(ANSA) – ROME, AUGUST 09 – “It will be an exciting European, this is the strongest national team ever. How many golds will Italy win? More than ten”. In the unprecedented role of godmother of the European swimming championships, Federica Pellegrini predicts the chances of a blue victory on the day of the presentation of the Italia Team. Her record in the 200 style she recorded in the capital in 2009 is still standing. “I would not have expected it – admits the Divine – In the space of a few years they have all been beaten, mine is the only one of that era that holds up. Something will mean”. And when she is asked if she regrets leaving her without trying to extend her career to the European Championships, at home she replies without hesitation: “No, I’m not sorry”. “With hindsight many different choices are made in life: if I had swum a different deficit – she continues referring to the times in the pool – I would have made different decisions but I am still happy like this”. The ‘Divina’, who had already confessed a bit of regret at the World Championships in Budapest for having realized that she could still get on the podium, concluded: “Another 8 months of training I would not have held up. It is logical that everything changes, seeing so many absent and then above all the European at home … But you can’t do the math like this “. (HANDLE).
