Seb Loeb is a pretty close second. Isn't it time for him to go to F1 with all the other asshole Sebastians?

And what the hell is with the FIA these days? Do they really feel the need to micromanage EVERY aspect of motor racing right down to what kind of facial hair the drivers have? It's bad enough that they change the formula of both F1 and WRC EVERY DAMN YEAR!! No wonder manufacturers keep dropping out of the WRC...every time they spend money developing a new car, the rules change and they're forced to make changes to meet the whim of some wanker in a suit.

I can't believe this is an issue. The dude is a rally rockstar, and rockstars don't have to shave if they don't want to. What's next, when they cam Marcus Grönholm they're going to ask him to not be so Finnish because it's weird and sets a 'strange' example for children? Oh, and by all means, let's start removing tattoos on professional athletes as well. These whiners must be related to the FL Senator who banned truck nuts.

Loeb should put truck nuts on his rally car in protest, that will show 'em.
