Biathlete Kirill Bajine said that the mistakes of his opponents allowed him to win the pursuit race at the second stage of the Alfa-Bank Russian Cup in Khanty-Mansiysk.
Bazhin covered the distance of 12.5 km in 33 minutes 59.6 seconds, making a mistake at the shooting range. Alexander Loginov took second place (1 miss, +24.5), Eduard Latypov took third place (4 misses, +1.01.4).
– Yes, it turns out that you can win with failure. As long as your opponents allow you to make mistakes on the turn, you can afford to make a small mistake,” Bazhin said on .
Edward Latypov admitted that he was unhappy with his work on the lines, especially at the start of the race.
“With four misses, I got on the podium, but not very well, of course.” I wanted to keep the lead, but there were shooting errors. The first part of the shoot was completely bad. But he was eventually rehabilitated,” Latypov noted.
Later on Friday, the women’s pursuit race will take place in Khanty-Mansiysk. Live broadcast on the channel will begin at 13:00 (Moscow time).
