“We still have to, I think, hear (and read) 150 options for the composition of the national team for the Olympic team tournament, as well as for the Games themselves, but here is my personal opinion: 1. No Kolyada. Just because he didn't deserve it. 2. Finally close the topic of Tuktamysheva. Leave a pack of epithets for Lisa (unique, legendary, incredible - who exactly, empress or stewardess, choose for yourself), and leave her the right to ride for the next four years if they raise her age. But: Lisa has nothing to do on OI-22. Alas…,” the RT journalist wrote in her Telegram channel.
She also believes that Alexandra Boikova and Dmitry Kozlovsky, who won bronze in the pairs competition, are more deserving of the team tournament than Evgenia Tarasova and Vladimir Morozov, who came second. In her opinion, Tarasova and Morozov skate more slowly than a younger couple, and she also called the choice of a free production by Evgenia and Vladimir reckless, since in 2017 Alena Savchenko and Bruno Massot had this program more interesting.
“Sinitsina / Katsalapov, or Stepanova / Bukin?
First.
Simply because titles are on their side.
Plus - they don’t change horses at the crossing.

Unbalanced twizzles of champions (rated by the fourth level) let them remain on the conscience of the judges.
Here it is important, it seems to me, that the skaters themselves and their coaching staff draw conclusions.
And so that they, at least, do not deceive themselves.
There are a lot of points to which you can find fault.
In Tallinn, they did not find fault.
This does not mean that there was nothing to do, ”Vaitsekhovskaya added.
Earlier, Vaitsekhovskaya expressed the opinion that Anna Shcherbakova did the impossible at the European Championships in figure skating.
