Winning an Olympic medal. (Athlete, Jun 2021)
In May 2021, along with his teammate Federico Pellegrino, he joined the Russian training group of their common national trainer Markus Cramer. The Russian and the Italian Federations signed a contract in order to exchange experiences and new ideas so athletes of both countries are training together during summer and fall 2021. The goal is to have the best possible preparation for the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games for the athletes of both countries. His personal goal during this training year is to improve motivation, technique, and abilities. (xc-ski.de, 26 Jan 2021; Athlete, Jun 2021)
