Biography
He competed for Italy in the 1936 Summer Olympics held in Berlin, Germany in the 4 x 100 metre relay where he won the silver medal with his team mates Orazio Mariani, Gianni Caldana and Elio Ragni. He participated in 1934 European Athletics Championships – Men's 200 metres and 1938 European Athletics Championships – Men's 4 × 100 metres relay.[2] Gonnelli was looking forward to competing in the 1940 Summer Olympics in Tokyo but the advent of World War II meant the cancellation of the Games and he served 3 years in the army instead.[3] He died in Longmeadow, Massachusetts, United States.
