WRC: Loeb continues with the brake problem

Thursday, July 28, 2011, 16: 48 GMT

Sebastien Loeb will begin the third stage of the Rally of Finland with only three brakes Ford Fiesta RS WRC.

The Finnish has been working on the car from complete SS2, but is expected to lose more time through the following test. Juha damaged the rear right of the car in the opening stage when he lost power and could not keep the feast on the road. He left more time in stage two, when the right rear wheel had locked solid and had punctured the shot.

Loeb has reached the beginning of SS3, having worked extensively in the car. It has blocked the right rear brake and bled the system. The disc and brake caliper have passed from the right and rear and the damper is held only by a support - and also has a transmission damaged in that corner.

Loeb is 32nd overall 1m29s, against the initiative. Fortunately for the 2009 winner of the Rally of Finland, the stage of Laajavuori is only 2.60 miles long and cars returned to duty after the test.
