— You gave the closest pursuer 15 seconds at the finish line. Did your ski experience have any effect on the final lap?

“I’m in good shape now.” There are still reservations to add. You can’t take away your skiing past. I was a good skier, that’s probably why I posted such fast seconds.

I hope there will be more podiums this season than last season. And I will try to show the best result in every race,” Shevchenko said on .

Pursuit races will take place on Saturday during the second stage of the Russian Cup. The broadcast of the men’s pursuit race will begin at 09:35 Moscow time, and that of the women’s pursuit at 12:50 Moscow time. Watch live broadcasts on the channel, matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru sites.
