Maria Pavlova/Alexei Sviatchenko (HUN) 3./73.04 PB Maria: We're pretty happy with the results of the short program. There are still things to improve on. We had some difficulties, but it was skating skills. But we're very happy. It's better than in France. I think we tried to focus less on the elements and more on the program. Today was better, but still we're not perfect. We're working towards that goal, but the elements were the same (as in France). It didn't improve or anything. Maybe the death spiral was even worse than in Grand Prix France, but it's okay. #figureskating #nhktrophy #gpfigure

Sara Conti/Niccolo Macii (ITA) 1./ 208.58 Sara: It was a very big competition, like tension was so high today. I feel it in all the elements, but I'm happy because every element was a very good fight. Of course, it was not the best program that we did, but we can work more and do our best in the next competition. Niccolo: (on preparing for the Grand Prix Final) We're going to probably focus more on the lifts, like a lot of the lifts. I'm really happy about some elements during this program today that are going better and better, but we know that we need to get more speed at the end, more energy, and lifts, lifts, lifts. So I will probably do the lifts while I'm cooking. #gpfigure #figureskating #nhktrophy

Charlene Guignard/Marco Fabbri (ITA) 2./198.67 SB Charlene: Actually, we are very happy that the competition is ending because every day I feel worse for my physical condition. Today was very hard, but we felt good on the ice, we skated well. We are happy about the way we performed and the way we ended this competition. Marco: Since we decided to start the season a little bit later, we are quite happy with the performances we had in both our Grand Prix. We know that's just the beginning of the season for us. We just competed for the first time this year, three weeks ago. So the programs still have a lot of margin for improvement, but we got some feedback from these two competitions and we will work on the feedback we got. #figureskating #gpfigure #nhktrophy
