Loeb slides to Argentina triumph 
France's Sebastien Loeb won his fourth 
straight Rally of Argentina to take the 
lead in the overall standings. 

The Citroen driver, who also won the 
previous round in Mexico, finished two 
minutes and 33 seconds ahead of Aussie 
Chris Atkinson in a Subaru. 

Loeb's team-mate, Spain's Dani Sordo, 
took third place on another tricky day 
in the rain and mud around Cordoba. 

"I like difficult conditions but I 
thought today's were the hardest I've 
ever faced," said Loeb. 

                                       
Schumacher fourth in bike debut 
Seven-time Formula One champion Michael 
Schumacher finished fourth in his first 
competitive motorbike race. 

The 39-year-old, who was third in 
qualifying, recorded the second-fastest 
lap in the minor series event at the 
Misano circuit in Italy. 

He was blocked in at the first corner 
and slipped down to 10th place but 
battled back through the field to 
finish just outside the podium places. 

Schumacher rode a 990cc KTM Super Duke 
in the 10-lap KTM Trophy race.
