She simply does not have a bad habit of winning less. 01:16-01:38 The news also did not mention that she, together with Daria Kondakova and Daria Dmitrieva, are at the top of all possible rank lists of the year, standing at the top of AA and finals rank. 01:38-01:56 Neither was noticed is that one very smart and refined Italian who knows and understands a lot about RG and art once called Evgenia’s performance “cosmic”. Moreover, he compared her performance with the masterpieces of Michelangelo. 01:56-02:02 Bruno Grandi is that Italian.
