The fifth stage of the rally took place on Tuesday on the route Kosh-Agach (Russia) – Khovd (Mongolia).
— All day there were fast roads with bushes, they became slow in the stones, there were also river beds, it was very dusty. The journey was somewhat limited because we saw Karginov’s truck lying down already in the first kilometers. The crew is fine. Then we walked at our own pace and saw Bogdan Karimov standing because of problems with the shock absorber. We stopped, released the shock absorber and continued on our way, “the correspondent reports, according to Nikolaev’s words.
Bogdan Karimov, master driver of KAMAZ, spoke about replacing two shock absorbers on the front wheel.
— There are many high-speed roads with very sharp large stones scattered around. It was necessary to drive carefully. Around the 20th kilometer, we felt that something was wrong with the suspension. We thought there was a problem with the cabin shock absorber. By that time, we were already approaching Dmitry Sotnikov, but the suspension shocks began to become more frequent – we decided to stop. We discovered that two shock absorbers of the right front wheel had been dismantled. Fortunately, there was one in stock, and the second one was from Nikolaev. Unfortunately, we lost time on this. Then we drove at a good pace, trying not to hesitate, ”Karimov said.
The Silk Road Rally crosses Russia and Mongolia and ends on July 15 in Ulaanbaatar.
