Biathlete Daniel Serokhvostov told that he was ashamed of his three failures at the last shooting range during the mass start of the Alfa-Bank Russian Cup, because he had been doing this all his life.
Serokhvostov placed sixth in the race from the general start on Sunday. Won gold Edward Latypov .
— What thoughts did you have in mind when you were leading with the advantage before the fourth shot?
“I was thinking about how cold I was.” I was very cold on the penultimate lap. I was riding downhill and realized I was still hot (laughs). The body was wet from sweat and the wind was only getting stronger. I was driving and thinking, “I wish it was +1, I wish it was March” (laughs).
—Have you thought about leadership?
– No, no, it’s a contact race, and what’s more there was a whole group behind me. When there is no big lead, we don’t think about leadership.
— Would you be satisfied with a sixth place if we told you about it before the race?
– I think so. I had never been in the top six before.
– And now you are hardly happy with him, because you were the leader of a certain segment?
– Yes. Could fight with Edik and the others. Shoot the last line alone and you can walk next to them. It’s a shame and a shame.
– What are you ashamed of?
– Which he missed three times. I have been shooting and training all my life, but it didn’t work out here,” Serokhvostov told .
Later on Sunday the women’s mass start will take place; the race will be broadcast live from 11:10 a.m. (Moscow time) on the channel, as well as on the sites sportbox.ru and matchtv.ru.
