Team ASRT had eventful rally race in Russia

Previous two weeks team ASRT had busy time in Russia, taking the test drive and participating in two rally races. 
Dmitriy Feofanov and his co-driver Dmitriy Chumak (Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X) had started Russian Cup stage "Rally Golubie Ozera" , where driver reached 3rd place in the overall standing.

The crew acknowledged that this was great practice before "Rally Liepaja" where crew will participate for the very first time.

After team ASRT started to prepare for Russian Rally Championship's 3rd stage "Rally Gukovo". On that stage they've started with two crews - Sergey Popov/Andrey Galkevich (Skoda Fabia R5) and Petr Turkin/Vasiliy Mirkotan (Peugeot 208 R2). Popov's crew before this rally have done massive three days test drive, what made them very well prepared for this rally.

In general rally turned very interesting at the same time tragically. Popov started with excellent timing at 1st stage showing the best time, but unfortunately at 3rd stage after one of jump crew had a serious crash. Luckily both of team members are safe and well what we can't say about  the car.

Meanwhile Turkin's crew got a convincing victory at R2 class, which made a triumph in teams standing.

Now team returning back to Latvia to start preparing for "Rally Liepaja" where they'll participate with two crews - Ralfs Sirmacis/Ralfs Igavens (Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X) and Dmitriy Feofanov with co-driver Dmitriy Chumak while Turkin's crew will take a part at "Russian Rally Championship " at the same weekend.
