Jordon Lennox-Lamb became team manager of a factory team in 2019 when he was only 27 years old, and it wasn't long before his new status became a reality with his first European Championship with Sweden's Viktor Gustavsson in the KZ2 category.

The curtain fell on Arthur Rogeon’s 2020 season in November on the final evening of the world championship in Portugal. In-depth reflections then began to analyse the months that had passed to prepare the best strategy for the driver from the Pays de la Loire region of France to move up to OK, the top category in ‘traditional’ direct drive karting. After talking to several Italian factories, it was decided that the best course for him to follow would be to join CRG, winner of a raft of world titles.

As everyone knows, nothing went as planned in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the face of unforeseen circumstances, it was necessary to react and adapt. The CIK-FIA quickly took the measure of this new context, but the decisions were taken without hesitation after many exchanges with the karting stakeholders.
