“There was too much rest. Unfortunately, especially in the middle of the season. Something happened that I didn't expect, but it happens. Sport is sport and no one can plan everything in advance,” said Sáblíková to ČTK. In Canada in December, a thirty-five-year-old representative cut her leg with an ice skate. That's why she missed the third part of the SP completely, in the fourth she only competed on the 5000 meters track to qualify for the World Championships. to try out how I'm doing, what to expect and what I can afford,” she said. In Poland, she should ride the 15th race on Saturday, and on Sunday she is registered for the kilometer.
Veronika Antošová and Zuzana Kuršová will appear together with Sáblíková in the fifth part of the SP. Nikola Zdráhalová, who had long-term problems with her back, will no longer participate in the season.
