After a faulty freestyle, the two Berliners only managed a disappointing eighth place at the European Figure Skating Championships in Tallinn. As expected, the top three Russian couples fought for the medals among themselves.

Mistakes with the German duo Hase/Seegert
By this time, Hase and Seegert had long been squatting in the catacombs with sad faces. The four-time national champions failed too much that evening. A crashing fall, a completely screwed up lift – with petrified expressions, the duo literally crept off the ice.
Aljona Savchenko suffered in her native Oberstdorf with the German couple. “You have to see it as a dress rehearsal. It’s better if the mistakes happen now instead of at the Olympics,” said the gold medalist from Pyeongchang 2018 on ARD. Hase explained the used day like this: “We put too much pressure on ourselves.”
Pair runners Hocke/Kunkel run past expectations
Annika Hocke and Robert Kunkel missed the hoped-for top ten by far. After a far from optimal freestyle, it was only enough for 13th place, so the third German starting place for the EM 2023 in Helsinki was lost.
