Fausto Coppi, il primo dei più grandi

On the occasion of the centenary of Fausto Coppi’s birth, Beppe Conti proposes a ranking that will be an opportunity to discuss and tell the stories, adventures and triumphs of the ten greatest cyclists of all time. The choice takes into account the greatness of the character before the results obtained, the time in which he competed, the feats achieved more than the number of victories. And the emotions aroused in people. In the second part of the book, twenty-three personalities who live the great cycling with passion reveal their preferences, creating curious rankings to read: famous journalists, from Gianni Mura to Massimo Gramellini and many others, entrepreneurs like Alfredo Ambrosetti and Ennio Doris, doctors and managers. In conclusion, a photographic tribute to the Campionissimo to relive his legend.


Beppe Conti, giornalista sportivo, ha scritto su Tuttosport per oltre 30 anni. Ora è un corrispondente per Rai Sport. Nel 2006 ha vinto il Premio CONI. Il suo libro Una vita da Pirata, dedicato a Marco Pantani, è stato tradotto in giapponese.
