She inspires hope in our biathlon. I wish her success in the next starts, «said Drachev. «Today Reztsova had a chance for a medal, but one line pushed her back. everyone made mistakes before her. you can. Take the top ten. Take away a minute for a miss for everyone and he already has a chance for silver or bronze,” said the ex-head of the RRF.
