Davide Martinelli: if there is an opportunity to help, why not do it?

The Northern Italy became one of the centers of the COVID-19 virus spread in Europe. The locality of Lodetto, part of the comune of Rovato near Brescia, is one of many places not only in Italy, but throughout Europe, where people are forced to abandon their usual lifestyle and isolate themselves at home in order to try to prevent the further spread of the coronavirus.

Davide Martinelli, the rider of Astana Pro Team, lives in Lodetto. Like the majority of other riders of the Kazakh team, as well as all other professional teams around the world, Davide spends almost all his time at home, waiting for the end of the pandemic, when the world will return to its normal life; when it will be possible to do again what he loves the most – to compete in professional races.
