Eurolamp WRT has to do a few very important tasks before the start of the race of Rally Portugal. Team’s service zone preparations, the administrative and technique checkings, the race route recce, the shakedown – that is a usual list for every event of World Rally Championship. But in Portugal an extra point has been added to the tough pre-race schedule.

On Thursday Valery Gorban and Vladimir Korsia will have a little but very important photo session with other their colleagues – for Bigben Interactive S.A. company, which has started production of next release of WRC Official Video Game in partnership with developers of  Kylotonn Games company. The photo-materials, which will be collected in such way, will form the basis of the presentation of the real WRC participants as the personages of the game.

It is noteworthy that initially the crews had been offered to visit the mobile studio at 9AM, during the shakedown – just during short pauses in training process. But the sportsmen unanimously refused to brake their trainings. They agreed to be in front of the photographers’ cameras only after the end of shakedown. And that is easy to understand – the participants must be ready to have very serious and not-toy fighting on special stages of Rally Portugal 2016.
