The twenty year old Lombard who this season has raced alongside the pilot Serena Capponcelli getting results rather than lunsinghieri considering the objectives that had been planned by engineers at the beginning of the season, has decided to entrust the well-known social networking site Facebook his thoughts that we I quote in full.
"It saddens me to see the Olympics aware that if someone believed in us from the start we could be there, it seems that many have been brought only to participate .. And then what sense does it point to the young people in the Olympics if then there are always the usual? understand if there were any medals but here I seem to only half of the investments then why not us?! hope someone does some reflection on choices which in part also affects our lives and our future. Anyway someone early in the season had told us to concentrate on the World Junior because that would have been a goal more real and within our reach .. So we did, we came fourth and I was so glad that I competed because I am taking a little revenge. This summer I decided to work to support myself because according to the technicians the Olympics we would not have ever done, not what I would have done if I had been told that there would be even a slightest chance to go to Sochi The absurd .. (but this is normal in Italy) is that the technicians in mid-January they told us that we had a chance to participate in the Olympics .. Why do not we go? This still almost did not I know!'s amazing and I leave to you the reflection of how you can make a goal early in the season as the Junior World Championships and then found to have a chance to go to an Olympics absolute .. For those unfamiliar with the bob to a Junior World Championship is open to all athletes under 26 years old and is a race that takes place each year; nothing to do with the Olympics absolute, then you will understand well that the preparation is quite different ... Congratulations to all for the wonderful organization .. "
