A score of eleven podium finishes on four continents in 2005 – including eight outright wins – has confirmed the Frenchman as one of motorsport's all-time greats, all disciplines included.

Michelin's 125,000 staff across the world are particularly proud and honoured to be associated with such a talented driver as Sébastien Loeb.

By finishing on the podium of this weekend's Rally Japan, Sébastien Loeb has successfully secured his second consecutive Drivers' world crown . The championship's thirteenth round was ultimately won by Marcus Grönholm (Peugeot) following the last day elimination of the long-time leader Petter Solberg (Subaru), but Citroën- Michelin continues to top the Manufacturers' points table with a lead of 22 points over its closest rival Peugeot.
