– However, the sun, when you take off your glasses, dazzles a little. Glare appears and this can greatly affect the shot.
Women will still pass, so it won’t be drastically warmer. The turning point will be closer to one o’clock in the afternoon, when the men’s race takes place. The choice of lubricant for specific sections of the track will be important.
– Why does it happen in biathlon that an athlete shows a different state of fitness during the day?
“Actually, it depends on many factors. First, what the athlete did in training before the competition. Second, how he ran those races. There may have been races that weren’t complete… I think there are a lot of athletes today who understood yesterday that they had nothing to count on. They will look much better.
– Isn’t it a shame for Russian biathlon when Dinara Alimbekova-Smolskaya, who spends a passing season, beats brilliant representatives of the Russian team in many races?
— This characterizes the level of our women’s biathlon. Despite the fact that the average is a good level for us. But unfortunately, we have not learned to cook the stars. There is yet another point here: a class athlete can perform even in poor condition,” Kaminsky said on .
On March 12, at the PARI stage of the Commonwealth Cup in Tyumen, the men’s mass start will also take place, the start of which is scheduled for 11:55 (Moscow time).
