Sportweek, on newsstands with Jacobs, Thuram and Lunger

He is the man of the year (sportsman), capable with his sprints to arouse in the Italians at least the same enthusiasm as the European national champion Mancini: Marcell Jacobs is perhaps the brightest star present at the Sport Festival organized by the Gazzetta a Trento from 7 to 10 October and his face is on the cover of Sportweek on newsstands tomorrow, 2 October, together with the newspaper at a total price of 2 euros. The double Olympic gold medalist in view of the event that will see him protagonist on Sunday 10th on the stage of the Auditorium Santa Chiara (at 6 pm alone and at 7 pm with his companions of the 4×100, also in streaming on Gazzetta.it) has released us a long exclusive interview in which he confides passions, secrets, fears and a dream: “Going into space: they just proposed it to me and almost almost …”.

ALL THE PROTAGONISTS

The most iconic image of our Tokyo Games is that of Gianmarco Tamberi who immediately after winning the gold in the high goes to embrace Jacobs at the 100-meter finish line, and in Trento there will also be the blue jumper. With him on stage two monuments of the specialty: the American Dick Fosbury, who revolutionized it in the 1960s by inventing the style that bears his name, and the Cuban Javier Sotomayor, who exalted that style until arriving in 1993. at 2.45 meters, a record still unbeaten. Waiting to hear them live, find their story on Sportweek. Lilian Thuram will also come to Trento to present her third book on racism, “The white thought”: the former defender of Parma and Juventus, world champion with France in 1998, anticipates its contents on SW accompanied by a j ‘accusations: “Racism in Italian stadiums is more widespread than in Germany, where my son Marcus plays”. Another prominent presence at the Festival is that of Francesca Piccinini, who on the magazine on newsstands tomorrow traces her life and career as a symbol of Italian women’s volleyball through seven emblematic images (7 Champions League on the bulletin board). The South Tyrolean mountaineer Tamara Lunger, who lost 5 friends on K2 last winter, tells her story, but this time dramatic. The tragedy gave her months of inner darkness from which she came out writing a book (“The call of K2”) and going to Pakistan to teach women and girls to climb with “Climbing for a Reason”, a project conceived by Chilean JP Mohr , one of the five deceased mountaineers. And to close, together with the usual columns including a sparkling friend found again Luciano Marangon (free spirit champion of Italy with Verona in 1985), do not miss the splendid images of the last Barcolana, the regatta with the most participants in the world, which will play on Sunday 10 October in Trieste.
