Olympic medalist in track cycling Gulnaz Khatuntseva said she was delighted to win at the renovated velodrome in Tula, moreover, not in “her” form.
Khatuntseva won the scratch on day one of the Tula Grand Prix.
“I always log in to win, but as you know, scratching is not my style, I’m very happy that I managed to win it,” Khatuntseva told . — Of course, we are happy to be back on the track, that there is now an opportunity to train here. And I’m glad a lot of athletes came, especially given the busy schedule we have for the upcoming starts.
– Will you go to the Russian road championship?
– I will go, but my soul lies more in the track, so I can’t predict.
Did you miss running?
– Yes! We went to the races in Minsk, but in Tula it’s still completely different emotions! This track is the only concrete track in Russia where we run high level races. It’s great that the Grand Prix series opens here.
