The desires of Sebastien Loeb

Sebastien Loeb has won the World Rally Championship for the last two years and is no slouch in racing cars either having raced for Pescarolo in the Le Mans 24 Hours. On the road he drives a Ferrari and makes no secret of the fact that he would like to get a test in Formula 1 car to see what it is like. Loeb says that he has discussed the idea with Jean Todt but the Frenchman has yet to give Loeb the chance he desires. That is probably not going to happen this year because Loeb is contracted to Gauloises and Ferrari is sponsored by Marlboro.
