Qualifying heats inflame WSK Super Master Series in Lonato

All is set at South Garda Karting for the big spectacle that is getting underway on Sunday for the much awaited second round of WSK Super Master Series after the qualifying heats that took place on Saturday, February 22nd.  Due to the high number of drivers, 362, the fight has been fierce to define the finalists in Lonato but all the main protagonists of the event came to the fore confirming the values shown early into the weekend.

A lot of drivers can aim to the win in OK. Championship leader from Spain  Pedro Hiltbrand (Tony Kart-Vortex-Bridgestone/Tony Kart Racing Team) recovered a lot of ground in the heats, but the young Andrea Kimi Antonelli (KR-Iame/KR Motorsport) has been shining as the British driver Taylor Barnard (KR-Iame/Rosberg Racing Academy) since both won three heats. The other British driver and Hiltbrand’s teammate Joe Turney came also to the fore as poleman  Enzo Trulli (KR-Iame/KR Motorsport), who secured one win.

Brando Badoer leading the provisional classification of OK-Junior.

Brando Badoer (KR-Iame-Vega/KR Motorsport) is leading the OK-Junior classification after being the quickest in qualifying and winning all the four heats he took part in. The Brit Arvid Lindblad has been his main rival so far and won three heats, while their other teammate and current championship leader after the victory in Adria Alfio Andrea Spina is a little bit behind.
