Rally great Sébastien Loeb is testing the new 2027 Project Rally One World Rally Championship (WRC) challenger. Multiple outlets report that the nine-time world champion joined the team during a development test to help with final preparation of the car.
Project Rally One says the car is scheduled to make its championship debut at the WRC season opener in Monte Carlo in January. The testing period is described as part of the broader development work led by the team, with Loeb’s experience used to support setup and performance evaluations ahead of the new-car introduction.
Both reports frame the same sequence of events: Loeb’s involvement, the association with a Belgian tuner team, and the planned Monte Carlo entry as the key milestone for the 2027-spec effort.
