Indian Motorcycle confirmed last Friday that the lucky winner of the custom FTR Loeb was Martin W, from Toulouse. After a three-month campaign, Martin was randomly selected from more than 9 people in 000 countries who registered and took a test drive in an Indian FTR to enter the drawing.
Martin said: “ The day I got the call that I had won the FTR Loeb, I couldn't believe it. I thought it couldn't be me, but it was. I told myself that I had made the right choice by booking my FTR test this famous Saturday morning. A big fan of motor sports and having also worked in this field, I couldn't believe that Sébastien Loeb and I were going to ride on the same motorcycle. He is a renowned driver who I admire and whom I enjoyed following throughout his career. I had a lot of fun riding the bike during the test and I can't wait to discover the Loeb FTR at Wheels and Waves 2023 in Biarritz. »
