HORAG takes delivery of its Ligier JS P4 on the Magny-Cours F1 circuit

Swiss Company Horag, which has been a Ligier brand ambassador for years, was recently named an Official Ligier Partner (read the article HERE). The company, in charge of selling the brand's racing cars on its territory and supplying technical assistance and a spare parts service, has chosen the Ligier JS P4 to develop its partnership with the French make.

On 3rd March a rendezvous was arranged with Horag on the Magny-Cours F1 circuit in France for a day of tests organised by Ligier Automotive. Horag arrived with its Ligier JS53 Evo 2 and took advantage of this occasion to give its clients who had travelled to the circuit the opportunity to test the Ligier JS P320. It also enabled Horag to take delivery of its Ligier JS P4.

“We've chosen the Ligier JS P4 because it's a real sports prototype at a much more reasonable price than others, and it also provides matchless safety for drivers thanks to its all-carbon monocoque,” explains Benjamin Hotz, the CEO of Horag Hotz Racing AG, who did several laps in the Ligier JS P4. “In addition, it has a futuristic Hypercar look about it. The aim with this car is of course to race it, but also to promote it and rent it to interested clients. With features like the rearview camera and power steering it's as if you were installed in an LMP2. You feel you're in a pro driver's car and you really enjoy yourself behind the wheel. But it also works equally well for debutants because its 330 bhp and its weight make it very easy to control. And the centrifugal clutch is very useful for neophyte drivers!”

Horag has already planned to hold several test days to help its clients to familiarise themselves with the Ligier JS P4; and it plans to enter the car for at least one race in the Ligier European Series to discover the championship. Horag is also thinking about racing in the Sports Car Challenge / P9 Championship.

Horag test days:

  • 4-5 May at Monza
  • 17-18 May at Hockenheim
  • Mid-June at Brno
  • 2-4 July at Lausitz/Berlin
  • 24/25 August at the Red Bull Ring
  • 3-4 November at Grobnik/Rijeka for the Horag Test Days
