Loeb to replace Elena with Lurquin or Soultrait

About two months after the announcement of his separation with Daniel Elena, Sébastien Loeb has tested two possible replacements in recent days in Dubai for the Dakar 2022 with Prodrive: Belgian co-driver Fabian Lurquin and French motorcycle racer Xavier de Soultrait.

Sebastien Loeb:

In the last few weeks, we have analyzed the interesting and available profiles. I did a little test in Dubai with Fabian and Xavier to see how they are doing. The results are positive for both, knowing that one has experience in the car (Lurquin was co-driving with Mathieu Serradori) and the other is a fairly efficient motorcyclist in navigation. I'm going to give myself a few days to think about it, but a priori I should go with one of the two.
