I remember car rides with my parents… my dad was an avid Dire Straits fan, and “Money for nothing” was one of my favorite songs!

Instead of legs he has two propellers – Riccardo Rossi says jokingly – I invited Simona Quadarella because we swim in the same pool and seeing the stubbornness with which she trains every day always makes me emotional. Because we are there on the sofa, but to win the medals, she fights, there in that tub, to extract a cent from her life.”
