude of 1,300 meters, the C3 began to roar at 8.30 in the morning.
    And it did not seem to be piloted by a 'retired person'. On the contrary, the sensation that it gave was the opposite for its rhythm. "I'm more comfortable than in the test I did in Gerona in September," said the Frenchman. "Especially the rear gives me more confidence, although it can also be for the type of section, we are going to try different settings."

    The trial of two days will be the prelude to the Rally of Mexico in two weeks. "The starting position will favor us, but I have not run for six years and I do not know where I will be, the level of the World Cup is very high and I have no idea of ​​our possibilities, it's going to be complicated," Loeb admits.
    The king of the rallies explains that he chose Mexico "because he wanted to start with an earth rally, and I was not going to do it in Finland, which is very complicated, I had to decide between Mexico, Argentina and Portugal, and I chose this because Argentina matches me. World Rallycross and the route of Portugal is new for me, in Mexico 28% of the route is new, but all the stages are familiar, I have started watching videos to try to locate myself, I study the inner cameras of other pilots like Ogier to make me an idea, not in search of benefits ".
    Loeb says he chose his three-round World Championship calendar "based on my commitments to rallycross, I'll run two before starting that championship and another when I finish it, I chose France for obvious reasons, and Spain because I like it a lot." However he rejected Germany, the test that has won more times, "because I will be on vacation at that time." From 8 to 11 March the king returns on the roads of León and Guanajuato.

    Great to hear from another driver that the car has improved on gravel since his last test in it, in terms of driveability and having more confidence from the rear.
