President of the Russian Ski Racing Federation (RFSR) Elena Vyalbe told that she did not see anything sensational in Ermil Vokuev’s victory in the classic time trial of the Alfa-Bank Russian Championship.
Savely Korostelev took second place, Alexey Chervotkin closed the leading trio. The gap between Alexander Bolshunov and the winner was 45.4 seconds, he took ninth place. Before that, the athlete won 23 consecutive starts.
– What a feeling ? There was no feeling. He practically skated. Yes, it’s a double pull. I think he is very strong in this area. No one doubts it, he is one hundred percent the best in our country in this area.
— So you’re not at all surprised by his victory?
– I’m not surprised. If he had raced (purely) classics, the situation would have been different,” Vyalbe told .
