Results "Arktik Trofi 2017"

THE RACE "ARKTIK TROFI" WAS TEMPORARILY LEFT BY ONE MORE CREW

Fight for superiority in the races "Arktik Trofi" is more and more intense. The day before on lack of roads of the Kirov and Apatity district the third stage took place and following the results the list of leaders cardinally changed. Only on September 3 from Kandalaksha went to trofi-raid, we will remind, thirteen teams. However now "in a system" – eleven.

"Dark horse" – team апатитчан which didn't concede on speed to two champion crews from Moscow – didn't reach the finish, having damaged a radiator.

"The team from Apatity wasn't let to the finish by the polutoratonny boulder which hid in a pool, – the director of Arktik Trofi club told, – the truth, the pool was about the small lake. Therefore remained to be repaired in the wood".

As a result the first, as well as in last stage, two capital teams finished. However at one of them chances of a victory sharply decreased: on the way at Nimal the gearbox glitched. It didn't stop champions of Russia – according to Vladimir Ezhov, for the first time for all history "Arktik Trofi" the car after damage continued a way by back run and in the same way crossed the finish.

Other question – whether participants will manage to repair "Toyota Land Cruiser" before the following start. Depends on it what to apply for Russian-Norwegian "Viking" who since the beginning of competitions pursues Muscovites and апатитчан. Because of the "Dark horse" which remained in the wood, the foreign crew took the third place, having released the fourth for the new leader – the Murmansk Gulf Stream team. Most likely, participants already like the known, but not "worn out" in trofi-raids yet wisdom: Easy does it. According to organizers, in the first stage they rushed with a speed, considerable for lack of roads, – about 80 km/h, and "now are accurately stolen".

The fourth stage which will add sports intrigues starts around Kuelporr base in Khibiny Mountains tomorrow. And today – day of repairs and rest: participants "Arktik Trofi" plan an excursion to the Kirov underground mine. Perhaps, Norwegians from the All Black team who get out of the wood now will manage to join them. Having left at the second stage and having carried out more than a day in a solitude, all of them could get "Mersedes".

"Minus one": the car of the Norwegian team "Arktik Trofi" died out in the wood, owners on foot went for the help.

Organizers of "Arktik Trofi" didn't manage to praise fail-safety of current races as the Norwegian team "All Black" was overtaken by the first autobreakdown.

"Mercedes" of the Norwegian team refused to be got... Organizers solve how to return the car from the Kola jungle", – the director of Arktik Trofi club Vladimir Ezhov wrote in social networks.

The car of Norwegians died out in the wood the night before and still it couldn't be reanimated: the starter which participants withdrew "died" and today on foot carried by 10 km to the closest camp of organizers. From there gave a ride to two participants of team to Apatity where they hope for the help of local mechanics. "From the Kola jungle" Norwegians refuse evacuation of the car, being going to continue participation in a race. So far other 12 teams started without them this morning, overcoming obstacles already of the third stage of competitions.

We will remind, competitions on northern lack of roads "Arktik Trofi" began on September 3 and will come to the end the 9th. During this time participants under the Russian and Norwegian flags have to pass about 400 km from the coast of the Barents Sea, White to coast. The promptest in the previous stages recognized team апатитчан, two crews from Moscow and one of six Norwegian teams. However if someone's car doesn't pass test lack of roads, the list of leaders can cardinally change.

"Arktik Trofi": also Muscovites fight for the first place to the apatitchena

The second day on northern lack of roads there take place legendary competitions "Arktik Trofi" in which 13 crews participate. Four teams are in the lead: "Dark horse" from Apatity, Nimal and "Crew 14" from Moscow (both champions of Russia represent) and the Russian-Norwegian Viking duet. The day before in Kandalaksha the first stage started. Following the results the first "Viking" and Muscovites finished to the apatitchena, with an insignificant separation of profit behind them. Today the second stage in which capital teams won the first and second places took place. Organizers note a part, rare for trofi-raids: all participants keep within test time, and it means that major damages of cars weren't yet. Any breakdown in way can steal on repair many hours, having cardinally changed the list of leaders. As well as last night which is coming participants will be spent in the wood, and tomorrow will continue races. They are expected by four more days of competitions and four more extended, almost impassable sites on the way to the coast of the Barents Sea.

Behind a victory thirteen cars went to the Arctic trofi-raid

Participants arrived in the city the day before to undergo registration and checkup of cars – regarding compliance to criteria of trofi-raid. Today the final list of teams became known – from stated early to fourteen thirteen will fight for a victory: 6 Norwegian, 2 Moscow, 2 Murmansk, 2 Apatity and 1 of Kandalaksha.
