Lion Truck Racing
- TruckMAN
Through his passion for trucks and his involvement in the transport industry, its late owner, monsieur Patrick Folléas, who sadly passed away in January 2020 acquired the Lion Truck Racing team in 2012. An outstanding entrepreneur and boss, he quickly became a pillar of truck racing and lead his team to 6 French Championship titles in only 8 years.
The team is managed by Jonathan André and the engineering is taken care of by Pascal Calas.
Lyon based Lion Truck Racing and Frenchman Anthony Janiec have been racing in the ETRC since 2015.
In his first season with Lion Truck Racing in 2015 Janiec finished 7th in the ETRC overall standings, which included taking a memorable win and a second place on home ground at Nogaro as well as two third places.
Janiec kicked off the 2016 season with a second place at the opening race in Austria, scoring 3 more podiums and a victory at Jarama to finish sixth overall.
In 2017 Janiec competed in just the Nurburgring rounds but saw success with a third and second place finish.
The Frenchman took part in only a few rounds of the 2018 season yet he managed to finish on the podium at Misano and took a fine victory at the Nürburgring. In 2019 Anthony contested half the races scoring one podium finish at Misano.
The Lion Truck Racing team entered a few races in 2021 with Anthony Janiec scoring a personal best fourth place at Most.
The French outfit is back for a full season in 2022.
