Francesca Lollobrigida wants to amaze again

Francesca Lollobrigida wants to impress again. She did it at the Beijing Winter Olympics, winning the silver medal in the 3,000 meters and the bronze medal in the mass start, she did it again a few weeks ago, in Hamar, becoming the first Italian woman ever to put the gold medal around her neck in the world speed skating championships, over the 5,000-meter distance. And, of course, she wants to do so at the Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina.

“I’m trying to remain calm in this march of approach – she told Sportal.it -. I feel great responsibility, which has increased after the recent success, the first since I was a mother. Promises? Absolutely not… (laughs, ed.) but come all and see our races.”

The ‘Lollo’ spoke on the sidelines of a meeting organized at the Salone del Mobile by On Location, Official Hospitality Provider of Milan Cortina 2026.
