He wore the national team shirt several times, winning the silver medal in the Team Relay at both the World Championships and the European Championships. In the individual event he finished fourth after a race always conducted in the leading group.
Marco is a determined, gritty and never tame athlete. In the past season, in preparation for the most important appointments, he sought maximum concentration by staying in his camper between Macugnaga and Formazza in contact with nature and the serenity of his mountains. In the middle of the woods he improved his technique and driving, progress that allowed him to achieve important results.
I am very happy to wear the KTM PROTEK ELETTROSYSTEM team jersey for 2023. A new experience in a new category is about to begin. The Under 23 is certainly a qualitative leap, I will find very aggressive and combative athletes, many with more experience. It won't be an easy transition, I like challenges and they give me motivation to improve. I will do my best to bring a lot of satisfaction to the team – Marco Betteo.
Patron Fabrizio Pirovano said he was enthusiastic about the young Italian junior champion athlete.
"We are very pleased with Marco's arrival. We had been following him for some years and we noticed his technical and athletic qualities. In the past season he has shown a remarkable improvement, especially in determination and character. In this 2023, even if he will change category and will be very torn, he will certainly give us many emotions"
