Double Olympic champion in biathlon Dmitry Vasiliev thought Alexandra Bolshunova guilty at the time of a collision with Sergei Ustyugov during the sprint semifinals at the Russian Cross-Country Cup stadium in Krasnogorsk.
Bolshunov and Ustyugov collided on the downhill in the free sprint semifinals. According to the three-time Olympic champion, as a result of the fall, he temporarily lost consciousness. The incident did not allow the two skiers to break through in the final race.
Bolshunov is 100% responsible. He traveled a large radius and got too close to Ustyugov. At some point, Alexander lost his balance and fell on Sergei, Vasilyev told .
On Sunday, as part of the same stage of the Russian Cup, a conflict arose between skiers during the last race of the classic sprint. After the finish, Ustyugov said Bolshunov acted “not humanely” by stepping on his ski. Alexander received a written warning, but his result was confirmed.
