Latypov – about the highway from the Chechen Republic to Tyumen: “I don’t like it – it is impossible to relax even on a straight line”

Triple Olympic medalist Edward Latypov told that it was not easy for him to cope with the track conditions during the pursuit race of the Alfa-Bank Russian Championship in Tyumen.

Latypov, who started ninth, finished third. Ivan Kolotov became the first, Alexander Loginov took second place.

— Can third place be called a victory, given the starting position?

— It was a good race, there was such a fight until the last meters. I really wanted to make up for yesterday’s loss. If the last line had run to zero, then it would have been possible to take second place with reinforced concrete or even fight for victory, especially on such a track. I don’t like this type of track because my legs spread and I can’t rest even in a straight line. On arrival, I lacked a little purity in my movements.

— Which is worse: running in the cold or in such “mush”?

— Everything has its advantages and disadvantages. It’s hot, hot and cool here, but at some point the torment begins, because we let go on the track,” Latypov told .

Currently on the “” and “Match!” channels. Arena”, as well as on the sites sportbox.ru and matchtv.ru, watch the live broadcast of the women’s pursuit race.
