Ruslan Furundzhi/Maxim Ivanov - the crew which made first appearance of the new Isuzu D-Max car (Class T2) in Russian rally-raids. It happened on Baja Karelia which was held last weekend. .
The G-Force Motorsport team was waiting for its crew - Alexey Denisov/Dmitriy Kozhukhov (№219, class Т2) - with poorly hidden anxiety and fingers crossed. It was the fight for a podium place.

Black clouds are gathering above the route. First drops of rain are falling from the sky. And first crews have already started their final passage through the stage.
