'I know skaters that wouldn’t have given a c**p' - Laurent Dubreuil praises Kai Verbij for sporting act at Beijing 2022
Laurent Dubreuil has heaped praise on Kai Verbij for his tremendous sporting act during the final of the men's 1000m. The event is against the clock, but you are also competing on the track against another racer and the nature of the sport means the speed skaters have to change lanes on the back straight of every lap. Ad/> Verbij was making ground on Dubreuil, who went out extremely hard, but knew that priority goes to the racer crossing from out to in.
