Fabio Pasini (born August 23, 1980 in Gazzaniga ) is an Italian cross-country skier and sports soldier .

life and career

Like his more successful brother Renato, Fabio Pasini specializes in sprint competitions. In his first international competition, the Junior World Championships 2000 in Štrbské Pleso , he reached the finals and finished 27th. Pasini made his first appearance in the cross-country skiing world cup at the sprint world cup in January 2001 in Asiago . While his brother finished seventh, he failed as the 39th of 42 athletes who had started in the qualification. In February 2004, during his third World Cup appearance, he reached the finals in the sprint in Pragelato and was the 28th of his first World Cup points. He was then used more often in the World Cup during the 2004/05 season. Although he mostly did not succeed in qualifying, the Italian Winter Sports Association nominated him for the Nordic World Ski Championships 2005 in Oberstdorf . Surprisingly, he reached the quarter-finals and finished 23rd as the best Italian sprinter. At the end of the season he achieved 22nd place in Reit im Winkl , his best place in the World Cup to date.

In the years that followed, Pasini was rarely used in the World Cup. Only at the beginning of 2008/09 , which started with good results especially for his brother, did he get a new chance to assert himself against the world elite in Davos . While his brother Renato achieved his best result of the season with third place, Fabio Pasini also achieved his best career result with 17th place. A week later in Düsseldorf , he followed his brother's example and took an unexpected third place behind the Norwegians Ola Vigen Hattestad and Tor Arne Hetland . He finished the Tour de Ski 2008/09 in 34th place. At the following World Cup in Vancouver , he and Renato Pasini came in second in the team sprint. At the Nordic World Ski Championships 2009 in Liberec , he achieved 17th place in the sprint. At the end of the season he came in 49th place at the World Cup finals in Falun and reached 36th place in the overall World Cup and 14th place in the Sprint World Cup. He finished the Tour de Ski 2009/10 in 32nd place. In January 2010 he reached second place in the team sprint in Rybinsk together with Loris Frasnelli . At his first Olympic participation in Vancouver in 2010 , he finished 24th in the sprint. In the 2010/11 season he came third in the team sprint with David Hofer in Düsseldorf . He finished the Tour de Ski 2011/12 and the World Cup final of the 2011/12 season in 20th and 33rd place overall. At the beginning of the following season he achieved 46th place at the Nordic Opening in Kuusamo . At the Nordic World Ski Championships 2013 in Val di Fiemme , he was tenth in the sprint. In the 2013/14 season he finished the Nordic Opening in 64th place. At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi , he came in 48th place over 15 km classic.
