– Dasha, you didn’t go to Tula. For what? By the way, you avoided the cold.
– I assumed there would be bad weather in Tula and decided to save money for the remaining two Grand Prix. For me, that would be a lot.
– Are you already used to the three-way sprint?
– My position does not change, so it is sometimes more difficult for the girls, the faster the food, the more difficult it becomes for them. They are already deciding who will be second and third after me.
– Nastya Voinova went on maternity leave. End of an era?
– I’m very happy for her. Now he will take a break and come back,” Shmeleva told .
