“I would have signed up for silver and bronze. After the individual competition I knew that the team event would be a big chance for a medal, especially with Michela who is in great shape. I have been working for the past month and a half to be here after the injury; the doctors told me I would make it and I tried to live it well, even if I wasn’t 100% »explained Visintin.

That full month without training was used well: “To rest, to stay calm and enjoy life at home.” Michela, on the other hand, was looking for a rematch after the single test. «The individual went as we know and today I really wanted to make a medal with Omar. It was the first time of this race at the Olympics and in the end it is an extra medal chance. I was very tense, but I had Omar who, in addition to starting in front, he dragged me with his tranquility and positivityand I just tried to do a good race ».

These two days he underwent physiotherapy on his ankles, for the after-effects of the fall in the single. «Then Omar got the bronze and I got very excited. I went to the awards ceremony, the first I saw for a friend of mine, and he charged me“.

Now we are waiting for your friend Sofia Goggia who came out reassured by the first test of the downhill on February 16th. “There was no guarantee I was here, this is already a success, I see no reason why I shouldn’t be so happy. I liked the confidence I had in the gate. I’m happy with the way my leg feels. I just feel a little bit of pain every now and then somewhere. I can’t say I’m healed, I have to manage. For me, however, the Olympic Games are everything, they are the place where I want to be to achieve my dreams as a child. There is no place where I would like to be more willingly, regardless of how I am. “
