Winner of the European and Asian Le Mans Series and the World Endurance Championship Roman Rousinov after finishing the first stage of the Silk Way Rally, he shared his emotions from the beginnings of the marathon.
The first stage of the Silk Way Rally on the Kazan-Ufa route will take place on Friday. The distance of the special is 142 kilometers.
— What are your impressions of the first stage of the Silk Road in your career?
– Alright. There were a lot of fords, the water was flooded, it didn’t smell very good.
— You have already taken part in a rally-raid, but are your expectations very far from reality?
– Everything is very cool, good. It was not clear why our car was pulling to the left. I thought it was a flat tire, but everything seems to be fine. Gonna have to deal with that.
How would you rate the difficulty of the trail?
– The track is very interesting. There were enough running gear, but we couldn’t accelerate because of the cars ahead of us. There are some interesting traps on the trail, really difficult fords. When we entered the first ford, no one could figure out where the button was to turn on the brooms (laughs). And so all is well.
Did you find a common language with the browser?
Yes, I scolded him ten times.
– Why?
– For having spoken badly.
Will you find mutual understanding until tomorrow?
– Certainly.
– Are you going to analyze the behavior of the sailor at the bivouac?
“He actually did a good job. We just got lost a few times because we didn’t know where to turn. We went right, but we should have gone, we lost ten seconds. And at the finish line, I slowed down earlier, because I didn’t know what color I needed.
– There are a lot of spectators here, what does it do?
— Very cool, cool audience, good region. Meet up with the phones, stand the full length of the course. Thank you very much, – the correspondent conveys Rusinov’s words.
