The annual Gymkhana drive fest – 2025 gathered over 30 racers from Belarus and Russia
The dynamic "Gymkhana Drive Fest – 2025" is bringing together Vitebsk residents for the third consecutive year at the site near the Summer Amphitheater. This year, it is held over two consecutive days. For the first time, spotlights have been installed here for an unforgettable light show and to accompany the race in the evening.
There is a clear passion invested in this auto festival. Its organizer, six-time Belarusian champion in sports maneuvering and professional race car driver Alexey Shendyukov, made an effort this year to attract more drivers from Russia. The result was immediate – the spectator stands were packed from beginning to end. The audience was treated to exciting competitions, super-races with auto-sports star Alexey Shendyukov, prize drawings, and an exhibition of rare cars.
The youngest participant in the races is 15-year-old Denis Kukushkin. The young man has been participating in gymkhana competitions for the fourth time. Racing, drifting, and a passion for cars are literally in his blood.
