They begin in the sign of Martina Fidanza The European Track Cycling Championships in Belgium: the Italian gives Italy its first medal by winning gold in the scratch. Before winning her second continental title in a specialty that has also seen her twice as a world champion, the athlete from Bergamo had been among the protagonists of the beautiful performance of the pursuit quartet, who qualified with the second time behind Germany: today the Italian train will play for access to the final against Great Britain.
Nothing to be done, however, for Elia Viviani: the veteran of our national team, who just turned 36, was the eighth to exit the scene in the elimination, one of his favorite matches.

In addition to Fidanza with the quartet of women, completed by Martina Alzini and from the Olympics Chiara Consonni e Vittoria Guazzini, the new men’s train will also be hunting for medals today, without Ganna e Milan concentrated on road races and with Lamon the only survivor of the Olympic triumph in Tokyo together with the debutants Nicolò Galli, Davide Boscaro e Renato Favero: thanks to an encouraging fourth time, the Azzurri will play today for the passage to the final with the strong favorite Denmark.
