Davide Cassani, as a professional road cyclist, won two stages in the Giro d'Italia, two team time trials in the Tour de France and wore the blue jersey several times as a “racing director”. Television commentator for Rai, over the years he has become the voice of Italian cycling.
Since 2014 he has been CT of the Italian road cycling team. After various prestigious titles, he closes his mandate in 2021 with Filippo Ganna's second consecutive triumph in the Time Trial World Championship and with the fourth European in a row on the road, this time thanks to Sonny Colbrelli. Successes that are the result of years of meticulous preparation with the support of Scienza Enervit, official sponsor of the National team.
Under the direction of Linus, he is part of the winning team of DeeJay Training Center: the broadcast supported by Enervit has become the reference point for "sport for those who do it", that is, for enthusiasts of fatigue and active fun, broadcast on Radio DeeJay every Sunday at 12 noon.
Author of several books on cycling, he is now an authoritative voice and reference point for the Italian cycling movement.
