If the Olympic cross-country ski champion Denis Spitsov there was no problem with his wisdom teeth, he would have won the uphill race at the Russian Cup final in Kirovsk, the president of the Russian Ski Federation said Elena Vyalbe .
On Sunday, Savely Korostelev won the 10-kilometer freestyle mass start at the PhosAgro Russian Cup final in Kirovsk. Alexey Chervotkin finished second, 9.2 seconds behind. Three-time Olympic champion Bolshunov (+14.8) closed the top three. On Tuesday, Spitsov had his wisdom tooth removed, after which he withdrew from the competition in Kirovsk.
— Would Spitsov be the first if he participated?
“If he hadn’t had problems with his defense, he would have won the mountain here.” This is his story. Let’s hope he succeeds next season. I think Spitsov regrets not being able to participate. He is truly still the best on our mountain.
— What do you think of the uphill race in Kirovsk in general?
– I’m just euphoric! I think it’s very cool. A huge thank you to the fans, we didn’t expect such a number. They were standing all over the mountain, it’s very cool.
— Last race of the season. Can I move on to summer training now?
— Let’s take a vacation first, take a 20-day break. From May 10 to 12, new training camps will begin, preparation for next season. The question of where the fees will be is still under discussion. We know for sure that the very first installation meeting for everyone will take place in Malinovka around mid-June, ”a correspondent reports to Vyalba.
