Silver was won by Gleb Lutfullin from St. Petersburg (272.16 points), bronze by Makar Ignatov (256.99 points). At the same time, the athlete, who led after the short program, managed to show progress in endurance and performed several elements of the ultra-si, but could not hold the first place.

Second place was taken by Arina Kudlay from St. Petersburg (205.40 points), the third – by Muscovite Zlat Buri (205.17 points). Separately, it is worth noting the performance of Adelia Petrosyan, who will soon start at the ISU Grand Prix in the United States: in an arbitrary program, she did not cope with the quad-toolup and fell on the step track.

In pairs skating, the first gold medal of the Grand Prix this season was won by Ekaterina Chikmareva and Matvey Yanchenkov.

Earlier, “MK-Ural” wrote that the Governor Denis Pasler in his social networks announced the readiness of the region to host the championship of Russia in figure skating, noting that the Grand Prix of Russia in figure skating “Gold of the Urals” in the capital of the Urals is a weighty argument for making the appropriate decision.
