Alexey Ershov: “We didn’t do a lot because of lack of time”.
(The Chief of RAF Rally Commetee)
We were interested to know an opinion of people who were directly preparing the “Novorossiisk” rally. In this regard it would be wrong to bypass such a person as Alexey Ershov who literally designed the rally with his own hands.

Irina Kolomeytseva: «We need a team victory!»
Because of the overlapping dates of the next stage of Russian and Ukrainian rally championships crew of Alexander Zheludov and Irina Kolomeytseva faced the problem: which race to choose? On the one hand, the crew early wins Russian drivers’ championship, so they could miss the final stage in Russia's Pskov region. On the other – “Moscow-Odessa” crew has nothing to loose in Ukrainian championship, so the price of rally «Chernivtsi-600» was very low too.
