celebrity drivers had to complete as many laps as possible during twenty four hours only stopping to refill or change drivers while such adrenaline and there's so much competition at there it's just like in my profession everybody wants to be the best and this race is no exception. just like it's more or less just relative the famous le mans twenty four event was not only a fun weekend out but also a real insurance test even if it was only with nine one powered engines the race proved to be very tight with the first and second place teams finishing within just twenty five seconds of each other and the eventual winner has managed to complete a whopping two thousand four hundred thirty four laps. it true turned out to be a difficult race by an interesting one at that i was pretty impressed by how many war the opponents were there and that's what you want in any competition even

that's what matters and on friday the blue and white faced another powerhouse from the kitchen else eastern conference middle commuter course co-led by my kid on the ninety nine ninety four stanley cup winning coach with the new york rangers. the pace was fanatic by once again it was the visitors from to lead on a pole play thirteen minutes into the game with justin hodgman dangling for the number of the fans and setting up young polish for the opener the musketeers they'll walk quick to level through when a power play team just to miss from the first intermission one zero. the second period the house on a power play again much simpler to fire since course to one and in the final period yanni else foreign made it three one. coming from behind again. into two chairs. and you could see in both games we were the fresher side going into the third

period and this is what made the difference the hard training paid off well from the coach's perspective was a bit more complicated than demonstrate. and does in the strictest alhaji that i was here where i see a lot of very competitive. pressure moving parts of the net. travelling business because they have very skilful forwards so we needed to play that way sometimes we did well sometimes would include against good it was a hard game for us the second in three days while they just started their season. and later on sunday dinner moscow claimed not a home victory against fifty haymaker they have their good confidence step on their road to the third going cup victory. robert burden on r.t.e.

wearing a sexy tim kirby t. shirt went around robbing liquor stores i am not responsible for the actions of people like this program and it's not like i'd ever advocate robbing liquor stores and i doubt the shocked your management secretly arranged for fans to slaughter the sheep at the stadium when the slaughter of animals is acceptable to you or not well that's one thing but we don't need to regulate the morality of individuals in other countries via soccer especially if that regulation means punishing the football clubs who aren't responsible for the actions of individuals but that's just my opinion. dramas that can't be ignored. stories others refuse to notice. faces change the world right.

met other athletes and things became better i like being here i like the food the culture it's all very interesting. after missing out on the vancouver games due to his then ongoing differences with the korean federation the twenty eight year old is determined to make a name of themselves in the upcoming olympics season. last year i started to skate professionally again and with every competition i've participated since then i've been true for this year has also been good for me with the russian championships and i had to do well in the upcoming world cup however the russian short track team isn't all about victor ron who won two silver medals at this year's world championships in hungary according to french coach sebastian go there are other skaters in the team that are ready to challenge the status quo and if we look at the last series through that victory the biggest them or if we don't but it was not the only one so sure we did that. and do something

there really as well so i don't see that on the boy side it's of course victor but there is few guys as well you. can do good things. and one of those guys is letting me a good idea of who won silver in the five thousand meter relay with on at this year's world championships and he's delighted to have a man of armes experience in the russian squad. the whole collective is a very easy going and it's great to get along with both on the ice and all three with their absolutely no ill feelings and who are all keen to talk and hang out together and that's great. as host nation russia will have a full quota of places on their roster five spots each for the men and women the qualification process will start of november for those hoping to make the team and while russia seems to be making steady progress in short track speed skating they will still have a battle on their hands to claim a podium spot in sochi when they come up against the sport's powerhouses like south

korea china and canada. genco r.t. . moscow region. after picking up just two medals at nativity and ten vancouver olympics the pressure is on russia's figure skaters to improve ahead of their home games in sochi however hopes are high with a new talented generation emerging as our correspondent nick lloyd trolls. hopes were high for a long a little over after an impressive silver medal at last year's world championships elite however twenty thirteen hasn't been the best of seasons for the twenty two year old she could only manage a disappointing thirteenth place at this year's worlds in london ontario got off her from the start of my training was really intense and was hard but i knew what i'd let myself in for i really needed to concentrate on my skating but i'm happy and have things are going and will be ready for the olympics leona has changed her program ahead of the games and she'll be no skating to the music of comment during

her rooting the st petersburg native is currently ranked not in the world and there is plenty of competition within the russian camp with i believe a certain a cover and they deserve you to book them wish you were also in the top ten leon of are really into is the friendly rivalry between the competitors and believes it helps her to improve she has a room for months to prepare for the world championships in taiwan and has been getting ready in the usa which hasn't always been easy for us carol that's about it was difficult to get used to living there first but things got easier with time there was a cow madness fear and there were plenty of training sessions so it certainly didn't die of boredom. just like leon over the our stance of the illini and nicky thickets a lump of easter coach one nickel or models of the pair are trying to perfect a new program and will be darting to swan lake which was written by the legendary

russian composer peter what of czerkawski and villany who is just nineteen certainly believes their routine has a lot of potential which of course we really want to do justice to this amazing piece of music and i think this music will help to motivate us and make us better due to the inspiration will get from performing tonight who haven't looked to copy all the elements from the ballet on to the ice we have a number of difficult moves that we're trying to master in our four minute program but i think it will be really strong and moving. the jewish finished ninth at this year's world championships but it's still in the shadow of fellow russians above bravo and dimitri sell a view of who won bronze at the same event with their lympics so close the pair aren't looking to make any major changes to their routine they both understand they will be under a lot of pressure when the games get underway but the young really should be living

a child i always dreamed of winning glory through sport you know becoming a world champion and it's taken a long time and quite a few losses but i never lowered my game and it's got me to where i am now but he does is also emerging from the shadow of russia's most successful a tie fighter live in the to come from the same city in southern siberia and have known each other since they were kids and although twenty six year old levin beat but he dove in a world cup fight back in two thousand and ten that you continue to spar together. i've known our john for a long time and we still train at the same five club you could say i grew up watching him when i began to fight seriously he was already a world champion so when i began sparring with him it was really tough for me but i think it was all for the best because of what i've achieved since. but he thought of status as a recognized more tie fighter was underlined when he became one of a select few to help train a bunch of hopefuls in a russian reality t.v. show something the potential stars of the sport were quick to praise. these

aren't just guys who've come of the streets to try and they've gone through fire and brimstone to get where they are now they've long done what we're now doing and have tested it and gained invaluable experience and what they're teaching on is only what's necessary for real fight in real life so not to listen to them would be a sin the russian bear is certainly want to respect especially when you hear his determination to be the best in every kind of tournament. was that because i don't like to look too far into the future but i do want to continue fighting in the golden glory fight serious i thought i performed well in my debut fight in new york and right now they're considering my candidacy in the seriously of course i'm also focusing on the upcoming russian amateur championships as well as the world combat games in october. with such a calm and focused approach the young bear may well eclipse his lion mentor and
