Viktor Shapovalov interview

Than the difference in speed in Ошерслебене between you and Yaap van Lagen speaks? He simply goes faster. In race I manage to lose less, and on qualification experience and experience of the Dutch on the European lines have an effect, after all Jaap van Lagen one of leaders of Supercup Porsche, support races «Formula 1». While with it there's nothing to be done, but we progress from a stage to a stage, and I hope and further to improve the results. Despite fast seconds on a line in the second race (van Lagen losses to leaders of 0,7 seconds on a circle), you finished in third ten. What has occurred? Both of us were mistaken. From the very beginning race for us developed unsuccessfully: we started in that number where cars in the first turn because of failure have practically stopped. In the following sheaf of turns who has struck that in a back part of my car, and I have taken off from a line. While went on gravel, has by passed all пелетон. Something similar has occurred and to my partner on command later. It is not too pleasant, therefore as van Lagen in the first race went very adequately. Moreover, it has outstripped James Thompson on Honda Accord preparation and a star world Turing Dunkan Huysman. It is impressing result for the first season of performances in the World championship. Whether any modernisations of the car before race in Imola will be spent? Possibly, we will have time to make nothing considering preparation of the third car and the efforts connected with participation in the Moscow motor show and presentation WTCC on Vasilevsky descent. Now we have already started to discuss a technical part of the program the next year with Open Society "AUTOVAZ". And with the existing car work on thin adjustment of the chassis and the motor under each concrete line still is necessary to us. On a stage the command will go to Imola without a spare body, whether causes in a fear command this fact? Yes, on the basis of a spare body the car in colours «Rosoboronexport» for factory pilot LADA Kirill Ladygin is collected. While we do not get to the epicentre of struggle of factory pilots, therefore our cars reach finish usually in relative safety. It is assured, that in Imola no problems with bodies at us will exist.
