The recent EA Sports WRC Le Maestros content pack has proven popular, but is missing one thing: Sebastien Loeb. Here are some OverTake community mods that restore the champion's name into the game.
Earlier this week, we took a look at the recently launched Le Maestros DLC for EA Sports WRC. Featuring a collection of cars following the careers of both Sebastien Loeb and Ogier, we enjoyed what the content pack had to offer.
However, a particular downfall prevented us from giving the DLC a perfect score. It turns out that for some reason - no doubt a licensing complication - the nine-time World Rally Champion, Sebastien Loeb, is missing from liveries and driver suits.
Thankfully, however, the OverTake community has been quick to react, putting together a collection of fixes to the liveries and drivers available in the Le Maestros pack, restoring the Frenchman's name to the game.

In total, four Sebastien Loeb liveries are available, three of which feature on the famous DS3 he raced between 2011 and 2013. Liveries for both his 2012 and 2013 cars are available to download, with the addition of the gold design the Frenchman returned to for a one-off run at the 2015 Monte Carlo event.
The livery packs also include other famous faces like Loeb's long-time co-driver Daniel Elena and his teammates at Citroen throughout the years.
Whilst you will almost never notice the minor change of adding the correct names to each car, it is a nice detail to have that will elevate any screenshot and the UI experience.
Does Sebastien Loeb's absence upset you as much as it does us? Let us know in the comments.

Alongside an onslaught of mods adding this year's WRC Rally1 liveries to the title following their first competitive running at the Monte Carlo Rally last weekend, OverTake user @ytursunoff has redesigned liveries available for a pair of Sebastien Loeb's famous cars, namely his championship-winning Citroën DS3.Mods restore Sebastien Loeb to EA Sports WRC.
