Una curiosità: nello stesso stadio, l'Olympiastadion di Berlino, nel 1936 la nonna si classificò decima ai Giochi, il padre fece il suo primo record italiano il 30 luglio 1964, e il nipote, a trent'anni esatti, il 30 luglio 1994, stabilì il suo primo record nazionale (13"42 nei 100 hs) strappandolo al papà, che ancora lo deteneva...Coincidenza o destino?
