(15.5.2025) Tri šprinty, tri odlišné scenáre, traja rôzni víťazi. Kým šprint do Lecce sa nijako nevymykal klasickému hromadnému dojazdu z ktorého ťažil Casper van Uden, príjazd do Matery naplnil očakávanú selekciu a fotofiniš pre ružového Madsa Pedersena. A cesta do Neapola? Keď zaprší na juhu Talianska, tak sa cesta mení na klzisko. Neželané podmienky vhodné k rýchlokorčuľovaniu spôsobili chaos v balíku a zamestnali lekárov. V neutralizovanom dojazde to cinklo Kadenovi Grovesovi. Aké škody napáchal hromadný pád 70 kilometrov pred páskou, sa budú vyhodnocovať zajtra. Diskutujte a súťažte s nami na Discorde!

Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin break down Casper van Uden's surprise stage win in Lecce, which shocked the sprint favorites and breathed life back into Picnic-PostNL's season. They discuss how Van Uden's team set him up for the win, and a few key moments from the finale, before previewing Wednesday's Stage 5, an explosive stage with a tough uphill finish. They predict who will win, how the action will play out, and which riders present the best betting value. Join Cycling: THEMOVE listeners get 30 days for free.

Spectacle-récit créé au moment des commémorations de la Première Guerre mondiale, Soldat Inconnu quinze-dix-huit met en scène le sort des soldats italiens qui, dans ce conflit d'une si grande ampleur, vont pour la première fois côtoyer leurs compatriotes dans une même zone de combat et apprendre à se connaître, alors que chacun parle un dialecte bien différent.Inspiré de lettres et de journaux de tranchées, il constitue le second volet d'un diptyque consacré par Mario Perrotta à la Grande Guerre. Perrotta choisit de mélanger plusieurs parlers d'Italie pour créer une langue qui soit la plus vivante mais aussi la plus étrange possible, et qui donne à voir la guerre dans toute son incompréhension, ses paradoxes et son horreur. La matérialité boueuse et crasseuse des tranchées se mêle au fracas des obus, à l'odeur du sang et des corps, dans une expérience multisensorielle où les sonorités langagières sont les vraies protagonistes, pour tisser un discours démystificateur qui remet en cause les propos officiels et le patriotisme des élites.Florence Courriol est née à Lyon en 1986. Docteure en études italiennes et traductologie à l'Université de Bourgogne (Dijon), elle  travaille sur la langue vernaculaire dans la fiction italienne contemporaine et sa traduction en français. Elle s'occupe de traductologie et de multilinguisme littéraire et a publié divers articles sur le sujet. Parallèlement elle mène une carrière académique en enseignant la langue et la littérature italiennes dans diverses universités françaises (Dijon, Rennes, Avignon, Grenoble). Elle enseigne actuellement le français à la Sapienza, avec une mission de coopération universitaire à l'Institut français.Mario Perrotta est né en 1970. Originaire de Lecce, il est comédien, dramaturge et metteur en scène. Ses pièces ont été distinguées par de nombreux prix. Elles se fondent sur la figure des laissés-pour-compte : les spectacles-récits qu'il élabore, met en scène et interprète lui-même abordent les thèmes de l'émigration, de la marginalité et, avec Milite Ignoto quindicidiciotto, celui de la guerre. , Soldat Inconnu quinze-dix-huit Soldat huit est sa première pièce publiée en version bilingue italien-français.

Emilia-Romagna is the birthplace of iconic Italian delicacies such as Mortadella, Tortellini in Brodo, Parmigiano-Reggiano, Prosciutto di Parma, traditional Balsamic Vinegar, Lambrusco, and egg-based fresh pastas like lasagna, tortellini, and tagliatelle.

The island is home to features like the Apennine Coast, the Adriatic Coast, and the Apennine Mountains. Most of Sardinia's population lives in the capital region of Cagliari, but much of the island remains untouched, offering visitors a glimpse into authentic Italian island life.One of Sardinia's most fascinating distinctions is that the Barbagia region is recognized as a Blue Zone—an area with an unusually high number of centenarians. This longevity is attributed to the region's healthy diet, active lifestyle, and strong sense of community. For outdoor enthusiasts, inland Sardinia offers some of the best biking and hiking experiences in all of Italy.Tourissimo Tip–What is a Blue Zone? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/blue-zoneThe island's coastlines are just as enticing. Costa Smeralda is often described as paradise on earth, with stunning beaches like Spiaggia di Tuerredda, Cala Goloritzé, and Spiaggia di Porto Giunco perfect for sunbathing and swimming. Don't miss the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park (Parco Nazionale dell'Arcipelago di La Maddalena), a protected area with crystal-clear waters and pristine landscapes.Charming towns such as Alghero, Bosa, and Cagliari add to the island's appeal. Many of Sardinia's towns are nestled in the mountains located in the island's center, offering a peaceful and scenic escape.Cultural and historical attractions abound. Must-see sites include the Nora Archaeological Park, Bastione di Saint Remy, Parco Archeologico Naturalistico di Santa Cristina, and the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Cagliari. For an unforgettable natural wonder, venture into the Frecce delle grotte srl and Neptune's Grotto, stunning sea caves accessible by boat or stairs carved into cliffs.Sardinia is also home to a unique ancient civilization. Scattered across the island are over 7,000 nuraghe—megalithic stone structures built during the Nuragic Age (c. 1900–730 BC). These mysterious, tower-like buildings are the island's most iconic symbol, and some scholars believe there were once over 10,000 nuraghe structures in total.Religious architecture also impresses, with highlights like the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e Santa Cecilia, the Church of the Holy Trinity of Saccargia, and the Basilica di San Simplicio showcasing Sardinia's spiritual and artistic heritage.Sardinian cuisine reflects its mountainous geography. Surprisingly, for an island, the diet leans more toward land-based ingredients than seafood. Signature dishes include Porceddu (roast pig), Fregola (a traditional Sardinian pasta), and the adventurous Casu marzu—a sheep's milk cheese intentionally infested with live maggots and considered a local delicacy. Sardinia also holds 16 one-star Michelin restaurants.To accompany these flavors, try a glass of Cannonau red wine, known for its high polyphenol content and potential health benefits, or the refreshing Vermentino white wine, perfect for warm Mediterranean days.Tourissimo Tip–Magic Trick or Pasta Making? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/magic-trick-or-pasta-making From the Alps to the Mediterranean, each Italian region is a world of its own.

La top2box dei traghettatori, Serse Cosmi e il jazz, la lotta per non retrocedere.

Il Napoli espugna Lecce e vede avvicinarsi il quarto Scudetto. Agli uomini di Conte basteranno, nella peggiore delle ipotesi, sette punti nelle prossime tre gare. Noi ne parliamo con Maurizio De Giovanni. L’Inter però non molla: basta un rigore di Asllani per superare il Verona a San Siro e tenere il passo dei partenopei. La testa ora va alla semifinale di ritorno di Champions League contro il Barcellona. Sentiamo Gianfelice Facchetti.Il campionato però è ancora aperto anche per quanto riguarda la zona Europa e per la rincorsa a un piazzamento Champions: vediamo cosa ne pensa Sandro Sabatini. Iacopo Savelli poi ci racconta il momento della Roma, impegnata alle 18,00 contro la Fiorentina. Con una vittoria i capitolini potrebbero alimentare le proprie speranze di centrare il quarto posto. Con Guido Vaciago invece parliamo del big match di stasera tra Bologna e Juventus, con due squadre alla caccia dello stesso obiettivo. Voliamo a Miami per la Formula 1: con Umberto Zapelloni analizziamo le qualifiche di ieri ed esaminiamo le prospettive della gara di oggi. La partenza è fissata alle 22,00 ora italiana. Infine viviamo insieme a Vincenzo Martucci il conto alla rovescia che ci separa dal ritorno in campo di Jannik Sinner.

La natura e la passione palpitano in queste pagine («Chi sa incendiarsi conosce bene la forza dei ruscelli»): uno sguardo puro sul mondo e sugli affetti. «Vi prego! Toglietemi tutto ma salvatemi gli occhi» chiede Alberto Casiraghy.

With the new rule change, we could be heading toward a Serie A final between Inter and Napoli.Bologna's win temporarily pushed them into 4th, applying pressure on Juve as they prepare to face Parma. Meanwhile, Milan's 1-0 defeat to Atalanta means they're likely to miss out on European football altogether unless they pull off something special in the Coppa Italia second leg.Roma bounced back from two draws with another narrow 1-0 win over a relegation-threatened side — this time against Verona, with Shomurodov getting the goal.In the relegation race, Como cruised to a 0-3 win over Lecce thanks to a Diao brace, while Empoli and Venezia played out a dramatic 2-2 draw, each scoring late.

See some photos and learn more here: https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/letizia-battaglia-groundbreaking-photojournalist-who-fearlessly-documented-the-mafia-in-her-native-sicilySardiniaSardinia, the second-largest island in the Mediterranean after Sicily, is a rugged, rural paradise known for its natural beauty, deep-rooted traditions, and ancient history. The island is home to features like the Apennine Coast, the Adriatic Coast, and the Apennine Mountains. Most of Sardinia's population lives in the capital region of Cagliari, but much of the island remains untouched, offering visitors a glimpse into authentic Italian island life.One of Sardinia's most fascinating distinctions is that the Barbagia region is recognized as a Blue Zone—an area with an unusually high number of centenarians. This longevity is attributed to the region's healthy diet, active lifestyle, and strong sense of community. For outdoor enthusiasts, inland Sardinia offers some of the best biking and hiking experiences in all of Italy.Tourissimo Tip–What is a Blue Zone? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/blue-zoneThe island's coastlines are just as enticing. Costa Smeralda is often described as paradise on earth, with stunning beaches like Spiaggia di Tuerredda, Cala Goloritzé, and Spiaggia di Porto Giunco perfect for sunbathing and swimming. Don't miss the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park (Parco Nazionale dell'Arcipelago di La Maddalena), a protected area with crystal-clear waters and pristine landscapes.Charming towns such as Alghero, Bosa, and Cagliari add to the island's appeal. Many of Sardinia's towns are nestled in the mountains located in the island's center, offering a peaceful and scenic escape.Cultural and historical attractions abound. Must-see sites include the Nora Archaeological Park, Bastione di Saint Remy, Parco Archeologico Naturalistico di Santa Cristina, and the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Cagliari. For an unforgettable natural wonder, venture into the Frecce delle grotte srl and Neptune's Grotto, stunning sea caves accessible by boat or stairs carved into cliffs.Sardinia is also home to a unique ancient civilization. Scattered across the island are over 7,000 nuraghe—megalithic stone structures built during the Nuragic Age (c. 1900–730 BC). These mysterious, tower-like buildings are the island's most iconic symbol, and some scholars believe there were once over 10,000 nuraghe structures in total.Religious architecture also impresses, with highlights like the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e Santa Cecilia, the Church of the Holy Trinity of Saccargia, and the Basilica di San Simplicio showcasing Sardinia's spiritual and artistic heritage.Sardinian cuisine reflects its mountainous geography. Surprisingly, for an island, the diet leans more toward land-based ingredients than seafood. Signature dishes include Porceddu (roast pig), Fregola (a traditional Sardinian pasta), and the adventurous Casu marzu—a sheep's milk cheese intentionally infested with live maggots and considered a local delicacy. Sardinia also holds 16 one-star Michelin restaurants.To accompany these flavors, try a glass of Cannonau red wine, known for its high polyphenol content and potential health benefits, or the refreshing Vermentino white wine, perfect for warm Mediterranean days.Tourissimo Tip–Magic Trick or Pasta Making? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/magic-trick-or-pasta-making From the Alps to the Mediterranean, each Italian region is a world of its own.

La prima volta in cui Lecce e Roma si sono affrontate in campionato al Via del Mare è stata il 15 dicembre del 1985, e ha vinto la Roma per 3-0 con i gol di Bonetti, Boniek e Tovalieri.

Anche con le luci spente del campionato nella pausa Nazionale, si è fatto un gran parlare dei movimenti delle panchine per il prossimo anno, con una delle voci più insistenti che vede Gasperini su quella della Roma. Ci pensa però Claudio Ranieri, nella conferenza stampa pre partita col Lecce, a mettere a tacere questa e le altre voci circolate sul futuro romanista. Ne parliamo col direttore del Corriere dello sport Ivan Zazzaroni. Ci colleghiamo con Stefano Meloccaro di Sky per commentare la fine dell'avventura di Berrettini e Paolini al Miami Open, sconfitti rispettivamente da Fritz e Sabalenka. Con la sconfitta di ieri sera col Barcellona, le speranze per i play-in di Eurolega si riducono di molto per l'Olimpia Milano e, intanto, si fa strada in Europa il progetto di una nuova lega cogestita da NBA e FIBA che potrebbe prendere il via già dalla stagione 2026-27. Facciamo il punto sull'attualità del basket con Guido Bagatta e Simone Sandri dagli Stati Uniti.
