It’s been a seriously good week for Russia’s Sochi Winter Olympic medallists, but the Swiss winners may be feeling a tad left out…
According to reports, Russia has given their gold medallists from the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics a brand new Mercedes Benz 4×4 and a nice chunk of change too, to the tune of $120,000 (€87,000). Meanwhile, Switzerland’s double gold medallist, Dario Cologna, got a pig. Poor fella…
