At Casa Italia, there are also those who resign immediately over the Olympic flop: a Swiss

FISI

“I take responsibility for the disappointing results achieved by Italian athletes in the technical disciplines. After careful reflection, and taking note of the lack of the necessary relationship of mutual trust with the superiors, I consider it correct to take a step back. I thank FISI for the opportunity received and wish the athletes a future full of sporting satisfaction.” This was the statement released by Ticino technician Mauro Pini, head of men’s technical disciplines. A meeting will now follow in Milan at the end of the Olympic Games.

Among Pini’s students Alex Vinatzer, who certainly cannot be satisfied with his run at the Winter Olympics in Milan Cortina: in the combined he had failed to make an impact and in the giant had fallen in the second run, then the same thing happened in Bormio. The champion wanted to vent all his disappointment through a Facebook post: “It did not go as I dreamed, but every dream teaches something. The Olympics at home happen, if you are lucky, only once in a lifetime. For me, they were a big disappointment. I was not up to the task of performing when it really mattered”.

“I always thought that only medals counted in the Olympics. Therefore, I took a few extra risks in these competitions in order to chase the result I had dreamed of. Now, however, I came home empty-handed. Those who know me know that I never give up. I will give my all to get back up stronger. Finally, a heartfelt thank you to all of you who have always believed in me, cheered me on and supported me during this period. You know who you are, and my thanks go to each and every one of you. The season is not over.It’s back to work. With our heads held high. Always” Vinatzer added.

Just a few days earlier the champion had written another poignant message after the flop in the combined: “I don&#039t even know where to start.This is the sport. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.But mostly you learn. Even when you have to learn how much it can hurt to believe it all the way. Today was not easy for me. And I don’t say that to justify myself, because there are no excuses.Defending a descent done well, defending a first place and starting as last was not easy.Doing it then at home, in the Olympics, made it even more difficult”.
