World champion Ekaterina Yurlova-Perkht told that their performance was associated with Maxim Tsvetkov in the mixed doubles singles of the PARI Russian Championship can add motivation to young biathletes.
Yurlova-Perkht, 38, and Tsvetkov, 31, representing the Saint Petersburg national team, became runners-up on Thursday, losing Victoria Slivko And Yevgeny Garanichev of the Tyumen region (lag of 10.0 seconds).
– Previously they said you bet on team races here, did the bet work?
– Practically (laughs). Satisfied with me, but not everyone – the last rack did not work.
– Can we say that the single mixed is a race for more experienced athletes?
– Here, not only the purity of the shot, but also its speed play a big role. Unfortunately the circle is very short, no matter how fast and how good you run, unfortunately nothing can be done on the course. So far this component is working fine for me.
“Do the youth of St. Petersburg follow you?”
– I hope (laughs). I don’t know, but I really hope our performance adds motivation to someone,” Yurlova-Perkht told .
Later on Thursday, March 30, the Classic Mixed Relay will be held as part of the Russian Championship, the broadcast of the race on the channel will start at 11:40 (MSK). The event will also be broadcast on the matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru websites.
