1988 Olympic champion Mikhail Devyatyarov Sr. told that during the show’s run in Luzhniki, it was difficult for him to impose competition on rivals who take part in the stages of the Russian Cup.
Devyatyarov, 63, took part in the “ Race of Stars” in Luzhniki on Saturday, where, together with his partner, he retired in the semifinals. Sergey Ardashev’s team won the final race.
“My partner is very well prepared, but I’m already…well, age, what else can I say. Technically, I’m still fine, but as soon as you start picking up speed, you lose coordination. I haven’t prepared much, I ride all the time in my club. Sometimes I ride 20 to 30 kilometers, but at my own pace. There is still a sprint, so it was difficult. In addition, there were rivals on the course who still run in the Cups of Russia. But the main thing is that today was a holiday. It turns out that today was the first Russian ski race of this season, which was shown on . Next will be Malinovka. Now ski fans will be able to enjoy our sport on a public channel,” Devyatyarov Sr. told .
On Sunday at 1:00 p.m. Moscow time, the Luzhniki Stadium will host the Race of the Stars biathlon. Watch the live broadcast on the federal channel and thematic channels of the holding, as well as on the sites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
