Serokhvostov: “I understood that Porshnev was not a competitor at the finish of the relay because he had difficulty performing due to his illness.”

Biathlete Daniel Serokhvostov in the final round of the mixed relay at the Russian Championships, I knew that I would beat Nikita Porshnev because he is not in the best physical shape.

Serokhvostov, a member of the Novosibirsk region team, finished second. The KhMAO-Yugra-2 team, in which Porshnev raced, came fourth.

— In the last lap I was waiting for the last climb, it was important for me that Peter (Paschenko) was the first to leave the descent, because I understood that I would pump him up, so the skis worked well. And that’s what happened.

— Have you understood that Porshnev is not a competitor?

— Yes, Nikita had difficulty performing this season and this championship because of illness. I understood that we would catch him, then we would fight with Peter. When we covered a semicircle, I panicked a little, because I thought it would be much easier to cover this distance,” Serokhvostov told .
