The words of Luca Banchi after the victory against GeVi Napoli

Coach Luca Banchi spoke in a press conference after Virtus Bologna’s 88-75 away win against GeVi Napoli. “An important victory that comes after a cycle of very tough games, two consecutive away games – he emphasized -. We bring home as many victories and file this trip with satisfaction, with the knowledge that today we violated a court where few teams will be able to win this season, we did it with good authority, built on an important second period and with a second quintet able to keep up the level of intensityà and quality, without giving space to our opponents. We were not as accurate on the’inevitable comeback, especially from the emotional point of view, of Napoli to preserve a resilient lead, but nevertheless Napoli never è got to a single-digit disadvantage distance and this convinces me that we are on a good path but still with the margins to express a continuityà of play that would do more honor to the effort we produce, especially in the defensive halfà field.

“This è a team that has its own clear identity, we work on a pre-existing structure and on an emotional value that è related to the previous season, a season of finals but unfortunately of lost finals – added the coach of the bianconeri -. After the Supercup, Bologna has certainly accumulated a lot of desire and will; to want to prove that it wants to compete. Having on the team veterans and players of such experience certainly facilitates the coach’s task, because’they are by my side in trying to keep the level of tension high in a league that does not give us room to maneuver because’the level of contenders’is very high and in a’Euroleague where we are among the last to arrive and are trying to continue on a promising start to the season”.

“There’è so much to be done in terms of continuityà and performance, we can’t stay out of trouble, even tonight too many lost balls and avoidable and trivial mistakes that do not fully do justice to a team that is producing a great effort. I stand by the application and availability, but I am aware that there’s still a lot of room to try to bring this team to performance levels that can allow us to fuel our aspirations and ambitions. I have been doing this job for a long time even though I have been missing for a while’ from the Italian league, the calendar in the initial phase has a valence on the current rankings because’ è è it is inevitable that it can generate inequalities, there are teams that have a different level of preparation and cohesion. In the Italian league, the ranking should be looked at the end of the first round, deadline that determines the eight teams that will go to the Coppa Italia, which will be played on a neutral field with dry matches. From there, over a range of 15 games, one can see the trend of a team” concluded Banchi.

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.

“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.
