Sébastien Loeb

“We’ve done it again. The goal is to keep the second place until the end and to score important points for the (World Rally-Raid) championship, but now it’s a new record with six victories in a row on the Dakar so I’m very happy. 

“That’s seven for us this year. Everything has gone so well for over a week now with very good stages enabling us to get back to second place, but now we need to finish. The dunes today were softer than previous days plus it was 150 kilometres of dunes for the whole route, so there was no chance to rest. It was hot in the car, no fast sections so it was much harder today.”

“Another impressive performance by Seb, Fabian, the whole Bahrain Raid Xtreme team and at the Prodrive base in the UK to clinch six stages in a row and beat a record that’s been there since 1989. We’re all very proud of it. There’s one more stage to do tomorrow and at the end of that we’ll see if our aim to lead the World Rally Raid Championship comes forth, but in the meantime, it’s a happy day at BRX.”
