Default WTF? The FIA denies Sebastien Loeb a Superlicense??
Ok, the guy has won the FIA's World Rally Championship SIX TIMES, driving on gravel, ice, mud, clinging to the sides of cliffs, blasting through forests... he has also finished second overall at the 24 Hours Of LeMans... AND he has won The Race Of Champions three times, beating several F1 drivers each time. Yet, he cannot take part in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix driving the Torro Rosso because the FIA have denied his application for a Superlicense.

Is this because he backed Ari Vatanen in his failed bid to be elected president of the FIA instead of Max's stooge Jean Todt?
