— Today is my first victory at the Spartakiad, I am very happy. Today, the skiing performances were excellent and the weather conditions excellent. The only thing is I feel so strange, but everything worked out, I’m glad I could win again. The final today brought together sprint monsters and cross-country ski monsters in Russia. Everything is very good.
As for the quarter-finals, we will have to keep a cool head. I set myself the task of winning the final, so the quarterfinals did not involve such an intense fight. The guys set a fast pace at the start, so we had to be a little tactful. The rivals were busy, in some places they were close to each other, it was dangerous. In the semi-final and the final I understood that this could not happen,” Bolshunov said on .
