Loeb focused on victory at Rally Ireland

Sebastien Loeb is preparing to take his second chance and is focused on victory when the duel for the World Rally Championship resumes in Ireland.

Reigning champion Loeb had the top of the drivers' standings in his sights in the last round in Japan after Finland's Marcus Gronholm had crashed out - but the Frenchman suffered the same fate as his fiercest rival and he has promised to atone for the error in Sligo as he pursues a fourth consecutive title.
