GOODWOOD, UK: Eduard Nikolaev, a five-time winner of Dakar, was shot in the new short film of Red Bull on his bonnet truck.
He fought for the last parking place at the prestigious Summer Ball at Goodwood Festival of Speed with the drift champion of Formula 2018 Mike Whiddett. Mike made his debut on a specially created for drifting Lamborghini NIMBUL.
In the new film, we see an exciting competition of Mike and Eduard, who go to extreme in order to take the last place in the parking lot. At some point, we witness how Eduard's 9500-kilo KAMAZ takes off into the air, and Mike’s NIMBUL passes just a few centimeters under him. Trying to gain an advantage over the enemy, Eduard breaks through a fence, while Mike on his super-low car drives smoothly through the grid before the Goodwood car park security begin to chase them. The new modification allows achieving maximum driving accuracy, which is excellently combined with the unbridled and unrivaled power of the both vehicles. The film also features famous people from the auto and motor sports world, such as YouTube star Archie Hamilton, test driver Grand Tour Abbie Eaton, anchor Sideways Sid, participant of the Flat Track Leah Tokelove and founder of the VC London sports platform Gemma Harrison.
Eduard Nikolaev: “This is already our second joint project with Mike. He is a living legend and knows his stuff. I can't wait to hear what people think about this race. I came to England the first time and very happy to be here. I look forward to the opportunity of taking part in competitions in Goodwood, especially since such a huge number of world-famous teams have gathered here. The new bonnet model of KAMAZ-MASTER is a great way to declare at the festival. ”
Mike Whiddett: “My dream came true when I could bring #NIMBUL model to life. As long as I can remember, I always wanted to create a supercar for drift. It took me four weeks to turn a Huracan into #NIMBUL, and I look forward “to set it free” in front of a huge crowd at the Festival of Speed.
“It is always great to work on filming of Red Bull films. I hope the new model will make everyone smile and at the same time, the public will appreciate the mastery of the Lamborghini, fighting with KAMAZ for the last place in Goodwood parking lot. This race will be completely different from my previous projects. It is different from all that I have ever participated in, and these vehicles just blow the roof off. ”
