One of the best-known faces of RTS will leave the house in 2026 where he presented all the television news and launched various magazine shows, before heading the Sports editorial team.
He is an emblematic figure of French-speaking screens who announces his retirement scheduled for the first half of 2026. After 37 years of a rich career at RTS including the presentation of various TV news shows and the production of several magazines, Massimo Lorenzi will leave his position at the head of the Sports editorial team following the next Winter Olympic Games. He will have been at work for more than half of the years of existence of French-speaking television, which has just celebrated its 70th anniversary.
“I am incredibly lucky to have been able to follow such an exciting and diverse journey. I will leave totally convinced by the need to preserve a quality and varied public service in Switzerland. The RTS and the SSR constitute an essential glue for this country“, soulful Massimo Lorenzi.
The announcement of this departure, made this Tuesday to journalists from the Sports editorial team, will be followed in the spring by the launch of the recruitment process for the person who will succeed him and whose name should be known in the summer of 2025. The editor in outgoing head will ensure a transition period with the journalist who will take over at RTS after the extinction of the Olympic flame in Milano Cortina.
