Letter from Malagò to the icon of Italian motorboating:

You have been added to the list of the ” 100 Legends of Italian Sports”
ARTICLE
On Rosignano hill, from the terrace of his new home made from volcanic rocks, Renato Molinari looks out over the vineyards and woods of Monferrato.
There, in that place where the icon of Italian motorboating said to be re-born, he received great news yesterday. Giovanni Malagò, president of CONI (the Italian Olympic Committee), sent him a personal letter that announces his inclusion in the list of the “100 Legends of Italian Sports”.
This list is “A recognition that the world of sports has wanted to dedicate to all of you for your extraordinary careers as athletes and people and that will be represented in a path, by dedicated icons, along the Avenue of the Olympics and of the Foro Italico in Rome.”

 

A short message from Bruno:

“Quite an achievement, I’d say. Strange to see he now lives 150 km away from Cernobbio on Lake Como where I believe the Molinari’s had their boat building yard, close to the Lake that was his racing homeground. But then again, Rosignano Hill is only 10 km away from Casale Monferrato, another iconic place in the history of Italian powerboat racing”
