Loeb out of WRC thanks to bicycle accident

Can you believe this? Sebastian Loeb had the WRC championship virtually locked up for Citroen, and then he breaks his arm riding a bike! Talk about bad luck!

In any event, Colin McRae , pictured to the right, (remember him from the X-Games last month, in which he rolled the STI he was piloting—and still finished in what has to be one of the most incredible bits of racing I've ever seen) will fill in while Loeb is on the mend. No word yet as to whether Loeb will be able to return to the WRC this year...

Bummer, very ironic, too.
 
McRae is past his prime but is still capable, as he proved in Rally X.
