Qualche conferma, qualche sorpresa, molti nomi stranieri a dare risalto alla manifestazione e poi… e poi leggi che Pietro D’Ali classe ‘63 che pensavamo stesse riposando dopo le fatiche della Solitaire du Figaro, le mille partecipazioni come professionista su cassoni e monotipi… ha preso una Star, l’amico Colaninno e, senza nessun allenamento o preparazione è andato a Formia a scornarsi contro gente come Scheidt, Loof ma soprattuto contro i vari Celon e Negri che da tempo dedicano tutte le loro giornate alla Star, preparandosi per le Olimpiadi. Ha concluso quinto dietro i mostri sacri ma ha vinto tra i nazionali, diciassette anni dopo il suo primo titolo italiano (quell’anno con la star vinse anche l’europeo). Ci fa ricordare quando, durante una lunghissima campagna AC con Luna Rossa si presentò al volo alle qualifazioni olimpiche… nessun allenamento, vinse e alla fine alle olimpiadi Sydney 2000 ci andò! Pietrino è probabilmente il velista più completo che abbiamo in Italia.
