"In today`s situation, I see no problem to form the Russian team, which has the potential to get into the top five of the best racing teams in the world - Oxu.Az quoting Yermilin`s words, published in "Izvestia". - With our technology, especially in the field of space and military aircraft, with smart and talented people, with the presence of large Russian companies that can provide financing, we can show the world our achievements.
It is insulting, that Azerbaijan, which will host the Grand Prix next year, is already building a strategy to build its national team and Russia - does not. The Government of Azerbaijan believes that in order to adequately represent their country, they need to have their own racing team and its pilot.
I think this is real with those goals and tasks which the country assigns to itself. And Russia must be in step with Azerbaijan. I am ready to pick up and make the Russian team.
We have to think about the race not only as entertainment and a way to attract tourists, we must show the world that Russia is a technically advanced power ".
It should be noted that the European Grand Prix, "Formula 1" will be held in Azerbaijan in autumn next year.
