Zenit defender Dmitry Chistyakov shared his impressions of a test drive in the cockpit of a KAMAZ-master team racing truck.
On Friday, a test drive of KAMAZ vehicles took place at the Gazprom Arena. In addition to three new trucks, a sports car of the K5 family – KAMAZ-435091, which was presented by the KAMAZ-master team led by pilot Dmitry Sotnikov, took part in it.
— What emotions did you experience while in the cockpit?
“I would like to immediately thank the organizers for the invitation. It’s cool, they took us for a ride a little. We picked up speed and swayed from side to side. Feels good.
— How do you like the idea of constantly arriving at the stadium in KAMAZ trucks?
— You always have to come in KAMAZ trucks (laughs).
— Would it be interesting to take part in the race?
— Yes, we rode here on a straight road and smooth asphalt, we got emotions. It would be interesting to try yourself on the dunes, in competitions,” a Match TV correspondent reports Chistyakov’s words.
