Instead of tanks, the latest generation ones had to play with electric cars inside the Teulada war polygon. The ship loaded with SUVs, paddocks and batteries, the St. Helena, had been at anchor in the port of Cagliari for weeks waiting to unload the great latest generation motor racing circus. Instead, nothing. Behind the front. Immediate, without discussion.
From tomorrow "war"
From tomorrow we will shoot as much as possible on the coast of Teulada and on that of the Salto di Quirra. Half Sardinia, the whole south-eastern coast of the island, will be under the attack of incessant fire exercises for a whole month. The blockade will be, as we can well understand, not only at sea, but also at land and air level. The whole area will be off limits. The Supreme Command of the Italian armed forces, after having given the authorization to transform a simulated theater of war, according to the Cagliari Public Prosecutor's Office full of pollution, into a playground for electric SUV enthusiasts, hastily revoked it.
No to the "roar" of the engines
Without a declared reason, or perhaps for fear of being mocked by the whole world, given that, while war is being practiced everywhere, in Sardinia the electric motors of the Extreme formula should have "roared" inside a military base, moreover, under the responsibility of NATO itself. It is the strangeness of a state that on the one hand would like to dramatically increase military spending and on the other hand transform a polygon dedicated to consuming bombs and missiles, tanks and howitzers, into a happening for special guests in the mood for umbrellas and drinks in between. to the war tracks. All canceled. The world calendars of the extreme formula, the electric one, issued the announcement: the "Extreme E" competition scheduled in Sardinia, in the Capo Teulada military range, for 6 and 7 May is postponed due to the worsening of the war in Ukraine. Therefore, according to the organizers of this Sardinian stage, the umpteenth one after the one last year inside the NATO training base in Sardinia, has been canceled to allow new exercises. In place of electric SUVs, tanks have landed in Sardinia for days.
