— Today, Kirill is on a roll, his superpower has opened up. My penalty loop? I made a mistake shooting standing up. I slowed down my approach, which didn’t allow me to work properly. There was hope for the guys, everything changed quickly. Everyone took a risk, it’s the relay race and it’s cool that everything is changing quickly,” Kazakevich said on .
“I am grateful to my partners who have done a lot.” First of all, we successfully went with Eremin from Novosibirsk. We got to the “lying down” stage and started making mistakes, it was unacceptable. On the final climb, I understood that you had to go first, there was little chance that they would overtake you. I invested in the descent, then I worked tactically,” noted Bajine.
