Nobody is bashing Loeb, but this is an RG site, so you must expect a little favoritism. He's also entering a proven vehicle vs a relative unknown. Apples to oranges don't you think?

And probably has all of the parts from three cars used last year. It's a pretty good "used" car..

Parts big deal. RG has parts and three drivers to get behind the team

Yes Loeb gets money from Red Bull but no manufacturer support. He is only one entry as against RG's three and RG has a list of companies that support him

Not the case with Sebastian Loeb he has a private entry. As far as I a concerned RG made a bad choice with the current car, not as spectacular as his previous cars, slow on the flat sections but supposed to be fast on the dunes

If Loeb wins the Dakar he will be the only privateer since Schlesser another Frenchmen to win

It’s all good man. Just giving you a hard time. You can’t say he doesn’t have the sanctioning body on his side though.

Wait, we're gonna call Loeb a privateer? Hahahaha

you mean renting a car from PH Sport makes you a non-privateer?

He does not have a $50 million organisation, running three cars, he is a privateer
