5th: Sébastien Loeb
World RX Titles: 0
World RX Wins: 2
World RX Podiums: 17
Best Championship Finish: 4th (2017/2018)
The world’s most successful rally driver – with an unrivalled 80 WRC event wins and nine consecutive World Championship titles to his name – Sébastien Loeb has gained something of a reputation for mastering whatever motorsport discipline he turns his hand to. Rallycross included.
A gold medal recipient at the 2012 X Games in California, Loeb went on to contest his home round of the FIA European Rallycross Championship at Lohéac in 2013 behind the wheel of a Citroën DS3.
He subsequently joined the factory-backed Team Peugeot-Hansen outfit for a full season of World RX competition in 2016. A maiden podium finish in Belgium would be the first of four that year – including a breakthrough victory in Latvia – propelling the Frenchman to fifth in the overall standings ahead of team-mate Timmy Hansen, the 2015 championship runner-up and a driver who would go on to clinch the Drivers’ crown in 2019.
