    Sebastien Loeb won all three stages on Sunday to claim the title at the Rally Mexico.

    The four-time world champion from France finished the three-day rally in 3 hours, 33 minutes, 29.9 seconds. Chris Atkinson of Australia was second, 1:06.1 behind Loeb, and Jari Matti Latvala of Finland took third, 1:39.7 back.

    Organizers canceled the 18th stage, known as Guanajuatito, because too many spectators gathered along it and could be at risk.

    In January, Loeb won the Monte Carlo Rally for a record fifth time.

    Mikko Hirvonen of Finland was fourth, followed by Henning Solberg of Norway and Matthew Wilson of Britain.
