Racing Team Jagu is a French rallycross team who have been loyal to
Audi for many years. The team competed in the French Rallycross Championship
with a first generation Audi A3 until 2011. They sold their A3 to another competitor during 2012 as they were preparing a new machine for 2013.
Towards the end of 2012 Racing Team Jagu announced that they had acquired
an Audi A1 which would be prepared for the 2013 French Rallycross
Championship. The car’s development looked promising, as this smallest of Audi road
cars was turned into a rallycross machine. More about the development can be
read HERE.
The French Rallycross Championship gets underway this coming weekend, with the “Rallycross des Ducs” event. Two Audis will be present at the season opener. It will be the debut for the Jagu Audi A1, which will compete in the Super 1600 class. The second Audi will be the ex-Jagu Audi A3 which is driven by Jimmy Terpereau in the Division 4 class.
