— New Year, first victory. Everyone counts the numbers, but for me, every race is a clean slate. Tomorrow there is a new leaf, and we have to start again. I don’t count the races, everyone makes a big deal out of them. Won – good.
Everything was according to the forecast, it had been snowing for an hour, and in the morning I spoke with (my wife) Anya, it started snowing in Moscow, a cyclone. I thought it would happen here too, and it did. At the start of the warm-up it was very cold and there was a strong wind. I went out, I was cold, I came back, dressed warmer. The main thing was not to freeze.
It is clear that separation from family is difficult. It’s even more difficult now that there is a wife and child at home. “I want to be at home, but I have to work and show results,” Bolshunov said on .
