The organizers have increased a part of the route which passes across Chile, and have come on the north where they offer us interesting sands and dunes, not conceding by size to the well-known African Mauritian sands. The battle will be serious; the competition will amplify this year. But at the same time it means also the growth of interest to this race, to struggle which will be in the trucks category and to Dakar on the whole. We go to the race with enlarged team: four racing trucks. To the skilled crews - ChaginSavostin-Shajsultanov; Kabirov-Beljaev-Mokeev; Mardeev-Demyanenko-Mardeev, - the youth three is added: Nikolaev-Mizyukaev-Rybakov. It is very serious stage in life of our team; the new generation of sportsmen will battle for honour of the team in the most important competition for us – Dakar. Besides, two our trucks are in the other teams. It is very pleasant that the teams X-Raid and Kazakhstan team Astana have addressed for our help. And we took the responsibility seriously to be useful for them. I’m sure that the KAMAZ truck is the most advanced truck for the participation in the rally raids. And all those who will choose KAMAZ for sports, for participation in Dakar or Silk Way Rally, will have certain advantages and will not regret about that. And we will receive the experience in the work with client teams. So, the vehicles and people are ready. Now we need a good luck and the fans support. Good luck!

Ready for Dakar!
Welcome to Naberezhnye Chelny!
The KAMAZ-Master team is an unsurpassed leader on top of the world's sports teams rating. The history of KAMAZ-Master is a story of outstanding success of Russian motorsport. KAMAZ-Master is a three-times World Cup winner in off-road racing; nine times the team won the transcontinental Dakar Rally (first participation in 1990 first win in 1996) which belongs to the highest dificulty class, not to mention numerous other prizes. Today the team comprises five World Cup winners, eight unternational masters of sport, and six merited masters of sprots. It includes more «stars» than any other team in the history of Russian motorsport. The names of Semyon Yakubov, Vladimir Chagin, Ilgizar Mardeev, Firdaus Kabirov are well-known to every motorsport fan. In 2010, the team won the Dakar Rally for the ninth time! Nine victories of one team is a record for trucks! Meanwhile, Vladimir Chagin has an absolute personal record — 6 Dakar victories and 56 Dakar stage wins. No other truck racer in the world can boast such number of victories! For their outstanding contribution to Russian motorsport and numerous rally victories the Kamaz star racers received many awards from the Russian government. The fact that their performance is so highly appreciated and acknowledged by the highest authorities makes every member of the team feel especially proud of themselves, of KAMAZ and of the whole country they represent in international sport competitions.
Naberezhnye Chelny is second city in size only to Kazan, the capital of the Tatarstan. Its population is about half a million. People of more than sixty nationalities live here. The city has two parts: the old and the new. The New Town owes its existence to KAMAZ, whose construction began in December, 1969. The history o Naberezhnye Chelny is interesting and romantic. In the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, in the times of Kazan khanate, those vast territories belonged to the khan. But about three hundred and forty years ago, in 1552, to be more exact when Kazan was conquered by the army of Russian tsar Ivan the Terrible, these territories became the tsar’s property. As time passed the left bank of the River Kama became covered with settlements of Russia migrants. Many of those settlements were called Chelny, which means “canoes”. That explains the name of the modern city which has taken the place of those settlements: “Canoes on the Bank”. The Kama is not a Russian name. The Udmurts and the Komi who have been living along the banks of the Kama since olden days call it “kam” or “kuma” which means “river”. That is how the word “KAMAZ” became the name of our trucks. Now we see a modern whitestoned city where old “Chelny” was once situated. So that the city’s air can be clean and the people can rest peacefully after work, all enterprises have been built beyond the city’s boundaries, in a special industrial zone. The Beghishevo International airport is not far from Chelny. Also there is Nizhnekamskaya hydro-electric power station, it’s one of many stations built on the Kama. Our city is often called “a city of the future” because the most up-to-date town-planning ideas are being realized here and there is still much more to be built.

Family status:
It is certainly no easy matter to enter a worldclass team, but it is much harder to gain the right to participate in the most significant competitions of the sports year, such as the Dakar rally, in a relatively short time. Ildar Shaysultanov, who joined the team in 2002, managed to gain it. Being a high-qualified and enterprising truck repair and service specialist with a power of concentration in most difficult situations, he was noticed very soon.

The first «tests» showed that by selecting Shaysultanov the team leaders made the right choice. As a physically strong person, during the rally he had to perform the most tiring and exhausting parts of the job like changing wheels and suspension mounts, or repairing the axles. Suffise it to say that sometimes truck gear units that weigh about 170 kg each have to be changed in the field. Mechanics like Ildar Shaysultanov literally carry out a very heavy job.

No matter what race he took part in, he always demonstrated courage, selflessness, and exceptional will to win which helped him to get over all the obstacles a race truck pilot may face. The job of the pilot is very special. He is fully responsible for the results of the whole crew’s work, and, moreover, for their lives. For a race truck is driven under extreme road conditions and often at extreme speeds, when any minor mistake, any inaccurate turn of the steering wheel and any late reaction can cause a tragedy.

Date/place of birth : December 11, 1965/ Kazan
In 1991 Aydar Belyaev began to work at KAMAZ as a design engineer of the special vehicles department in the research and development center. He started to prepare KAMAZ trucks for international competitions virtually from the very beginning of his career. Then he headed the highway tractor team which took part in the Europe Touring Car Championship. Since 1994 the KAMAZ sports department concentrated on the preparation for participation in international marathon rallies.
Family status:
Since 1996 he has been a sports crew co-pilot and has been constantly showing his perfect navigation skills. The job of a sports truck co-pilot is very special. It takes not only flawless knowledge of navigation instruments and the correct «reading» of the route legend, but also a special co-pilot’s intuition to define the correct route which can be thousands of kilometers long and goes completely off-road through sands, mountains, canyons, forests and savannas. For example, during the Paris-Dakar Rally which lasts over two weeks the crew has to travel from 300 to over 1000 kilometers every day. Even a minor mistake of the co-pilot can undermine a many days’ work of the crew. It often happens that after many thousands of kilometers the winner crews’ results differ by a few seconds. A navigational mistake means irretrievable loss of time or, in the worst but more common case, an accident with any possible consequences.

Today, Aydar Belyaev, the co-pilot in the team KAMAZ-Master sports crew, is one of the best copilots among the competitors of international rallies.

A little later Vladimir got a chance to make his long-cherished dream come true and take part in competitions as a pilot, so he started to construct a buggy in the office basement. The management appreciated his persistence and enthusiasm and supported his idea, so the future vehicle was taken upstairs and fully assembled. Later he took part in several stages of the Russian Motocross Championship with that vehicle. As he got more experienced, Vladimir became a mechanic and participated in nationwide competitions and European Cup Motocross Races. Luckily, he was invited to work as a mechanic with a perspective pilot (currently six-times champion of Russia) Valentin Nikolaev. During his work for KAMAZ-Master team Vladimir accepted the invitation to join Eduard Nikolaev’s crew as a mechanic without hesitating. The debut of the new crew was a success and they took first place at the rally raid SILK WAY RALLY Dakar Series in 2010.
