The main idea of our event is to set speed records on a different types of vehicles on the ice surface of the deepest lake on Earth.
On March 2019 on the eastern shore of the Baikal lake the first festival of speed “Baikal Mile” took its’ place. And because of warm response given by spectators and media both, it has been made an annual event. This festival became a complete breakthrough in a history of international motorsport and racing culture because of extreme and severe nature conditions of Siberia. It is an ordeal and a challenge not only for pilots but also for technical equipment presented at the event.
