A triumph phenomenal gold with a world record. Gregory Paltrinieri flies in 14’08 “06 and winning the gold at the European Short Course and delete a legend, one of the oldest records, the Australian Grant Hackett in 2001 in Perth (14’10″ 10). An enterprise timekeeping sensational half always under the previous limit for the world champion in short course and long after the attack 60 tanks. Magnificent Greg. And Gabriel Said, his twin training, is silver in 14’18 “00, bronze for the Norwegian Henrik Christiansen (14’23″ 60). They are the children of the Moro. Fantastic. The spoils dell’Italnuoto in Israel has thus risen to 10 podiums, considering silver Marco Orsi in 50 sl.

And to think that on the eve of these European short course, about the record Hackett, Paltrinieri told us: “I think it’s pretty far: 14’10″ is a tempone. I should be super to clear Hackett, at 14’16 “how can I get in Doha, but it’s tough. And anyway does not make sense to make a world record now. This year all the attention is projected on the Games, not to do 14’02 “Short Course”.
The convenience of great image a little ‘weight?
“I am ready even to lose the next 2-3 races but to win in Rio. I know I’ve done so much this year but I have to start from scratch. Last year I came to Doha carefree and made a crazy race. I can train well but at the same time losing the races of the season, but do not want me to be influenced by this. It could happen that it does a great time in April, but I will not have demoralize. It is the Olympic year and I know I potermela play “.
The return of competitive Said put pepper between the twins?
” Gabriel and I have always trained together, albeit with some different programs. It suits both: to him to have me, and I have him. “
