#LAVUELTA: AZZURRI AL TOP… E ORA CASSANI HA L’IMBARAZZO DELLA SCELTA

Matteo Trentin è solo l’ultimo degli azzurri in grande forma in questo periodo e che mette in condizione di imbarazzo il CT Davide Cassani. Per quale ragione? Perché il selezionatore azzurro si trova a dover gestire una rosa che sembra sprizzare di salute. In passato aveva registrato una serie di defezioni, come quando, proprio Matteo Trentin, si chiamò fuori dai Mondiali spagnoli di Ponferrada. In quell’occasione Cassani aveva apprezzato moltissimo l’onestà intellettuale in azzurro che piuttosto che nascondersi dietro ad una scusa aveva serenamente dichiarato la sua scarsa forma. Fu il Mondiale in cui Alessandro De Marchi venne lanciato in fuga per tutto il giorno e nel finale di giornata […]

#LAVUELTA: WHAT ABOUT FAIRPLAY? NO, A RACE IS A RACE

#LAVUELTA: WHAT ABOUT FAIRPLAY? NO, A RACE IS A RACE

Chris Frome snorts, misses a gear and sees the chain jumping … then he changes the bicycle and starts again. He put too much energy needing to return in the peloton, so he force on pedals but the low lucidity in the curve makes him fall. The skill, the real one, is to keep the cold blood to be able to regain the mental serenity after the fall and challenge the tension of those who just made a double mistake on live TV. In the end he is the one who has everything to lose as he is the strongest, but he is still in advantage over the opponents in the overall standings, and with a […]

#LAVUELTA: WHAT DOES NIBALI SAY

#LAVUELTA: WHAT DOES NIBALI SAY

CALAR ALTO: Someone has seen the stars and it is possible since the arrival of Vuelta was located at the Calar Alto Astronomical Observatory. Vincenzo Nibali tries several times to win this race and he gets really close. He miss just one think to complete the perfect day and gap also Chris Froome that in this Vuelta is the man to defeat launched towards a double victory Tour-Vuelta. Nibali has all the potential even though the Iberian race is still long. Nibali attacks, eyes are those of the tiger. He puts all the power needed to create a gap that never rises over a few dozen meters. In Sicilian grimaces we can see all the fatigue and […]
