Renowned ski and biathlon coach Nikolai Lopukhov commenting for on the results of the sprint qualification at the Russian Cup stage in Krasnogorsk, said that the competition between Alexander Bolshunov and Sergei Ustyugov interested in cross-country skiing.
– Nepryaeva greatly outperformed the others in qualifying. What is the reason?
– Apparently, competently.
– Stepanova is also a master, but lags behind.
“A prologue is a prologue, some may have solved microtactical problems.
– Among men, the first three places are for Bolshunov, Terentyev, Ustyugov. All strong, okay?
– I would add Korostelev. He doesn’t make the top three, likely due to the fact that he recently returned from China, where he competed in the youth games.
– The spark that exists between Bolshunov and Ustyugov contributes to the popularization of skiing, in your opinion?
– If they do well off the ski slope, that’s normal, it gives interest.
— Do your athletes run in Krasnogorsk?
– No, I’m done. Now no one, pensioner, coach watches TV. I came to watch the races for my own enjoyment,” Lopukhov told .
The Russian Cup competitions in Krasnogorsk take place on December 25, 27 and 28. The program for the stage includes classic and freestyle sprints, as well as races with a classic start at 10 km for women and 15 km for men.
