Video: Sebastien Loeb narrowly misses Pikes Peak plonkers

Rallying superstar Sebastien Loeb covered all 156 corners of the gruelling 12.42-mile Pikes Peak hill climb route in just 8min 13.878secs at the weekend.

His expert driving skills and the unflappable performance of the 863bhp Peugeot 208 T16 meant the route's record – previously set by New Zealander Rhys Millen – was obliterated by 90 seconds.
