Seven stages of intense competition: time trials, overcoming water obstacles, circuit races with changing lanes, and final high-speed maneuvers. These are not just ordinary farmers; they are true rural racers. The field was yesterday and will be tomorrow. Today, their element is risky turns, deep ditches, and dangerous descents and ascents. The competition is filled with intense battles fueled by excitement and adrenaline.

The Bizon-Track-Show tractor races have been held in the Rostov region since May 26, 2002. The purpose of the competition is to promote the profession of a machine operator, restore respect for rural work, and attract young people to the country’s agricultural sector.

Tractor drivers compete in pairs, threes, and fives. The main focus is on speed and head-to-head competition. Dozens of agricultural enterprises participate in tractor races. Thousands of fans and millions of viewers watch the maneuvers of the mechanizers.

Over the past year, 17 tractor tournaments have been held. More than 300 rural athletes have taken to the starting line. The winners have received 39 tractors and dozens of other agricultural machinery. According to the pilots, the competitions not only allow them to improve their driving skills, but also provide additional incentives for good work.
