“Una piccola scuola nella steppa kazaka”, Gianluca Chiarenza racconta la sua più grande passione: i Kazaki.

“Bella gente, i Kazaki, orgogliosa, onesta, non un briciolo di malizia, forti lavoratori dai duri lineamenti molto marcati a causa del difficile lavoro da svolgere in un clima insopportabile (+40°C in estate e -40°C in inverno). Ho trascorso un lungo periodo di lavoro con colleghi del luogo, gomito a gomito, 12 ore al giorno per molti giorni.”

“E’ facile strappare loro un sorriso, basta aprirsi e sorridere per primo, cercare di rendere l’argomento più positivo possibile, abituare a dire a chi ti è di fronte la parola “DA” che in russo significa “SI”; ecco che il sorriso affiora da quei volti  induriti dall’aria calda e secca dell’estate e quella fredda e pungente dell’inverno..”

Alexandr Vinokurov: medaglia d’oro nel ciclismo alle Olimpiadi Londra 2012

Un giorno atteso per un’intera carriera. Alexandre Vinokurov ha conquistato la medaglia d’oro nella corsa in linea del ciclismo, beffando in volata il colombianoRigoberto Uran, compagno di squadra di Mark Cavendish. Medaglia di bronzo per il norvegeseHristov che regola il gruppo degli inseguitori con i nostri Nibali e Paolini.

 

Decisivo lo scatto bruciante del kazako a cinque chilometri della fine con a ruota il passista colombiano. I Cambi regolari tra i due attaccanti hanno consentito al tandem di mantenere un distacco confortante dal gruppo degli inseguitori tradito dalla Spagna di Valverde e Castroneves.

 

Vinokourov conclude la sua attività agonistica con la vittoria più importante della sua carriera. Grande delusione per Mark Cavendish che regola in volata il plotone. Da segnalare le rovinose cadute di Fabian Cancellara e Tom Boonen a 10 km dal traguardo.
