Speed skating fans, did you see what happened to Italy’s rising star, Lorenzo Previtali, at the Euros? In a wild semifinal, a rival’s blade sliced his leg so deep you could see the bone—Coach Gouadec called it a nightmare. Thanks to top-notch shin guards, Previtali avoided disaster and is already eyeing a comeback for Milano-Cortina. Talk about grit! Can the Italian prodigy bounce back in time for his home Olympics? #Sports #WinterOlympics2026 #SpeedSkating
