During MotoGP winter break, the first 2009 winter test will take place next February 5th in Sepang, MotoGP riders try to use in the best way their free time. Niccolò Canepa, Pramac Racing rider and student at University of Genova as Mechanic Engineer, went to Sestriere from December 5th to December 8th on the well-known ski resorts Vialattea. The structure that hosted the 2006 Olympics Games has, in fact, hosted the Italian rider during the biggest winter Italian university event, the Snowbreak, where in the Olympic village and the hotels in the piedmont’s city have arrived almost two thousands students from all over Italy. Niccolò has participated to various events, some motorsport as well, like snow scooters and pitbikes.

“This has been for me a special occasion to feel like a normal student. To stay with people of my age that are as well enrolled in university made me feel really good. It’s the first time I participate to the Snowbreak but it will not be the last. Cento&venti management, the agency that has organized this incredible event, has done a phenomenal work. I was impressed of the amount of students that were here and notwithstanding this everybody was always busy with various events, competitions and parties that were in program. Of course this hasn’t been for me just a vacation, next year an important season is waiting for me and also here I trained every morning in the gym and I followed a specific diet. Yesterday I was also able to ski for a while. I have to thanks Vialattea, the city of Sestriere and Cento&venti management for the marvelous hospitality they have given me.”
Andrea Colarelli – Major of the city of Sestriere
“Snowbreak has become a successful event, we are really happy of the level of organization and of the type of the event it is as it involved many young people. It has reached an incredible amount of participants and from a couple of years we have hosted important sport persons well-known worldwide such as Niccolò Canepa this edition. We are honored to have him here. This event has become for us the kick off of the skiing season and in the last couple of years the weather has also been on our side bringing a lot of snow. Also thanks to Snowbreak, in the city there is already a Christmas holidays atmosphere, streets are very busy and this for Sestriere and our skiing structure is an important sign.” |
