Jabouille's car and engine proved highly unreliable and became something of a joke during its first races, earning the nickname of "Yellow Teapot" and failing to finish any of its races despite being extremely powerful.
O coche e o motor de Jabouille demostraron ser moi pouco fiables e convertéronse nunha especie de broma durante as súas primeiras carreiras, gañando o alcume de "a teteira amarela" e non terminou ningunha das súas carreiras malia ser moi potente.
