SÃ©bastien Loeb Thrills Argentina!

IN WRC, 2011, Argentina

CitroÃ«n drivers SÃ©bastien Ogier and Julien Ingrassia dropped time in the final stages to hand victory to team-mates SÃ©bastien Loeb and Daniel Elena on the very last stage.

Right from the start, it was a relatively trouble-free run from pole to chequered flag for Imperatori, with the exception of a hairy moment when the race leader caught up with back markers in the latter stages of the 12-lap race. However behind him, it was a repeat of Round 3's white-knuckle battle between Sawa and Avila. Avila got away well from the second row and, as Sawa challenged Imperatori for the lead off the line, the Macau racer was able to charge round the outside and into second, albeit briefly. The Japanese ace reclaimed the position by turn four, and from there Avila relentlessly piled on the pressure. The trio were nose to tail in the early stages before the lightning-quick Imperatori pulled out a modest gap.

With the film set in Brazil, the album is filled with a mix of Portuguese tracks too, ranging from the ethnic “Carlito Marron” by Bahia musician Carlinhos Brown, the rap-tastic “Batalha” by ObandO or the joyful “Danza Kuduro” by Don Omar. Granted, most of us won't understand every single word sung in the song, but that doesn't mean that they don't make great music to groove with. Three instrumental scores from the movie, ranging to which range from pure epic-ness to down-and-gritty industrial rock are included in this CD. Produced by Brian Tyler, “Assembling the Team”, “Mad Skills” and “Fast Five Suite” are the tracks that shaped the atmosphere of this movie. This installment of the soundtrack is perhaps the most diverse in the Fast and Furious universe. From the moment we has this wonderful album in our car's stereo, we never ever, ever wanted to get out of our cars.

Here's the official tracklist of the CD:

1) How We Roll (Fast Five Remix)— Don Omar, Busta Rhymes, Reek da Villian and J-doe

2) Desabafo/Deixa Eu Dizer- Marcelo D2 & Claudia
