Loyal to Citro\u00ebn since his competitive debut, he is supported by a dedicated team who have shared his success for many years and his co-driver and friend Daniel Elena has played a role in all his victories from the outset. The pair\u2019s brilliance and mutual understanding have enabled them to take podium after podium and go down in motor sport history. S\u00e9bastien Loeb is also renowned for his great versatility in motorsports, moving from dirt to road with extraordinary ease, as demonstrated by his magnificent second place in the 2006 24 Hours of Le Mans in a Team Pescarolo prototype.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Given these achievements, it would be easy for S\u00e9bastien Loeb to relax now but always looking for new challenges, he created S\u00e9bastien Loeb Racing in 2011, a motor racing team. The 2013 racing season will be intense for the team which steps into the FIA GT Series with two McLaren, MP4-12C GT3. S\u00e9bastien Loeb will also participate in the GT Sprint Series season on top of his partial rallying programme in WRC (4 rounds). This will open a new chapter in the motorsport career of this great champion, who is extremely popular with the general public.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>Richard Mille is delighted to have S\u00e9bastien Loeb in its team alongside other famous sporting talents, especially as Loeb reflects the spirit of the \u2018RM Family\u2019 perfectly. This partnership also provides a further opportunity for Richard Mille to place its watches in extreme conditions and test their performance and resistance to impacts as well as comfort. S\u00e9bastien Loeb, like RM\u2019s other sporting partners, will wear a Richard Mille watch on his wrist while competing, the first time being the Monte Carlo Rallye 16th to 19th of January. It is well-known that motorsports are one of Richard Mille\u2019s greatest passions and a continuous source of inspiration. Sharing the design philosophy of today\u2019s racing cars, RM watches are highly efficient, uncompromising and streamlined where function dictates form with no gimmicks.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>S\u00e9bastien Loeb: a timeline<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>1974: Born in Haguenau, in the Bas-Rhin region of France <\/div>\n<div>1995-1996: First steps in the \u201cJunior Rally\u201d competition <\/div>\n<div>1997: Voted \u201cMotorsports Hope of the Year\u201d <\/div>\n<div>1999: Wins \u201cCitro\u00ebn Saxo Kit Car\u201d Trophy <\/div>\n<div>2000: French two-wheel-drive Dirt Rally Champion <\/div>\n<div>2001: French Champion and World Junior Super 1600 Champion <\/div>\n<div>2002: First WRC victory <\/div>\n<div>2003- 2005 and 2008: 3 times winner of the \u201cRace of Champions\u201d <\/div>\n<div>9 World Rally Championships followed, with the same co-driver, Daniel Elena, for Citro\u00ebn: <\/div>\n<div>&#8211; 2004-2006: 3 titles driving a Xsara, 2nd in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2006 <\/div>\n<div>&#8211; 2007-2010: 4 titles driving a C4 <\/div>\n<div>&#8211; 2011-2012: 2 titles driving the new DS3 <\/div>\n<div>2013: Partial WRC programme with Monte Carlo, Sweden, Argentina and France <\/div>\n<div>&#8211; GT Sprint Series <\/div>\n<div>&#8211; FIA GT Series<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/422_1100.jpg\" alt=\"S\u00e9bastien Loeb a new Richard Mille partner. \u00a9Getty Image\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/422_1101.jpg\" alt=\"S\u00e9bastien Loeb. \u00a9Getty Image\" \/><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In addition to this Frenchman\u2019s huge talent \u2013 with 9 world championships under his belt! \u2013 Richard Mille was won over by his warm personality and down-to-earth approach.
