Chichewa: Ndinangoganiza, kuti mwina zimagwira ntchito, kapena ndiononga chilichonse.  Ndinalibe njira ina.  Ndimayenera kuwona, kuti ndidziwe yemwe anali wamphamvu kwambiri, "iye adatero
English: At the 1994 Tour de France, Pantani smashed the record for the fastest ascent of Alpe d'Huez, a near-mythical climb into the heavens, up 21 tight hairpin bends
Chichewa: Pampikisano wa Tour de France wa 1994, Pantani adapanga mbiri yopalasa mothamanga kwambiri pokwera mu Alpe d'Huez, kukwera mmwamba, ngati akudutsa malo okhotakhota ka 21
English: In 1995, he produced another exhilarating ride to break it again. In 1997, he came within four seconds of his own record. Those three rides up Alpe d'Huez have never been battered by any rider in the Tour de France
Chichewa: Mu 1995, adayambitsaso mpikisano wina wosangalatsa.  Mu 1997, adabwera mkati mwa masekondi anayi kuchokera mu mbiri yake.  Anthu atatuwa omwe akukwera mapiri a Alpe d'Huez sanagonjetsedweko ndi aliyense opalasa njinga mu Tour de France
English: The race was in crisis and needed a hero. Enter Pantani, three minutes behind defending champion Ullrich in the yellow jersey
Chichewa: Mpikisanowu unali ovuta kwambiri ndipo unkafunika akatswiri.  Atalowa Pantani, mphindi zitatu kumbuyo kwa katswiri oteteza chikhochi Ullrich yemwe anali mu jeze yachikasu
English: On a cold, wet day in the Alps, Pantani turned the race on its head. Pantani attacked Ullrich on the Galibier, gaining almost three minutes, and flew down the other side of the mountain - taking risk after risk in what must have felt like apocalyptic weather
Chichewa: Patsiku lozizira komanso lamvula kumapiri a Alps, Pantani anausintha mpikisanowo mosayembekezereka.  Pantani adamudutsa Ullrich pa Galibier, atapeza pafupifupi mphindi zitatu, ndikutsikira tsidya lina la phirilo - analolera kuziyika pachiwopsezo  mu nyengo yomwe  inkamveka ngati yoopsa kwambiri.
English: In his wake, Ullrich played it safe, believing Pantani would crack on the final climb. He didn't
Chichewa: Atadzuka, Ullrich adasewera bwino, akukhulupirira kuti Pantani atha kukwera komaliza. Koma iye sanatero
English: It didn't feel like it at the time, but 1998 would prove to be the summit of a career that plummeted unexpectedly 10 months later. Pantani had dominated the 1999 Giro, and looked sure to win with two stages to go, when he was ejected from the race
Chichewa: Sizimamveka ngati chonchi panthawiyo, koma chaka cha 1998 chidakhala gawo lalikulu la ntchito lomwe lidafika mosayembekezereka patatha miyezi 10.  Pantani adalamulira Giro mu 1999, ndipo adawoneka kuti apambana ndi magawo awiri, ndi pomwe adatulutsidwa mumpikisano.
English: Some cyclists who failed tests simply accepted the bans meted out to them as an occupational hazard, served their time, and resumed their career. Others, like Scotland's David Millar, became advocates for clean cycling
Chichewa: Opikisana a njinga ena amene analephera kuyezetsa anavomereza ziletso zomwe adapatsidwa monga chiwopsezo cha ntchito, anatsatira nthaŵi yawo, ndipo anayambiranso ntchito yawo.  Ena, monga David Millar wa ku Scotland, anakhala m'modzi mwa wolimbikitsa za masewero wopalasa njinga
English: But for Pantani - only temporarily stood down from racing for failing a 'health check' - it was the beginning of the end. Those close to him say it was then that he started using cocaine on a regular basis
Chichewa:  Koma kwa Pantani - adangoyima kwakanthawi kuti asapikisane nawo chifukwa chakulephera 'kuwunikitsa mthupi' - ichi chinali chiyambi chamathero.  Oyandikana naye akuti apa ndipamene adayamba kugwiritsa ntchito mankhwala ozunguza bongo pafupipafupi
English: When he had the test for haematocrit he was eventually banned for only 15 days, but it ended up complicating his whole life and he was never able to get over it. He was never the same again
Chichewa: Pamene adayezetsa magazi ake adayimitsidwa masewero kwa masiku 15 okha, koma izi zidasokoneza moyo wake onse ndipo sanathe kuzithetsa. Ndipo Iye sanalinso ngati kale
English: Pantani, while retaining much of his popularity with the public, found himself constantly in dispute with the authorities - cycling's governing bodies and the Italian government - and became increasingly paranoid, convinced he was being unfairly targeted as cycling attempted to clean up its act
Chichewa: Pantani, ngakhale adakali wotchuka kwambiri ndi anthu, adapezeka kuti sakumvana ndi akuluakulu - mabungwe oyendetsa mpikisano wa njinga ndi boma la Italy - ndipo adayamba kunjenjemera, akukhulupirira kuti samaonedwa mwachilungamo ngati  ochita nawo mpikisano wa njinga yemwe akufuna kusintha.
English: He was treated in a drugs and depression clinic, and in October 2003 told his fans to 'forget about Pantani the athlete'
Chichewa: Analandira chithandizo ku chipatala cha mankhwala ozunguza bongo komanso nkhawa, ndipo mu October 2003 anauza omutsatira ake kuti 'aiwale za Pantani wothamanga.
English: While on holiday in Cuba, Pantani scribbled in his passport; "The champion I was exists no more," he wrote
Chichewa: Ali patchuthi ku Cuba, Pantani adalemba pasipoti yake;  Iye analemba kuti: “Katswiri amene ndinali uja kulibenso
English: "He is far from the man that I have become. If my fans still cheer me, it's not through affection, but of need of a personality
Chichewa:  "Ali kutali ndi munthu yemwe ndinakhala pano. Ngati wonditsatira anga amandisangalalirabe, sikuti ndichifukwa cha chikondi, koma chifukwa cha umunthu.
English: "I've been humiliated for nothing. For four years, I've been in every court. Rules, yes - but the same for everyone."
Chichewa:  "Ndachititsidwa manyazi pachabe. Kwa zaka zinayi, ndakhalako m'khoti lililonse. Malamulo, inde - koma chimodzimodzi kwa aliyense."
English: Four months later he was dead, and those words became public knowledge after the passport was found in his hotel room
Chichewa: Patatha miyezi inayi anamwalira, ndipo mawu amenewo anadziwika kwa anthu onse pasipoti yake itapezeka m’chipinda ku nyumba yogona alendo (hotelo)
English: His death was front-page news. At his funeral, his mother Tonina denounced the media who'd turned up, shouting: "You're all to blame for my son's death. What are you doing here?"
Chichewa:  Imfa yake inali nkhani pa tsamba loyamba la nyuzipepala.  Pamaliro ake, amayi ake Tonina adadzudzula atolankhani omwe adabwera, akufuula kuti: "Nonse ndinu olakwa pa imfa ya mwana wanga. Mukuchita chiyani pano?"
English: An initial investigation into Pantani's death ruled he died of an accidental cocaine overdose. But it was not the final word on his demise
Chichewa: Kafukufuku woyamba pa imfa ya Pantani anatsimikizira kuti anafa chifukwa chomwa mankhwala ozunguza bongo mopyola mlingo.  Koma amenewo sanali mawu otsiriza pa imfa yake
English: A second inquiry began in 2016, prompted by Pantani's family's claims that he had been beaten by a group of men, forced to drink cocaine and murdered. It dismissed their theory as "fanciful conjecture"
Chichewa: kafukufuku wachiwiri anayamba mu 2016, potsatira zomwe banja la Pantani linanena kuti iye adamenyedwa ndi gulu la zigawenga, kukakamizidwa kumwa mankhwala ozunguza bongo komanso kuphedwa.  Zidatsutsa umboni omwe unalipo kuti anali "malingaliro ongopeka"
English: But in November 2021, it was sensationally announced that the Italian authorities were opening a third inquiry into events surrounding Pantani - his disqualification from the 1999 Giro, and his death five years later. Its particular focus was whether the mafia were involved. It was sparked by new evidence, uncovered almost by accident
Chichewa:  Koma mu Novembala 2021, zidadziwika kuti akuluakulu aku Italy akutsegula kafukufuku wachitatu pa nkhani yokhudza Pantani - kuchotsedwa kwake ku Giro 1999, ndi imfa yake patatha zaka zisanu.  Cholinga chake chinali chofuna kudziwa ngati ma mafia anali okhudzidwa.  Panadzanso umboni watsopano, ovumbulutsidwa mosayembekezera
English: In 2016, there was a wiretapping by a police investigation completely unrelated to Pantani's case, in which one of the two guys having a conversation mentioned the involvement of the Naples mafia - the Camorra - in Pantani's death
Chichewa: Mu 2016, kafukufuku wa apolisi anali osemphana ndi mlandu wa Pantani, pomwe m'modzi mwa anyamata awiri omwe amakambirana adafotokoza za kukhudzidwa kwa mafia a Naples - Camorra - pa imfa ya Pantani.
English: Rumours of mafia involvement in Pantani's death - supposedly connected to the large amount of money the organized crime syndicate was set to lose on unlicensed gambling markets had he won the 1999 Giro - have persisted for years
Chichewa: Mphekesera zakukhudzidwa kwa magulu awupandu pa imfa ya Pantani - zomwe akuti zikugwirizana ndi ndalama zankhaninkhani zomwe gulu lazigawenga lidayenera kutaya pamisika yochitira njuga yosavomerezeka akadapambana 1999 Giro - zidapitilira kwa zaka zambiri.
English: Now the police had stumbled on evidence that seemed to support the theory. There was also testimony from Fabio Miradossa, a dealer who had supplied Pantani with drugs towards the end of his life and got to know him
Chichewa: Tsopano apolisi anali anadabwa ndi umboni womwe udalipo kuti ukugwirizana ndi nkhaniyo.  Panalinso umboni wochokera kwa Fabio Miradossa, yemwe amagulitsa mankhwala ozunguza bongo (cocaine) kwa Pantani kufikira kumapeto kwa moyo wake pomwe adamuzindikira.
English: He's convinced that Marco did not die of natural causes. Miradossa said Pantani did use cocaine, but he was not such a user that would bring himself to death in a matter of a few days
Chichewa: Adatinyengelera kuti tikhulupilire zoti Marco sanafe imfa yoyenera.  Miradossa adati Pantani adagwiritsa ntchito mankhwala ozunguza bongo (cocaine), koma sanafike poti akhoza kuzipha m'masiku ochepa.
English: When it came to Pantani's failed blood test at the 1999 Giro, a well-known criminal claimed his mafia contacts had foreseen the race's dramatic finale
Chichewa: Pomwe zinafika polephera kuyezetsa magazi kwa Pantani ku Giro mu 1999, chigawenga chodziwika bwino chinati omwe amalumikizana nawo adawoneratu tsogolo la mpikisanowo.
English: If you have money, bet against Pantani because he's not getting to [the finish in] Milan" was their reputed advice
Chichewa: Ngati muli ndi ndalama, betcheranani Pantani chifukwa safika potsiriza [Maliza] nawo ku Milan" unali upangiri wawo wodziwika.
English: Today, after this time, the possibility that the mafia may have altered the Giro d'Italia's results remains an open hypothesis. "We have not been able to close as we would have liked. That is, by being able to exclude it
Chichewa: Lero, pambuyo pa nthawiyi, kuthekera kuti mafia wina akhoza kusintha zotsatira za Giro d'Italia likadali lingaliro.  “Sitinathe kuthana nazo monga momwe timafunira, kuti, tikhoza kuzichotsa
English: The commission had found "several and serious" anomalies around the blood sample taken at the 1999 Giro. They found that the test tube containing Pantani's blood had been marked with his name when, under rules imposed to guarantee riders' anonymity, it should have been only identifiable by a number to a select few officials
Chichewa: Komitiyi idapeza "zolakwika zingapo" zokhudza magazi omwe adatengedwa ku Giro mu 1999.  Iwo anapeza kuti chubu choyezera chomwe chinali ndi magazi a Pantani chinali ndi dzina lake, malinga ndi malamulo operekedwa kuti atsimikizire kuti okwerawo sakudziwika, akuluakulu ochepa ndi omwe akadazindikira izi.
English: The commission had also found that Pantani's blood sample was taken an hour earlier than indicated in a previous court case, opening a window of time in which his sample could have been tampered with
Chichewa: Nthambiyi idapezanso kuti magazi a Pantani adatengedwa patapita maola angapo kusiyana ndi zomwe zidanenedwa m'mbuyo ku bwalo lamilandu zomwe zidabweretsa chikayiko cha nthawi yomwe kuyezaku kudasokonezedwa
English: By correctly placing the time of the sampling from Marco Pantani at 07:46, It is possible to manipulate the test tube," the commission stated
Chichewa: Poyika nthawi moyenera kuchoka kwa Marco Pantani pa 07:46, ndizothekaso kusintha chubu chomwe amagwiritsa ntchito poyezera," nthambiyi idatero.
English: Of course, it could be that Pantani's test result was entirely self-inflicted. That the drug testers caught up with a doper
Chichewa: Inde, zikhoza kutheka kuti zotsatira za kuyezedwa kwa Pantani zinali zodzipangira yekha.  Kuti oyesa mankhwala adapeza mankhwala ozunguza bongo
English: However, some riders of that era were also adept at managing their haematocrit blood tests to stay within the prescribed limits, by dodging drug testers and timing their consumption of EPO
Chichewa: Komabe, wochita mpikisano a njinga ena a nthawi imeneyo analinso aluso poonetsetsa kuti akuyezetsa magazi kwa kuti asadutse malire omwe adayikidwa, popewa mankhwala komanso nthawi yomwe amamwa EPO.
English: Pantani was highly unlikely to be a completely clean rider, but it seems he felt, on the day he was led out of his team hotel and out of the 1999 Giro, that he wasn't cheating any more than his rivals
Chichewa: Pantani sakanatha kukhala wokwera njinga wabwino, koma zikuwoneka kuti adamva, tsiku lomwe adatulutsidwa mu hotelo ya timu yake komanso mu 1999 Giro, kuti samkabera kuposa omwe amapikisana nawo.
English: The perceived injustice of being unable to complete the defense of his title in front of his home fans could have been the start of Pantani's downward spiral into cocaine addiction and isolation
Chichewa: Chisalungamo chomwe chikuwoneka kuti sanathe kukwanitsa kuteteza mbiri yake pamaso pa anthu omutsatira chikanakhala chiyambi cha Pantani pachizolowezi chogwiritsa ntchito mankhwala ozunguza bongo (cocaine) komanso kudzipatula.
English: There are other anomalies around the circumstances of his death that have never been fully explained
Chichewa: Palinso zovuta zina zomwe zikukhudza imfa yake zomweso sizinafotokozedwe bwino
English: But suicide had been ruled out at the time of Pantani's death - the coroner felt that if that had been his aim, Pantani would have used the prescription drugs that he had with him at the time
Chichewa: Koma kudzipha kunali koletsedwa pa nthawi ya imfa ya Pantani - wofufuza milanduyo adawona kuti chikanakhala kuti chinali cholinga chake, Pantani akanagwiritsa ntchito mankhwala omwe anali nawo panthawiyo.
English: Upstairs was all tidy, no mess. But below was chaos. The room was turned upside down. I asked the hotel manager whether there were damages to be paid; he told me, 'No madam, nothing was broken, everything was simply disassembled'. What the hell were they looking for?
Chichewa: Mmwambamu mudali mwa dongosolo, popanda chisokonezo.  Koma m’munsimu munali chipwirikiti.  Chipindacho chidatembenuzika.  Ndinafunsa woyang'anira hotelo ngati panali zowononga zomwe zimayenera kulipidwa;  adandiuza kuti, 'Ayi mayi, palibe chomwe chaonongeka, zonse zidasokonekera'.  Kodi anali kufunafuna chiyani?
English: Perhaps the only certainty is that it, we and perhaps no-one apart from Marco Pantani will ever know for certain what happened inside that hotel room in Rimini. The truth may have died with the man, but the legend lives on
Chichewa: Mwina chilungamo chake ndi chokachi, palibe aliyense mwa ife kupatula Marco Pantani azadziwe chilungamo cha zomwe zidachitika mkati mwa chipinda cha nyumba yogona alendo ku Rimini.  Chowonadi chingakhale chinafa limodzi ndi nzibamboyo, koma zosayiwalika zikupitilirabe
English: He came agonizingly close to doing it this year when he was pipped on the finish line in Bordeaux before a crash on stage eight forced him to abandon with a broken collarbone
Chichewa: Adatsala pang'ono kuchita izi chaka chino pomwe adafika pamzere wotsilizira wa mpikisano ku Bordeaux isanachitike ngozi atafika mu gawo lachisanu ndi chitatu yomwe idamukakamiza kuti asiye atavulala mafupa a phewa lake.
English: All you can do is learn from good things you've done and bad things you've done, and put them into practice for shaping you for where you want to go
Chichewa: Zomwe mungachite ndikuphunzira kuchokera mu zabwino ndi zoyipa zomwe mwachita, ndikumazitsatira kuti zikuongolereni komwe mukufuna kupita.
English: Cavendish is happy with what he has achieved in his career, too. If he does come back, it won't all be for that record
Chichewa: Cavendish nayenso ndi wokondwa ndi zomwe wapeza kudzera mu luso lake.  Ngati angabwerenso, sizikhala chimodzimodzi ngati za mbiri imeneyo
English: It's hard to feel anyone can relate to how you're feeling," he says. "It was important to lay myself so open to show that to anybody who could be affected [in a similar way]
Chichewa: Nkovuta kuwona aliyense akugwirizana ndi mmene mukumvera,” iye anatero. “Kunali kofunika kukhala womasuka kotero kuti ndisonyeze zimenezo kwa aliyense amene angakhudzidwe [m’njira yofanana]
English: Eight years and several victories into his glittering road cycling career, the 2016 Cavendish won four stages at the Tour for Dimension Data, before his mental health - and the team cohesion - began to spiral out of control
Chichewa: kwa zaka 8 ndi mphotho zingapo pa mipikisano yoyendetsa njinga, 2016 Cavendish adapambana magawo anayi pa mpikisano wa Tour for Dimension Data, asadapezeke ndi vuto la  malingaliro angwiro - ndipo mgwirizano wagulu - zidayamba kusokonekera.
English: It got to the point where he wasn't racing. He was just riding a bike. After losing his form, he over-trained and avoided eating correctly. Nothing worked, and eventually the depression affected his family life
Chichewa: Zinafika pa mlingo woti sankathamangaso.  Iye ankangokwera njinga.  Atataya mawonekedwe ake, adaphunziraso kwambiri ndikupewa kudya zakudya mwa ndondomeko.  Palibe chimene chinathandiza, ndipo pamapeto pake kupsinjika maganizo kunakhudza moyo wabanja lake
English: The key point is to show positivity towards where you can go. I never, ever want to deal what I've dealt with again. And I never want anybody to have to deal with these things
Chichewa: Mfundo yofunika kwambiri ndikuwonetsa ubwino kulikonse komwe mungapite.  Sindikufunanso kuchita zomwe ndinazichita kale.  Ndipo sindikufunaso kuti aliyense achite zimenezi
English: It's not about feeling sorry. I don't feel sorry for myself - I'm very fortunate to have the life I have. But more fortunate to have the people around me that I have, and that's knowing I've had that support network, and that support network is a massive crutch and a massive safety blanket I guess
Chichewa: Sikuti ndikumva chisoni.  Sindidzimvera chisoni - ndili ndi mwayi wokhala ndi moyo womwe ndili nawo.  Koma mwayi waukulu ndi wokhala ndi anthu womwe andizungulira, ndikudziwa kuti ndakhala ndi ngodya zondithandizira, ndipo ndikuganiza kuti thandizo limeneli ndiye mkhwelero lalikulu lachitetezo.
English: You never get 'better'," he says. "But if you can see positives and not look back… that's definitely the driving force to live the happiest life you can." Cavendish sought help, and is better for it. Far better
Chichewa: Siungachite 'bwino', " iye watero. "Koma ngati mukuona zabwino ndipo simukuyang'ana m'mbuyo ... chimenecho ndiye chilimbikitso chokhalira ndi moyo wosangalala kwambiri." Cavendish adapempha, ndipo ndi zofunika kwambiri pazimenezo.
English: Cavendish wasn't offered much money to race, but his chance to perform with a team already built to complement his explosive riding style and jovial spirit was the spark
Chichewa: Cavendish sanapatsidwe ndalama zambiri kuti achite nawo mpikisano wothamanga, koma mwayi wake wosewera ndi timu yomwe imagwirizana ndi zochitika zake komanso nsangala zake ndi zomwe zidasintha zinthu
English: He began to win again, culminating in another four Tour de France stage victories in 2021, taking him level with the mighty Merckx
Chichewa: Anayambanso kupambana kachikena, zomwe zidapangitsa kuti afike pachigonjetso china cha Tour de France mu 2021, ndipo izi zidamupangitsa kuti akhale nawo mgulu lodziwika bwino la Merckx.
English: I know I think differently," he says. "But for good and bad, I'm happy I think differently. "If everybody thought the same, I don't think I'd be able to win as many bike races. But you're not really aware of it until you're much older
Chichewa: Ndikudziwa kuti ndimaganiza mosiyana,” iye akutero.  Koma pa zabwino ndi zoyipa, "Ngati aliyense angaganize chimodzimodzi, sindikuganiza kuti ndikanatha kupambana mipikisano yambiri yanjinga. Koma simungadziwe za izi mpaka mutakula.
English: As a kid, I was always on a bike. It gives me an understanding more now seeing my own kids
Chichewa: Ndili mwana, nthawi zonse ndinkakwera njinga.  Zimandipatsa kumvetsetsa kwambiri tsopano kuwona ana anga omwe akuchita choncho
English: He's very similar to how I was. I'm lucky I found racing because I love bikes and I'm fortunate now to have the opportunity to appreciate every pedal revolution I do
Chichewa: Amafanana kwambiri ndi momwe ndinaliri.  Ndine wamwayi kuti ndapeza mpikisano chifukwa ndimakonda njinga ndipo ndili ndi mwayi tsopano woyamikira kupalasa kulikonse komwe ndimachita
