Former President of the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) Vladimir Drachev told that he considered it a good idea to organize the Pari Commonwealth Cup, in which biathletes from Russia and Belarus competed.
Previously, mass starts had taken place in Raubichi as part of the fifth stage of the tournament. On the women’s side, the top three were Victoria Slivko, Anastasia Goreeva and Anastasia Batmanova. Among men, Eduard Latypov, Daniil Serokhvostov and Anton Smolsky became the best.
– Latypov won three medals at the fifth stage of the Commonwealth Cup? Edward is awesome! But now it is impossible to understand if he is in his best shape – they just run between them. Our biathletes cannot compete with world leaders now. And no one will be able to say what results we would have now in international competitions – this can only be understood in a one-on-one fight.
As for the Commonwealth Cup, I think that’s a story for a few more winters, and then how it goes. The decision is correct, at least a little allows you to go to competitions: one – in Russia, the other – in Belarus. And how long this will last is another question,” Drachev told .
On February 4-5, the Luzhniki Stadium will host the Star Racing TV Match with the participation of skiers and biathletes. On February 4, at 1:00 p.m. Moscow time, the ski race will begin, on February 5, at 1:00 p.m., biathletes will start their performance. Watch live broadcasts on the federal channel and thematic channels of the holding, as well as on the sites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
