This is the Olympic Games and this is Italy. I took all my strength in my body and I did it.
I saw after six laps I was seventh. At this time nobody would have thought I could get the bronze medal. But these are the Olympic Games and we are in Italy so I did my best over the final laps.
It is a very grand emotion. It is nice to give this to the sport.
It helps a lot to skate at home.
We went faster than the others.
At 50 (kilometers) per hour, without a motor.
I heard about it but I don't know much about it. It was not on my mind. A racer shouldn't think about those things before a race.
They are two great champions. I have beaten two of the best skaters in the world. I think every athlete who wins a gold medal is surprised but I knew I was skating fast so I'm not surprised about that.
I know that rivalry exists but I don't think it was an advantage for me. You shouldn't think of these things before a race.
