Winner of the Short Track World Cup Elena Sergina said that for records you need a special energy in races, which is present during world-class starts.
Seregina won the 1,500m at the second stage of the Russian Cup, which takes place in St. Petersburg.
— I cannot call it such a “victory”, because all strong rivals fell or received a penalty. I just arrived and took advantage of the development of the situation. But for me personally it is a good result.
— Because “one and a half” is not your distance? Is your sprint?
– Yes.
— During the first stage of the Cup, how did it go?
“There was no victory there because of my own tactical errors, and on top of that there was a penalty in the 500m final.”
— You have a Spartakiad this year, it’s still a bigger start, plus cash prizes. Motivate?
-Motivation, of course. And the prize money motivates too.
— What about tasks that make you work harder? Files, for example?
— It’s difficult with records, simply because when you play at world level, it’s a different energy, a different ice.
— Were you expecting good news from the ISU (International Skating Union)?
“I hope we will be allowed in, but I don’t think that could happen in the near future,” Seregina told .
