Sébastien Loeb came very close to a huge disappointment on Saturday during the Kenya Rally.
While he was fighting at the wheel of the Ford Puma to try to move up the rankings after being the victim of a mechanical breakage on Thursday, the nine-time world champion broke a few cold sweats in a special.
The first heat stroke occurred when a zebra, frightened, appeared on the right of the track to cross the track, before, fortunately, turning back.
At the wheel of his racing car, the Alsatian had fortunately swerved to the side to avoid the animal.
Barely recovered from this emotion, the French driver (10th at 33'01'' from the leader Kalle Rovanpera on Saturday evening) had the right to a second unexpected encounter, with a giraffe, which calmly crossed the road a few seconds before the passage of the crew, forced to slow down a little.
