Second place and not too positive thoughts for Gianmarco Tamberi. The blue champion of the high jump stops at 2.24 in Leverkusen, Germany in the True Athletes Classics: for the Italian record holder three errors at 2.27, and a step backwards compared to the 2.33 centered on June 10 at the Golden Gala in Florence . Gimbo misses the first jump to the entry measure of 2.16, so he has to run after the second attempt.
He does not make mistakes, however, at the following odds of 2.20 and 2.24, overcome at the first jump. With three centimeters more the problems begin for the European indoor silver who fails the 2.27 and has to leave the race, beaten by the German Jonas Wagner, the only one able to exceed the measure, before three errors at 2.30.
"For the second time in three races I jumped very far from what I thought I could do (the reference is at 2.20 on 6 June in Hengelo, ed). Evidently something is not working - the analysis of the blue - and you absolutely have to understand it very soon because the Olympics are exactly one month away. I never wanted to find myself skipping these measures 30 days from Tokyo ". Tamberi's next appointments towards the Olympic Games will be on July 6 in Hungary, in Szekesfehervar, and on July 9 in Montecarlo, on the platform of the Italian record (2.39 in 2016) and the subsequent injury. .
