Dinamo Sassari closes pre-season with a bang

Dinamo Banco di Sardegna closes the 2023/2024 preseason schedule with a bang: before the start of the regular season, coach Piero Bucchi’s men will make a stop in the south of the island where the first edition of the Miners Cup Trophy will be staged. A few years later, great basketball returns to Carbonia, in the picturesque setting of the Palazzetto dello Sport in Via delle Cernitrici, with the doubleheader between Banco di Sardegna and the Hellenic team of Peristeri Athens. The ’date è set for Sept. 22 and 24 with the ball at 8 p.m.: the ’event è organized by the Municipality of Carbonia together with the Carbonia Miners basketball school.

“We are extremely happy to close this month of preseason in Carbonia, with two games against an opponent of great caliber such as Peristeri – stressed Dinamo Banco di Sardegna CEO Francesco Sardara -. We re-embrace a center that has a great hunger for basketball and sports culture, with state-of-the-art sports facilities, thus touching the island from north to south passing through the interior, in the sign of our philosophy as a team of all Sardinia. A long season of challenges in Italy and Europe awaits us and we are sure that the warmth of Carbonia will be the right fuel to approach the start of official commitments with great energy”.

Carbonia Mayor Pietro Morittu: “This is an extraordinary event for our city, which will be at the center of the proscenium of international basketball with the presence of the teams of Dinamo Sassari and Peristeri. We are pleased and proud to host for a few days in Carbonia the champions of these two teams who will compete for the first edition of the trophy and train in the city, gathering the&rsrs;embrace and warmth of the many basketball fans and enthusiasts of the cityà and the territory. Our Sports Hall, which will be the focus of major energy efficiency upgrades, is confirmed to be comfortable and state-of-the-art sports facility in the entire province of South Sardinia”.

Councillor for Sport Giorgia Meli: “I thank the Basket Miners school of Carbonia for organizing an initiative that will bring prestige to the city and the entire territory, which will be able to boast the presence and participation of basketball players of high technical level. A strategic showcase with positive effects in terms of return of image for Carbonia and with economic spin-offs also for some activitiesà that insist in the city”.

As for the opponent, Peristeri è a team that has gained credit within the Greek and international scene, thanks also to the arrival on the bench of former Olympiakos star player Vasilis Spanoulis, a true icon of European basketball. Interesting, competitive roster, in the control booth there&#rsquo;s a caliph like Joe Ragland who has crossed Dinamo’s path several times in the past, while Renfro and Hands were Banco’s opponents last season in Basketball Champions League with Paok. From AEK è came guard Kenny Williams, while in the long role there’s key Dangubic, last year at Promitheas. Peristeri è placed in Basketball Champions League Group A along with the Hungarians from Falco, the Spaniards from Malaga and the French del Les Mans.

Starting today, Saturday, Sept. 16, è presale is active: è tickets can be purchased at the box office of the Sports Hall open daily from Monday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. (excluding Sunday).

Carlos Sainz returns on farewell to Ferrari and è candid about Lewis Hamilton

During an interview given to the microphones of the Spanish newspaper “As”, Carlos Sainz è returned to talk about his farewell to Ferrari to make way for seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton starting in 2025.

“I have no negative words toward Ferrari, and I don&#39t think they have any negative feelings toward me either. It’s a relationship that hasn’t been broken because we’re not happy with each other, but because of a circumstantial issue. I remain convinced that if Hamilton had not wanted to end his career at Ferrari, I would have renewed. To a seven-time world champion, però è impossible to say no and I understand the team&#39s choice to confirm Charles and not me” began the Spanish driver.

“When I arrived at Ferrari, the team was going through a very difficult time. In 2020 they were far behind the best. I am very proud of the progress this team has made thanks in part to my work. These have been seasons that have allowed me to win my first F1 races, get my first pole positions and win several podiums. I am happy to have come to a historic team and to have had the pleasure of driving Ferrari over these years” continued the’former McLaren.

“Charles è one of the fastest drivers I have ever faced, especially on a dry lap. Between us the difference è always been minimal. The only problems came from always going to the track together, one after the other, but that è was the advantage of Ferrari with a very balanced pair of drivers” added the Spanish number 55.

“My next adventure will be at Williams, where I will try to do something similar to what I did in Ferrari and McLaren. I want to help the team improve moving forward. I have the experience and the good energy to help them progress. I have been good in the past and my next goal è to bring the stable to the top 10. If we do well in the next two years, I would like to be able to bet on Williams again in the future” concluded Carlos Sainz.

CONI President Giovanni Malagò spoke at the Allianz Tower in Milan on the sidelines of an event with Olympic and Paralympic athletes who participated in the Paris Games. During his speech, the Rome native wanted to dwell on the Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics and the role that Jannik Sinner will play, who will be one of the volunteers contributing to the event’s organization.

“The origins of Jannik Sinner, who è is from South Tyrol, suggest that he could have become the world number one in skiing. This we can never know, but we certainly know that he è become the number one in tennis” began the CONI president.

“Volunteers are crucial to the Olympics. Without them such an event would not be economically sustainable. Sinner will be the No. 1 volunteer in Milan-Cortina. It’s really a lot of stuff” added Giovanni Malagò.
