Triple Olympic bronze medalist Edward Latypov who finished third in the pursuit race of the Alfa-Bank Russian Championship, said on that he did not have enough strength to cross the finish line.
The victory was won by Ivan Kolotov, who made no mistakes. Alexander Loginov took second place (backlog – 8.1 seconds; 2 misses). Latypov lost 8.3 seconds to the leader with four penalties.
— Did you see Alexander Loginov in the last meters?
“I knew he was behind, but I had already given all my strength to catch up with the guys.” I didn’t have enough cleanliness on the last climb, Sasha added at the end. It was a good, beautiful fight. I understood that his shadow was approaching, from the sound that he was close. I was already going as far as I could. I just didn’t have the strength.
I could hit everywhere, I made my mistakes, I was in a hurry somewhere. Annoying mistakes, but the fight turned out to be excellent,” Latypov said on .
The women’s pursuit will take place later Tuesday. Watch the live broadcast from 11:35 (Moscow time) on and Match! Arena”, as well as the sites sportbox.ru and matchtv.ru.
