Belarusian national team biathlete Dmitry Lazovsky told that he does not consider himself the main athlete of his team in the absence Anton Smolski .
Lazovsky won first place in the individual race of the fourth stage of the Alfa-Bank Russian Cup in Izhevsk on Thursday. Beijing Olympic medalist Smolsky misses competition due to viral infection.
— During the fourth shoot, you worked for a long time on the last shot. Did you understand that the fate of the race depended on him?
– Yes, I’m tired of revealing my victories myself. I had some good races, but at the corner I created problems.
— Anton Smolsky is not currently playing due to health issues. Can you consider yourself the main Belarusian biathlete at the moment?
“I don’t want to divide one way or another based on whether I’m in charge or not.” At the moment it turns out I’m the best on the team, but it’s a sport, and it can be different every race.
— How do you like the format of the individual race? Would you like more contact races?
— There is sufficient contact during the “individual” session. Today we covered the distance with Sasha Povarnitsyn so much that we were constantly close. It’s clear that the race is long, you have to run twenty, but it’s still interesting. At the turn, anything can happen, so you have to constantly maintain concentration,” Lazovsky told .
