Chagin comments on this year’s Dakar

Vladimir Chagin instructs his team

Vladimir Chagin, the undisputed Tsar of the Dakar
By Tim Sturtridge on 4 January 2014 in Rally Raid
We get inside the grill of the most successful single category pilot in the history of the Dakar.
RedBull.com: It was a job well done last time out with three Kamaz trucks on the podium, are you confident of your drivers achieving the same result in 2014?
Vladimir Chagin: I was very satisfied to see our drivers winning all three places on the podium. We even surprised ourselves with this achievement but we soon turned our focus to next year. We want to prove that the results last time out did not come by accident and that our new generation of drivers can be even more successful than the last. I have great respect for our competitors such as Tatra and Iveco and I’m fully aware that they will have been working as hard as we have in preparation for the 2014 Dakar. We’re expecting a very interesting race and we will do our best to delight our fans once again.
