В субботу Флоран Амодио, который пробует себя в качестве интервьюера, проводил в инстаграме интервью с Хави.
Целиком интервью в двух частях: часть 1, часть 2.
Не обошлось, конечно, без вопроса про Юзу (Флоран шел по википедии). Жаль, что вопрос пришелся аккурат на стык видео (инстаграм позволяет делать записи не длиннее часа), может, Хави бы продолжил мысль (но Флоран в принципе довольно часто его сбивал с мысли, ненадотак).
Вырезанные куски Хави про Юзу:

Скрипт от анона. Кто увидит неточность, сообщите, плиз.
(часть 1)
Flo: Your partner on ice, Yuzuru 'Anyu
Javi (кивает): Yuzu.
F.L Legend of figure skating. So, can you talk about that relation, how it helped you to be better.
J.: Yeah. I think it did help both of us. You know, he is a great skater, he... The energy he puts into training every day, and the energy he puts into competition every day, it's unbelievable. It's something to admire. And to have him on the ice and to have him on the trainings, it not only helped me, it helped more skaters in the rink, just because the energy that we had into the ice every day each practice, the environment that that creates, to be all together, it was an energy of work. An energy of suffering sometimes, but also you could see the great team and what everyone is trying to achieve, and how much they work for it. So it did help both of us. I will never say anything different.
F.: Yeah, I feel it was magical.
J.: Exactly. But at the same time it's similar that we were training all together in the States or in Russia [это про тренировки с группой Морозова]. To be able to skate with different skaters, skaters that compete with you, it gives you that energy. Now, when you have your best rival in front of you - it's a little bit more. Also because Yuzu has a personality, and he is a fighter, you know, he would not, you know, he doesn't wanna give me the gold medal. And I'm the same, I'm like "Yuzu-u-u".
(часть 2)
F.: You was talking about this team you was with the legend of figure skating, you guys are two legends, Yuzuru 'Anyu. You just said that you guys create like a magical time but at the same moment you was fighting for the gold medal. And what happened in your head when you've beat Yuzuru at Worlds?
J.: What happened? You know... he... I saw how strong skater he is at practice and in competition, and he... you know, really difficult skater to beat, beacuse he has it in his skating and in his personal way of being. I was happy, of course, for me, because to be able to create a fight, to be able to win it... I was like "I did it, I did it". And it was really difficult. But at the same time, you know, you sharing that moment with that skater, or with a friend, that you skate with him every day. At the same time when I was [training] with you at - but we even skating together. When you were there at... at your last competition. What was your last competiton?
F.: Bratislava, yes.
J.: At Bratislava, exactly. To have that feeling to see a skater, that you know is fighting a lot, and have him close to you in the podium, and you can share that moment. This is special, is really special.
F.: It looks like more than figure skating, you know. It looks like more... moment of life, you know.
J.: Yes, yes, But I think that life is created of those moments.
F.: Exactly.
