Fifth Episode of "Sfida Impossibile" in San Marino with Cycling Champion Vincenzo Nibali

Saturday 4 October at 14:15 on Italia 1


 

On Saturday 4 October at 14:15, "Sfida Impossibile" returns to Italia 1. The show, filmed entirely in the Republic of San Marino, features host Stefano Corti challenging a great sports champion in a competition based on courage, humor, and the desire to push beyond one's limits.

After facing off with motorcycling icon Marco Melandri, volleyball giant Ivan Zaytsev, the lioness of Italian fencing Elisa Di Francisca, and alpine skiing legend Kristian Ghedina, Stefano Corti challenges "The Shark" of cycling, Vincenzo Nibali. The challenge begins with a steep uphill race, followed by an attempt to throw Nibali off balance before reaching the final showdown.

In each episode, the host faces the champions in three different challenges: The Corti Challenge, where he will try to use his personal skills; The Anything Goes Challenge, a no-rules race where any strategy is allowed; and the Final Challenge, the most feared moment, where he competes directly in the athlete's discipline, with the help of a Super Bonus. What will the host come up with this time to defeat one of the greatest Italian cyclists of all time?

In this episode, San Marino once again becomes the setting for an exciting challenge that combines sports, entertainment, and promotion of the local area.

"Sfida Impossibile" is produced by Gian Luca Baldini of EGE Produzioni for RTI, with executive production by Marianna Capelli (EGE Produzioni), in collaboration with Brand On Solution of Publitalia ’80. The direction is entrusted to Jovica Nonkovic, while the creative team includes Cristiana Mastropietro and Francesca Petrocelli, with the collaboration of Alessandro Mannucci.

The appointment is therefore set for Saturday 4 October at 14:15 on Italia 1.
