After the opening round in Spain on the Valencia track, the FIA ​​European Championship for the OK and OK-Junior categories will stop this week on the Třinec track, in the Czech Republic, for the 2nd of the 4 scheduled appointments.

Facing a new circuit in a major international competition is always a dreaded moment for factories, teams, and drivers. From 3rd to 6th May, the KR brand set out to discover the Steel Ring circuit in Třinec, located in the Czech Republic, to participate in the second round of the Champions of the Future Euro Series.

On the occasion of its second event, the FIA Karting European Championship - OK & Junior will head east to the Czech Republic for its second round and its first taste of the Třinec International Steel Ring. The FIA Karting Academy Trophy will also make its debut on this new circuit from May 19-21.

The weekend that just ended on the Třinec track in the Czech Republic was a very positive one: Gabriel Gomez dominated the scene in the OK category of the 2nd Round of the Champions of the Future, finishing the Final in P2.

Parolin Motorsport put in a solid performance in the second round of the Champions of the Future Euro Series, which was marked by the debut of the Trinec circuit and variable weather conditions. Rene Lammers finished 6th in OK while Zac Drummond finished 7th in OK-Junior and Christian Costoya 9th.

The Tony Kart Racing Team attends the second round of the Champions of the Future Euro Series in the Czech Republic, on the same circuit that will host the FIA Karting European Championship OK-OKJ in less than two weeks.

On the new Trinec circuit in the Czech Republic, the Birel ART / TM Kart showed remarkable competitiveness in a variety of conditions. The second round of the Champions of the Future Euro Series saw Matheus Morgatto’s return to form, who finished 9th in the OK Final, while Noah Wolfe of the Leclerc by Lennox Racing team put in a string of good performances in the OK-Junior class and finished 2nd in the Final.

For the first time, the OK and OK-Junior classes contested a major international event at the new Třinec circuit in the Czech Republic, at the second of five Champions of the Future Euro Series events. In partnership with RGMMC, the Czech Steel Ring Motorsport Pro Každého team welcomed a magnificent field of 168 drivers (95 in OK-Junior and 73 in OK) with dynamism and motivation. Two weeks before the FIA Karting European Championship event, Joe Turney and Oleksandr Bondarev have already made their mark on this difficult circuit by winning on a wet track, upsetting the hierarchy created the day before in the sun!

The second round of the Champions of the Future Euro Series, promoted by RGMMC, takes place this weekend from May 3-6 at the Steel Ring International Circuit in Třinec, Czech Republic.

With the recent death of Angelo Parrilla at the age of 77, the karting community has lost one of the most influential and respected figures in the development of the discipline worldwide.

With more than a quarter of the field, Birel ART was the best represented chassis brand in Spain for the opening of the FIA Karting European Championships - KZ & KZ2. Although the standard of competition in these gearbox categories is constantly increasing, Birel ART's expertise enables the red chassis to perform at the front. In KZ, Matteo Vigano was back on the second step of the podium in the colours of the Leclerc by Lennox Racing team, while Riccardo Longhi regained 10 places to finish 6th in the Final.

The Tony Kart Racer 401 RR sets the fastest time in the qualifyings of the first round of the FIA Karting European Championship 2023 reserved for KZ and KZ2 categories, however the weekend does not end as expected.

After the two victories for the KR direct-drive chassis at the opening of the European Championships in OK and OK-Junior, it is now the turn of the "Shifter" model to win a major FIA Karting competition. On the difficult Zuera circuit, Jamaican Alex Powell dominated the KZ2 class Final from 5th position. Similarly, the competitiveness of the KR Motorsport team was clear in KZ, but events did not go in favour of Italian Paolo Ippolito, the reigning European Champion.

CRG colors experienced a top weekend during the 1^st Round of the FIA ​​European Championship – KZ & KZ2 that took place in Zuera, Spain, from 13^th to 16^th April. In the top KZ class, Jeremy Iglesias and his CRG Road Rebel dominated the Final from the 1^st to the last lap, also setting the fastest lap of the race, ahead of Viganò and Van Walstijn on the finish line.

In Spain, in Zuera, the performance of Sodi chassis was certainly on the agenda for the first FIA Karting KZ / KZ2 meeting of the season, with excellent results in both categories. Leader at the end of the heats, winner of the Super Heat and on the Final podium in KZ after a very competitive race, Senna Van Walstijn took the lead of the European Championship. Thanks to the competitiveness of his teammate Emilien Denner, Sodikart is also leading the team ranking.

You had to have strong nerves, as well as great speed, to get good results in Zuera. The two heroes of this first round of the FIA Karting European Championship - KZ & KZ2 supported by Mondokart.com did not lack any. The Jamaican Alex Powell saw off the challenge of his KZ2 protagonists to claim his first victory in the category. Frenchman Jérémy Iglesias patiently built up to his success in KZ thanks to determination and a flawless strategy.

The FIA Karting season continues in Spain as the first round of the FIA Karting European Championship - KZ & KZ2 is set to take place from 14th to 16th April 2023 at the Circuito Internacional Zuera near Zaragoza in central Spain. 123 names are on the entry list representing 24 nations, most of them European.
