Vortex in South Tyrol: Dolomites winter sports stronghold gets 81.6 million euro new building. By building the ice track, Italy wants to prevent the hosting of the 25th Winter Olympics from being outsourced abroad.
Due to the high costs of a new building and unsafe use after the end of the Winter Games, consideration was given to moving the event abroad. However, the Italian government was adamant about holding the event in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo.
