Company of Dutch Ireen Wust, who today won the 1500 meters speed skating race in Beijing 2022 (Italian Francesca Lollobrigida seventh). For the Dutchman, who is 35 years old and is thinking of retiring after these Games, it is the sixth Olympic gold medal, but above all the seal of a career that makes her go down in history.
