Work on the preparation of Kamazov trucks for high -speed races and participating in them as a mechanic, Savostin began in the year.

Since the year, he is already densely engaged in the development of KAMAZ sports cars and their preparation for international rally marathons. Many of its original technical ideas, based on personal experience of a sports crew mechanics, found their embodiment in racing trucks. In the year, he became a mechanic of the Troika Chagin-Yakubov-Savostin, who after four years will begin his series of victories in Dakar, and will become truly gold for the Kamaz-Master team.

The unshakable triumvirate of the crew of the racing truck is a pilot, navigator, mechanic. When this ligament is marked by the highest professional skill and higher human qualities of each crew member, only then can you count on success in such a multi -day and exhausting race, like a rally, a length of thousands of kilometers. Exceptional professional knowledge and skills, physical endurance and psychological stability, the ability to work in an extent rhythm, much exceeding all existing standards.

All these qualities are fully inherent in Sergey Savostin and not once manifested themselves in the most seemingly hopeless situations. And there were many of them in the sports fate of Sergei Savostin. The truck of Vladimir Chagin, whose permanent mechanic has been Sergey Savostin for many years, having made a jump on the road fortifice at a great speed landed in a hole.

A terrible blow stops the movement of a multi -ton car: it is out of order of steering rods, bending! All these inhuman overloads fall on the crew, which, nevertheless, overcoming the pain, finds the strength to "revive" the truck and get to the finish of the stage. The conclusion of doctors is unequivocal: with such injuries as that of Sergey Savostin, who has serious damage to the rib and kidney injury, further participation in the rally is impossible.

Only one road is to the hospital. But the Kamazovsky mechanic makes his personal, only and final decision - not to withdraw the crew from the game and continue the race. And in front of another 14 difficult stages and 8 thousand exhausting kilometers on African off -road. The main salvation is painkillers and superhuman exposure in conditions when he had to bear the whole burden of the mechanic on the highway during the day, and at night - all the burden of bivouic repair work.

And then there will be the “gold” of the next dacara and the triumphal, the fifth victory of the Kamaz-Master team in this very complex and extreme supermarataphone. From G. Sergey begins to travel to rally-raids by the navigator, moving to a new stage in the development of his sports career. In the year, as part of the crew of Chagin, he becomes a silver medalist, and in and in gg.

In years, the team headed for rejuvenation. The pilots armchair were occupied by young athletes. Experienced navigators became mentors in the crews. In the year, the three Eduard Nikolaev-Sergea Savostin-Vladimir Rybakov took first place on the Dakar rally, no matter how the situation on the highway was formed, no matter who was an opponent, the goal for each Kamaz-Master team was always unchanged-the first to cross the finish line.

And always at the limit of the capabilities of the car and their own, and often behind this limit. This is the main criterion of any victory in big sport, and the personal criterion of Sergey Savostin, where the Konu has its own sports authority, the trust of the team, and ultimately - a huge responsibility for its sports work, which allows Russia to remain a great sports power.
