The LADA Sport ROSNEFT Junior karting team successfully competed in the Russian Championship finals, claiming two victories in the team and individual standings. The competition took place last weekend at the Plastunka karting track in Sochi.

Two drivers emerged as team heroes. Yaroslav Shevyrtalov, competing in the fastest "KZ-2" class, became the Russian Champion in the individual standings thanks to a successful finish ahead of his main competitor. In the "OK" class, Stepan Antonov contributed to the overall victory for LADA Sport ROSNEFT Junior, winning gold in the final.

In the face of intense competition, the success of the LADA Sport ROSNEFT Junior pilots allowed them to secure a team victory and confirm their status as Russia's strongest team for the fourth year in a row.

Karting is the entry level to global motorsports. Rosneft and the LADA Sport ROSNEFT team have jointly supported this sport for many years, offering young people the opportunity to pursue careers as professional drivers in the main team, where graduates of the youth program achieve high results.

A week earlier, LADA Sport ROSNEFT also became the country's best racing team in the Russian Circuit Racing Series (RCRS) for the fourth consecutive time, with Leonid Panfilov winning the Super Production class championship. Panfilov is a graduate of the LADA Sport ROSNEFT youth team and a two-time winner of the Russian Karting Championship.

Reference:

Rosneft has been the general sponsor of LADA Sport ROSNEFT since 2015. During this time, the team has achieved impressive results, winning 49 championship titles, including the Silk Way Rally, as well as victories in all circuit racing classes, classic rallying, and karting.

This collaboration brought a number of innovative products to the market: Pulsar-100 high-octane gasoline and Rosneft Magnum Racing motor oil. Since 2021, the LADA Sport ROSNEFT team has been using this motor oil, which provides enhanced engine protection under extreme racing conditions. Racetrack-tested technologies are now available to drivers—Pulsar fuel and Magnum Racing oil are available at Rosneft gas stations.

Funds totaling 90.6 million rubles will be allocated to 26 regions that applied for subsidies in 2025. These include the Republics of Buryatia and Yakutia; the Trans-Baikal, Kamchatka, Primorsky, and Khabarovsk Krais; the Amur, Belgorod, Bryansk, Vladimir, Voronezh, Ivanovo, Kaluga, Kostroma, Kursk, Lipetsk, Moscow, Oryol, Ryazan, Smolensk, Tambov, Tver, Tula, Yaroslavl, and Jewish Autonomous Oblasts; and the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug. By the end of the year, these regions are expected to recruit approximately 80 specialists.

Under the program, physical education and sports workers relocating to communities with populations of up to 50,000 will receive one-time compensation payments. For communities located in the Far East, the one-time payment will be 2 million rubles. For other regions, the one-time payment will be 1 million rubles.

State support will be available to specialists with higher or secondary vocational education. To qualify, they must sign a full-time employment contract with a physical education and sports organization, committing to work there for at least five years.

Speaking about the decision taken at a meeting with deputy prime ministers on October 20Mikhail Mishustin noted that it is important for qualified specialists to be present in sports organizations in small towns and for children to train under their guidance.

BEIJING, Oct. 20 (Xinhua) — China's industrial sector maintained positive momentum and showed continuous improvement in the quality of growth in the first three quarters of this year.

In January-September 2025, the added value of output at China's leading industrial enterprises grew by 6.2 percent year-on-year, according to data released Monday by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS).

According to data published by the State Statistical Service, in September of this year this indicator increased by 6.5 percent year-on-year, which was 1.3 percentage points higher than in August of this year.

Industrial production added value in China is used to measure the output activity of leading industrial enterprises with annual revenue from core business activities of RMB 20 million (about US$2.82 million) and above.

According to the State Statistical Office, last month, the added value created by manufacturing enterprises increased by 7.3 percent year-on-year, while in the extractive industry it increased by 6.4 percent. Meanwhile, in the electricity, heat, gas, and water production and supply sector, this figure increased by 0.6 percent.

And in the first three quarters, the growth of this indicator in the manufacturing industry was 6.8 percent, in the mining industry – 5.8 percent, in the sector of production and supply of electricity, heat, gas and water – 2 percent.

In January-September, the added value of products by leading high-tech manufacturing enterprises increased by 9.6 percent year-on-year, and their contribution to the growth of added value of products by all leading industrial enterprises in the country amounted to 24.7 percent.

In the first three quarters, the volume of exports from China's leading industrial enterprises grew by 3.3 percent, a growth rate 0.3 percentage points higher than in January-August of this year.

From January to August, profits at China's leading industrial companies increased by 0.9 percent year-on-year, reversing the downward trend in their overall profits observed since May of this year. In particular, manufacturing profits maintained a relatively high growth rate, increasing by 7.4 percent year-on-year.

Wang Xin, Deputy Director of the Industrial Statistics Department of the National Bureau of Statistical Information, noted that China's industrial sector still faces problems such as relatively insufficient effective demand and low enterprise profitability.

According to her, the next stage will see the country fully, precisely, and comprehensively implement the new development concept, accelerate the construction of a new development architecture, accelerate the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, increase the supply of high-quality products, continually create new growth points to expand domestic demand, and strengthen the foundation for the stable development of the industrial economy.

Data released Monday also showed that China's GDP grew 5.2 percent year-on-year in the first three quarters of 2025. -0-
