Which is nicer, the girl or the car?my apologies, they are not Mercedes they are Audis .... even nicer!
Alexandra Patskevich, part of Russia's dominant synchronized swimming team, posing by the Audi A8 that she won for her gold medal performance.
So what do the losers get? Ten years in Siberia?
All joking aside, at least Putin isn't torturing and killing his athletes if they loose.
A total of 45 cars the most expensive being $120,000 to the gold medalists
Yes! that's a nice gesture I think!
So then Russia went above and beyond their duty to the athletes ...rewarding them with these luxury cars... good for them!
(I don't see Obama ever doing that ...LOL..... just don't see it ...)

It is nice and appropriate as far as I am concerned.
"For comparison's sake, the United States Olympic Committee pays its winners $25,000 for a gold medal, $15,000 for a silver and $10,000 for a bronze medal. Kazakhstan leads the medal payment rate at $250,000 for a gold, but has not had a gold medalist at the Winter Olympics in 20 years".
Y! SPORTS
If there was ever a travesty and injustice, that would be it. These athletes sacrifice the best years of their lives to get to this level, including an exorbitant amount of money that went into their training. And as soon as they get to this point where they can represent our country and actually win a medal, the govt. steps in and taxes them?Awards to athletes should not be taxed.
I hate taxes.
I wonder if they would have done this same if this wasn't in Sochi? Interesting read though!
Well, ice and snow is the same everywhere.I wonder if they would have done this same if this wasn't in Sochi? Interesting read though!
