Eight-time World Rally champion Sébastien Ogier was primed to defend his title at the 2022 World Rallycross season opener at Monte Carlo. As the four-day event progressed, the man who’d dominated Rallycross for the last decade was in the lead… until he found himself competing with an unexpected aggressor: a 47-year-old dude who hadn’t participated in a WRC event in over a year, driving a car he’d never raced. It was Sébastien Loeb. How did Sébastien Loeb become a racing icon, despite not getting behind the wheel of a professional car until he was 21? How has he been able to dominate the highest levels of Rallycross, but take on Le Mans, The X-games, and The World Touring Car Championship? And what do other pillars of the racing world think of our boy Seb? We have answers to those questions and a whole lot more. Today on Past Gas, a closer look at modern racing legend - Sébastien Loeb.

I was able to attend the 2011 and 2012 WRC in Germany. You could see the difference in the driving. It was apparent that Loeb was faster even though you only saw a couple of corners at a time.

Loeb, Peterhansel, Sainz Sr., Lewis Hamilton, Alonso, Scot Dixon, Ogier, Ekstrom, and Will Power are today's drivers have long lasting competitiveness longevity. These drivers are proven all-times great at their respective Motorsport. They can still compete at highest level through generations even they are about to hit or already posted 40ish.

Shock top. I remember when it was first released as a seasonal. It’s name was spring heat spiced wheat! We sold tons of bottles rolling the bottle to get the sediment to it at the table it sold amazingly and people try it with out the sediment and with the sediment. It went nuts

There is video of Sébastien Loeb showing up to rallies in his private helicopter. Instructing the young pilots like it was done for him. Look up Oliver Solberg. He also was piloting it for red bull and with the french air Force.

It would have been so cool if you took a episode about mr Hollywood himself, Petter Solberg

Nolan's intro was seriously confusing me lol. Haven't listened to the show for a while but it's nice to come back to hear Joe is still confidently correcting his colleagues' foreign pronunciations and still getting them completely wrong, like Fréquelin. Though he got Guy right to be fair!

is this an early edit or something

I like how Joe inadvertently criticised the writer at the end. "Wow we know nothing about his personality! Just that he won a lot!"
