The domino of the pair of Russian dance, in line with what happened during the season, & egrave; absolute state, as testified by & rsquo; gained wide margin over his rivals in the free program. Students of the tandem Kustarova / Alexeeva have easily imposed in both segments of the race by setting the new personal best. Moreover, we should not forget how, carte d & rsquo; identity & agrave; hand, there would be a chance & agrave; to postpone the passage of another year in the senior category, hypothesis that appears to & ograve; unlikely.
Ci & ograve; Accordingly, the & ldquo; Tango Argentino & rdquo; skated today & egrave; was a standing ovation from the audience and awarded by the technical panel and judges with the best technical score and assessment pi & ugrave; high on each component of the program. In particular, Yanovskaya / Mozgov, despite a level fell by the wayside on twizzle, were among the few to get a dual level three sequences of steps in pairs.
In second place with a gap of more than eight points, were placed Americans Lorraine McNamara / Quinn Carpenter, who repel the overwhelming comeback of Ukrainians school Zhulin Alexandra Nazarova / Maxim Nikitin, rising from fifth on the short-dance thanks to the second absolute performance in the free dance. In dance, the Ukrainian was missing from the podium back in 1996, when in Brisbane Natalia Gudina / Vitali Kurkudym won the bronze medal, as well as & eacute; l & rsquo; only medal before today.
The expected Canadian Mackenzie Bent / Garrett MacKeen, seconds after the short-dance, they lost the chance & agrave; to fight for the medals because of a & rsquo; unexpected fall on the diagonal end and plummeted to fifth bypassed by Americans Rachel Parsons / Michael Parsons.
Italians Lucrezia Sforza / Leo Luca Sforza stood eighteenth closing both in seventeenth position. As you & egrave; seen on the ice, a placing in the top fifteen positions would be well within reach, but have proved fatal levels lost on the lift of the free dance, which cost at least three points.
Satisfaction for Barbara Fusar Poli, coach of the Hungarian-Italian couple Carolina Moscheni / Adam Lukacs, able to store a good ninth place and now ready to focus greater attention on the category.
