Seven-time Dakar champion Chagin left his post as head of the KAMAZ-master team

Vladimir Chagin left the post of head of the KAMAZ-master team, according to the team’s website.

The seven-time Dakar Rally champion will focus on the Silk Way Rally project, but will continue to work as a team to continue sharing experience and advice with the team. Chagin will be replaced in his position by Eduard Nikolaev, who won the Dakar five times.

“KAMAZ-master” is the most dear business to me, to which I owe, perhaps, everything achieved in my life. Now, when the management sets me new tasks, I believe that this unique sports and production team should develop even more rapidly and achieve new goals. The slogan “Make way for the young!” more relevant than ever.

The participation of young leaders in any process always gives a new impetus to development, and now is the time for non-standard modern approaches. Today’s challenges require new energy and intensive work,” said 53-year-old Chagin.

Chagin has worked with the KAMAZ-master team since its founding in 1988 and has led it for the past 11 years. He won the Dakar Rally truck category in 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2010 and 2011.

    Montanessa played harder in the first half, but no clear chances were created and the first half ended like this.

    After the restart, the local team had a good chance with a wide deflection from Elhadj to goalkeeper Estevez, but Elhadj himself then scored the opening goal. And just four minutes later, he scored a double. Just when it looked like ‘Monta’ had the collision back on track, Nico Aguzzi closed the gap. This goal gave the team momentum, and in added time Rukisi’s header equalized the score.

    PHOTOGRAPH. Red Bull will finally update its livery. Back to the classics

    There are growing rumors in the paddock that Red Bull is preparing to make a radical change to the livery of its car for the first time since 2015.

    Ten years ago the Austrians created a design that they use today almost unchanged, with minor adjustments to the layout of elements and changes to the composition of sponsors.

    According to multiple sources, the team decided to finally update its look, going back closer in spirit to the first look, inspired by the design of Red Bull energy drink cans. The team itself is already talking about this design on social networks and periodically directs its fans to it.

    Let’s remember that the team was supposed to present its new uniform on January 15 at an event in the USA where Ford will also show off the design of the youth team. Due to the difference in time zones, the live broadcast of the event will start at 05:00 Kyiv time.

    Red Bull abandoned the radical decision. What is the reason?

    Red Bull Ford seems to have decided to slow down with one of the most radical technical solutions on the eve of the start of the new regulations. The concept in question is an engine concept with an extreme 1:18 compression ratio, which is seen as a potential loophole in the regulations.

    According to information received from the paddock, this configuration is not planned to be used in tests in Barcelona. The reason is quite ordinary; The risk level is very high. Although engineers expected a noticeable increase in power, at the same time serious doubts were raised about the stability of the engine in racing conditions.

    The team fears that relying on aggressive architecture could lead to a wave of power unit failures early in the season. Therefore, the version that Red Bull Ford is ready to move away from this idea altogether, preferring a more balanced and predictable solution, is now increasingly heard.
