There are now five seasons that the 37 year-old Clusone has effectively abandoned the World Cup to engage successfully in the FIS Marathon Cup circuit races long distance (ranging from 42 to 90 km), which won in 2010. Sunday is scheduled to Livigno Sgambeda the race of 42 km free technique that opens the 2013-14 season and that Santus had long since established as the first goal.
This morning, therefore, when the coach Silvio Fauner has named the squad for the 30km skating in Davos, Santus has been puzzled: the wonderful news of his return to the World Cup, but bad because it will totally ruin his plans in view of the Sgambeda can not give up the trip to Switzerland.
These are the words of Santus reported on its Facebook page: "I was called up for the 30km of Davos but do not do it again because I had set as its objective the Sgambeda and then the FIS Marathon Cup This is another sign of '' ignorance of executives. They wanted the young ... fine. But where are the young people? Where is the team A? We only stop holes that'' s occurrence out of the cylinder, ruining the work of the whole summer''. At least our team of long-distance had a goal. '' From the other hand you live from day to day, where c'' is a true leadership but can not prevail and where you only need to have the "cadrega" for the'' next year. "
Harsh words that leave little room for interpretation.
