Loeb secures seventh title with win

Sebastien Loeb clinched a record-extending seventh consecutive World Rally Championship title with another consummate victory - the 60th of his career and his sixth of the season - in his home rally in France. Any result other than a Loeb win this weekend would have been the shock of the decade given his and Citroen's unstoppable form on asphalt in recent years. Sure enough, he established a 40-second lead in the first half of the rally and then eased his pace and drove carefully to protect his advantage and ensure a straightforward victory
