Two-time Olympic champion Dmitry Vasiliev said that he was ironic about the records of Norwegian skiers in the absence of the Russians.
“In order not to spend money on organizing the event, I propose to give all the medals to the Norwegians. Norwegians are always the sickest people on the planet, but they are also the most successful in terms of medals. Now Clabo has set the record. Of course, if all countries and favorites are excluded, all records will be Norwegians. Only irony can be made about these recordings, this is not a feat, but nonsense in vegetable oil, ”Vasiliev quotes. “Match TV”.
