Career
Kudriashov came to prominence in 2009, after he won the under-19 Russian Championship, scoring a 15 points maximum. [5] The same year, Kudryashov finished third at the individual Under-21 Russian Championship, scoring 12 points. [6]
On 3 September 2009, Kudryashov started in the motoAllegro Szlaka Piastowska, individual meeting in Poznań, Poland, finishing 15th. [7] This was the prelude to his career in the Team Speedway Polish Championship, when he signed for Wanda Kraków for the 2010 Polish speedway season. [2]
It was also in 2010 that Kudriashov started in the 2011 Speedway Grand Prix Qualification and in qualifying round four scored 7 points to qualify for the race-off before being eliminated. He also participated in the 2010 Individual Speedway Junior World Championship in Gdańsk, Poland and qualified for the semi-final, held on 26 June in Landshut, Germany and the 2010 Individual Speedway Junior European Championship finishing 7th in the semi-final in Rawicz, Poland.

Kudriashov won the Russian national championship in 2015. He went on to win the national title on three more occasions in 2017, 2018 and 2019. [9]
Illness and death
In early 2023, Kudriashov was forced to retire after being diagnosed with an aggressive skin cancer and sold his speedway equipment in order to support his family.
