European track cycling champion Lev Gonov said he was not going to compare his earnings with other sports and focused on developing in his chosen field.
Gonov is one of the leaders of the Russian national track cycling team.
– Who supports, apart from good seconds, Alexander Anatolyevich Kuznetsov? The world tracker, as it happens, is not the wealthiest athlete. Bradley Wiggins said that until he moved on to the World Tour, even as an Olympic track champion, his financial situation was stable. We have a different attitude towards the winners of the Olympic Games. And even now, when there are alternative competitions, when there was a Spartakiad of the strongest, the prize money was very strong. I have a child, I’m not going to complain – we can handle it.
– There are those who complain – in football …
Comparing yourself to other sports is just stupid. So you can generally talk about everything in the world – but it’s better. Where does this lead? Yes, nothing. I just have to work to progress in the sport I have chosen. And my family is my main support in this regard.
