After his start at the penultimate event of the FIA World Rally Championship season at the Rally Spain (22-25 October), Jari-Matti Latvala (FIN) will head straight to his next event. From 29 to 31 October, the championship runner-up will compete in the 18th edition of the International Lausitz Rally (D).
Latvala will take to the track in the legendary Audi A2 quattro. “I am really looking forward to the Lausitz Rally already,” said Latvala. “The Audi quattro gives rally fans real goosebumps because it was as spectacular as it was successful in the 1980s. Sitting behind the wheel is a real pleasure.”
The car belongs to Latvala, was built to be used in classic rallies and conforms to the Group B specification. A total of 18 special stages with around 180 timed kilometres almost exclusively on gravel are on the itinerary for the Lausitz Rally.
