Latest before GP Quebec and Montreal:
"In Germany I didn't do very badly, but I didn't do very well either. Obviously it wouldn't be a problem to come to the World Championships with a role in the service of the Italian cause, on the contrary. But, because of the respect I have for the national team's jersey, I know that you have to have an excellent condition. Otherwise, it wouldn't be right to take someone's place. So let's say that I don't have the World Championship scheduled for the moment. After Canada we'll talk about it."
