“My only mistake is not the wind, but my big mistake.” She worked it roughly with her finger. “Zero” on the clock, which I am very happy with, although I missed lying down, but I prepared standing up.

— How surprising was Kayumova’s victorious return?

— It was probably a bit surprising, but we’ve been waiting for a breakthrough from Lera for a long time. She is a strong athlete, she was able to recover her shot and performed well this season. I’m very happy for her. We are good friends and support each other.

Pasture? I think the race is contact, so it will be interesting. What makes it even more interesting is the unstable weather conditions and wind. Tomorrow, perhaps, there will even be surprises,” Goreeva said on .
