Leader and pilot of the Belarusian team “MAZ-SPORTavto” Sergei Viazovitch spoke to reporters about the misunderstanding with the judiciary and said he was happy the Silk Road was over.
– In the second part of the distance, there was another misunderstanding with the referees. We touched the wheel two kilometers before the finish line, pulled to the finish line, took the finish spot in lineout and stopped for a change. We slowly changed the wheel, arrived at the stop, they told us that they would set us the stop time. I don’t understand. Then everyone looks at the time on the instruments, they penalize us, and when the finish line, there the instrument doesn’t count. I’m glad this hell is over. We didn’t get any pleasure from the race,” Vyazovich said.
The winner of the Silk Way rally-raid was the crew of the KAMAZ-master team led by Dmitry Sotnikov. In the overall standings, Sotnikov was more than an hour ahead of his KAMAZ-master team partner Eduard Nikolaev. Third place goes to Viazovich.
