The short program of the Lithuanian representatives who avoided the most significant mistakes – the foxtrot and quixstep dance according to the Broadway musical “Bandtsant” – was evaluated with 71.29 points.

Until two years ago, the duo lacked a fixed personal record of 2.12 points.

Among the 31 couples that appeared on the ice, A. Reed and S. Ambrulevičius were ranked 15. 20 duets will continue their performance on Saturday’s free show.

19 of them will win tickets to the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.

So far, the 26-year-old American and the two-year-old Lithuanian managed to climb to the top of the planet’s championships in 2019, when they finished 17th.

In the free program, the couple will dance to the rhythm of the Aurora cemetery, Everything Happened in Silence and Soft Universe.

The best program of the Russian Figure Skating Federation (FSR) Victoria Sinicina and Nikita Katsalapov was rated the best on Friday: 88.15 points.

The reigning European champions and the planetary vice-champions lined up behind the Americans. Madison Hubbell and Zachary Donohue (86.05) were second and Madison Chock and Evan Bates were third (85.15).

The new world champions will be crowned in Stockholm when French couple Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron decide to skip the race due to pandemic confusion.

We remind you that in the women’s competition, Lithuanian Elžbieta Kropa finished her performance after the short program, in which she finished 37th (41.31 points).
