Alpega, at the heart of competition: why we chose Jennifer Janiec
She doesn't ask for permission to go fast. She earns it.
When we first met Jennifer Janiec, we saw someone who thinks the way we do. Pilote, mother, business leader, five-time French truck racing champion. Jennifer has built her entire career on one principle: nothing moves fast without what's underneath it. Not on a circuit. Not on the road. Not in freight.
A principle Alpega was built on.
A champion like no other
Jennifer Janiec started driving on circuit at 15. She trained in Formula Renault before discovering the world of truck racing: a loud, physical, overwhelmingly male environment where very few women have ever competed at the highest level.
She found her place there. Not by asking for permission. By earning the right to be there, race after race.
She paused her racing career to become a mother. She came back. And within a year of returning to the circuit, she won her first French championship title. Five titles since 2019.
Alongside racing, she runs Friaufer, her family's industrial business specialising in public works and scrap metal treatment. She holds a heavy goods vehicle licence. She knows what it means to run trucks for a living.
When we say Jennifer Janiec understands the transport industry, we mean it literally.
Why this partnership exists
Alpega is Europe's digital transport platform. We connect shippers, carriers, and freight forwarders across 80 countries through a vetted, open network built on 40 years of transport expertise.
Every day, thousands of loads need to find trucks. Thousands of trucks need to find loads. At the centre of every transaction, the same question, asked thousands of times a day: can I trust the partner on the other side?
That's the question Alpega was built to answer.
When we decided to partner with the Janiec Racing Team in 2026, it wasn't a marketing decision. It was a values decision. Jennifer's story is the most honest, human expression of what we believe: that trust is what makes speed real. That the people who go furthest are the ones who built the most solid foundation first.
She earns the right to go fast, every single time. So do we.
What this partnership looks like in practice
In 2026, Alpega is the official partner of the Janiec Racing Team across the full Championnat de France de Course de Camions season: six circuits, six opportunities to show up alongside the professionals who make European freight move.
On the circuit. On the road. Same principle, same payoff.
Trust at the speed of freight.
