Another step forward to complete an already enormous growth last season, when he touched the masterpiece of the absolute World Cup. Marco Odermatt has signed a real coup, entering the Red Bull team like other champions (if we think of the recent past, the names of Aksel Lund Svindal and Lindsey Vonn stand out) and colleagues, from Alexis Pinturault to Dominik Paris and Ester Ledecka, but with the leading Austrian giant of energy drinks that really supports many axes of skiing at a logistical level, such as Sofia Goggia and Henrik Kristoffersen. A very important support for the Swiss '97 class, which yesterday greeted and thanked its historical partner Helvetia (also the reference sponsor of the Azzurri Luca De Aliprandini and Marta Bassino), who will remain at his side as federal sponsor. "Of course I will continue to train with the Swiss team - clarified Odermatt, the only standard bearer of the Red Cross team to have this type of agreement with the Austrian brand - The spirit of our team, even off the slopes, is a determining factor for the success and I couldn't do without it. From that point of view nothing will change, but I am happy and excited for this new chapter. I can't wait to fight with a great partner by my side ”.
