Coach Russian team In short track skating, Andrei Maksimov believes any debut at the international level is important now, even in a match-meet format.
Russian short track ended 2022 with the Russian all-around championship, won by Olympic champion Semyon Elistratov.
– The Russian Championship took place at a good level. It was far from the first time Kolomna had seen him go, the ice cream was good. The fight was also interesting, Maksimov told .
– Can you score runs separately?
– I liked the superfinal the most, 3000 m; there was a tactical fight, the athletes showed a good result, they ran according to the Russian record. And there was also a good race in the mixed relay – the team from St. Petersburg fought with the team from Yaroslavl, there were good tactical overtakings by the leading team.
– What’s next for the competition?
– We will have the final of the Russian Cup and the Russian championship at separate distances in Ufa, at the ice rink named after Semyon Elistratov. We invite all fans to Ufa, to one of the best ice rinks in Russia.
– What do you think of all the discussions about the possibility of participating in competitions in Asia?
– In terms of competition, it’s very good. Any departure and match international meeting between teams and clubs – I totally agree.
During the debate at the recent Olympic summit, a spokesman for the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) said that there was no longer any reason for the Asian continent to take defensive measures against the Russians. The OCA has offered to facilitate the participation of athletes from Russia and Belarus in competitions in Asia under its control, while respecting the sanctions in force.
