Charlene Guignard and Marco Fabbri lead after the rhythm dance at the European Championships with a score of 84.23 points. Here’s a translation of their comments reported by Sports journalist Maya Bagriantseva.
“Marco Fabbri: I won’t mince words, when I saw the scores, I breathed a sigh of relief. We didn’t know what to expect from this European Championships, but right now we have a small gold medal for the first dance, so I feel somewhat relieved.
Charlene Guignard: We are very pleased. We enjoyed the skate from the first steps — it isn’t always possible to capture that feeling when everything feels easy.
Marco Fabbri: By the way, I didn’t catch that feeling right away. I came onto the ice very tense, my legs felt wooden — maybe that’s why the twizzles weren’t perfect. But then I was able to relax, and everything followed its course.
To be honest, we didn’t immediately take to the theme of this season’s rhythm dance. It wasn’t easy for us to feel natural in the imagery of that era. But now, I think, we are doing quite well.
We try not to think about the final medals; we don’t want to conform to the pressure and expectations of others. But I’d be fibbing if I said we weren’t aiming to win. We came here to defend our title.”
