Šiaulių Bankas continues its friendship with Vaidotas Žala and Saulius Jurgelėnas's crew for the third year in a row

In January, Lithuanians, like the rest of the world, look forward to perhaps the most important motor sport event of the year - the Dakar Rally. Starting soon in Saudi Arabia, the race from the participants will require very careful preparation, training and planning.

For the third year in a row Šiaulių Bankas has been cooperating with Vaidotas Žala and Saulius Jurgelėnas's Agrorodeo crew and financing its Dakar's car. This year, the crew will start with the newly acquired MINI John Cooper Works Rally, which has twice the torque and reaches 190 km / h.

“Last time with Kamane we were 12th. This year we have had upgrades and it’s not a secret that we’d love to drive faster”, - spoke the crew on the goals set.

“The Agrorodeo crew is not only a customer of Šiaulių Bankas - three years of cooperation led to friendship. Vaidotas and Saulius are the cartridge of positivity, energy and ambition, who find a solution in any situation and move forward with confidence. We have a lot in common”, says Mindaugas Vasiliauskas, director of Šiaulių Bankas Leasing Department.

The acquaintance, which started three years from financing, has grown into beautiful collaborative projects, such as the story of mutual relations and trust disclosed  in the audio book of Šiaulių Bankas www.arčiau.lt. We invite you to listen to the crew's story and get to know the “Agrorodeo” crew even closer.

We will also be delivering more news about our Dakar crew friends soon, so stay tuned!

Good luck to „Agrorodeo“ crew!
