Janis Baumanis joins Team JC

Le Team JC, which will operate Audi S1s in 2020 in the World Championship Rallycross World RX, has confirmed its second recruit for the current season.

Alongside Robin Larsson, Janis Baumanis, a member of Team STARD in 2019, will swap his Ford Fiesta which he took to the podium in Norway and Canada for an Audi S1 ​​with the latest specifications.

“I’m excited about a new season with a brand new team, comments Baumanis. JC Raceteknik and Robin showed last year that they had good pace in Euro RX, so this year I think we will be even stronger with two good cars in World RX.

I can't wait to drive the latest spec Audi with the latest shock absorbers from KYB. Robin certainly knows the car better than me, but I hope I can get into his rhythm as soon as possible. »

World RX also remains affected by the coronavirus pandemic, since the Barcelona and Montalegre rounds have already been postponed.
