Bertazzo under the guidance of head coach Manuel Machata focused more on the construction of the women's national team, which had been missing from international competitions for almost four years, "Last year we bet on some girls who had never seen a track before by bob in their life. I have to say that I was surprisingly amazed by their approach to the bob and some showed they had potential. "
The former top driver of the Italian bobsleigh team then underlined how the arrival of the 2026 Olympic Games in Italy will help to recreate the Italian bobsleigh movement that had fallen drastically in recent years, "The Olympics will allow the FISI and his athletes finally get back a track at home. Furthermore, the Olympic gut will be in Cortina, a track where I took my first career steps. The Monti track is one of the most technical in the world and with the adaptation to the new safety standards will be one of the most spectacular of the circuit. Qunado will surely be completed, I will also grant it myself. "
