Dronova remained out of the medal fight in this type of program; the Russian finished 21st.
— We ran the race course without rain during training, and in the rain the transition from one asphalt to another, granular and rocky —[он] was like ice. It was difficult not only for Tamara, but also for many people. We didn’t even expect this to happen. It was really slippery – the mechanic was running and slipped. Tamara fell at the 15th kilometer, her leg began to swell, her bike was damaged, and the “horns” themselves were slightly bent.
— Are you worried about missing the group race?
— In general, there are no such concerns now. I hope that we will skate tomorrow and continue training, “Dronov told .
The Olympic Games take place in Paris from July 26 to August 11. All Russian athletes compete in neutral status.
