Unilateral termination of contracts with by Formula 1 and other foreign racing series finally gave impetus to development of Russian motorsport, says TV channel’s general producer Alexandre Tachin .
On Monday, became a partner of the Rosgonki company, which will organize the sports and entertainment event GARAGE FEST Igora Drive 2023 in August.
— We are very happy to become an information partner of such a brilliant festival. It’s no secret that last year a number of foreign racing series terminated their contracts with us. But we believe that it not only had a negative effect, but also brought positive things. In particular, this gave a great impetus to the development of motorsport in Russia on our channel. Because we have never shown such a number of Russian episodes that we show both on federal and thematic channels,” Tashchin said at the ceremony.
GARAGE FEST Igora Drive 2023 will be held on August 5-6 at the Igora Drive Autodrom in St. Petersburg.
