Jutta’s first professional rally came in 1993, as co-driver in the car of her then partner, Jean-Louis Schlesser, in the UAE Desert Challenge. Jutta soon became a member of the rallying elite winning race after race firstly as a motorcyclist, then co-driver and finally as a driver in her own right. In 2002, she signed a contract with Volkswagen to try to win the Dakar Rally with a diesel-powered car. In 2006, she joined Sven Quandt’s X-raid team.
