It's rather remarkable that 3 teams from the 2006 Jr Worlds championship top four were all in the top four at the GPF this year.
But I have always wondered why Mikhailova/Sergeev and Platonova/Maximishin never really had much success beyond juniors and broke up or disappeared within a year or two after entering the senior ranks. I hope someone knows, and will tell us.
