"For me today is a day of mixed feelings, because on one side there is the second podium in two days that can only make me happy, on the other there are the 'serious injury of a teammate ( Federica Sosio, ed) and a series of dangerous falls.I am not completely satisfied with my performance in the race, at the finish I knew where I was wrong, but I did my race and I respected the deliveries, apart from the jump, where I went again long, and also the following curves I made them a bit 'out of phase .. But that's okay, obviously come back and make two consecutive podiums can only give me great confidence and enormous confidence .. These two days are mainly used to understand in which direction I have to work and that's what I'll do in the next days ". "I thank the federation and all the technical staff that allowed me to get back up almost immediately, if I think that three weeks ago I could not even put the boot in. The falls of many athletes and the race declared ended early? goal must be to ensure the safety of all, today I found it a bit 'strange that they stopped the departures after three steps to file the jump ".
