It is interesting (and significant) that you only speak of athletes and not of coaches or association representatives, for example. Let's take a look at who actually cast a bad light on Russian figure skating. These were primarily FFKKR and Tutberidze. Not that it would have been enough to bring an athlete who was ..... to the start. No, the athlete was NOT withdrawn from the competition after the positive ...... test became known and was thus thrown at the press in full awareness of the circumstances. That's what I call responsibility and acting ethically towards an athlete (who is also a minor). It is clear that the behavior of the press is unworthy, but this is not at issue here. The fact that at the same time a huge support campaign was launched across Russia on practically all state channels and the West was accused of having staged everything while presenting itself as a victim, shows complete ignorance and denial of reality. THAT and Tutberitze's reaction to Kamila's crappy freeskate damaged the image of Russian figure skating in the world more than anything else. Sasha's completely understandable reaction to the absurd scoring and Anja's complete lack of emotion at the moment of victory due to her own insight into the completely absurd situation were just the icing on the cake.
Of course, it's always amusing to witness the social envy of Dacia drivers live. But I can calm you down. The GLS belongs to Sasha's mother. Personally, I find it very pragmatic to give a novice driver a used car with a higher seating position to give a better overview. Later, when Sasha drives a little more safely, she might be entrusted with an Omoda C5.
