And the subgroup “A”, which includes experienced athletes from among the participants of the Russian Grand Prix of the Russian series and RDS Europe, and in the subgroup “B”, where the pilots without a loud tracking list were declared, this time were new names. RDS GP leaders Damir Idiyatulin and Evgeny Losev, together with Sergey Kuznetsov, Stepan Azarov and Anton Dmitrienko, became the tournament debutants, the second year in a row, Roman Tivodar took part, the RDS Europe pilots Artyom Lyatis, Dmitry Shcherbina and the head of the RDS Dmitry Dobravolsky, and the judge of the Russian The drift of the series Anton Novikov this time replaced the judicial tower to the cockpit drift.
Pavel Tkachuk As a result, not everyone was able to successfully undergo a sieve of qualification selection and get into eight pilots to participate in paired races. The best in subgroup “A” was Damir Idatiulin (his car in the photo) – almost impeccable travel by 99.5 points allowed Siberian to win the first qualifications in a new tournament for him. The second was the winner of the 2024 Winter Cup, Kirill Sholdan with a result of 98 points, Sergey Kuznetsov was qualified the third – 97.5 points.
Pavel Tkachuk In the subgroup “B” there were no equal to Nikolai Groshev, who earned 99 points – exactly half of the point separated the pilot from the victory in the overall test of qualifications! Following him – Vladimir Mazaev with a result of 96 points, and closed the top three of the best in qualifications Denis tests with a passage of 95.5 points.
Pavel Tkachuk At the TOP-16 stage, from two subcategories, for the first time, they got the opportunity in a full-time battle on the highway to die with each other. The battles were hot in every sense, since the races on the winter highway behind the wheel of classic domestic cars are not the same for pilots RDS GP and RDS Europe that driving on more powerful machines on dry asphalt.
Pavel Tkachuk However, professionals were able to better adapt to difficult conditions and a new technique for themselves-at the cost of acute struggle and several OMT-worships in some pairs: no one doubted that the pilot RDS GP Roman Tivodar (his stylish “six” on the right) would be a serious rival for Damir Idamiyatiulin (In the photo he is on the left). In the final were the teams on the command of Fresh Racing Idiyatulin and Losev. The chances of winning both were equal, because with winter drift both pilots are familiar with firsthand – in this Siberian battle, Idiyatulin became the strongest.
Pavel Tkachuk Damir recorded the qualifications won, first place in paired races and rightfully won the status of the absolute winner of the Winter Cup of the RDS for the drift of the season-2025. Losev’s second place allowed him to provide a victorious double to his team, albeit unofficial in the absence of a team standings. Nevertheless, the debut of Eugene in the tournament turned out to be very bright and very effective.
Pavel Tkachuk For third place, two more pilots of the subgroup “A” fought – Pyotr Borodin took the top in a duel with Dmitry Shcherbina. Thanks to this, the podium was updated 100%-none of the last year’s participants TOP-3 this time was among the winners. Kirill Sholdan had a chance for this historical success, but for the winner of the 2024 tournament, this time only fifth place was the maximum result.

Winter Cup of RDS for drifts – the competition is quite unusual. Only the second year it opens the season of the Russian drift of the series and interrupts the winter lull. This year, the tournament moved from Luzhnikov to the Center for Technical Sports “Moscow”, to a full -fledged racing highway. It is interesting that only in the Winter Cup of the RDS, ambitious beginners can challenge the famous drift pilles, because everyone acts on prepared classic “Lada”. This time everything was so unpredictable that none of the winners of the Winter Cup of the RDS last season was on the catwalk!
