DKM half-time in Ampfing: Filled-up fields of participants on the Schweppermannring.

Frankfurt am Main. Next weekend, the four DMSB kart racing grade series DKM, DJKM, DSKM and DSKC are going to start into the second half of the season in Bavarian Ampfing. More than 170 drivers from all over the world are going to start at the ranked races five and six on the Schweppermannring. The fights for the titles are still open in all classes.

Three weeks after the first German guest performance in Wackersdorf, the DKM is now taking place in Southern Bavaria. The participants from more than 25 nations are going to start into the next ranked races on the 1.063m long track in Ampfing. The classes are currently being led by Harry Thompson (DKM), Kai Askey (DJKM), Jorrit Pex (DSKM) and Emilien Denner (DSKC).

Live action via online stream

All events from Ampfing can be viewed from Saturday morning at 10:10am live via online stream (www.kart-dm.de). A full program awaits drivers, times and viewers. After qualifying, every class drives three heats. The best 34 respective drivers move on to the big final races on Sunday. These are going to be broadcast live from 9:10am on.

Electric karts of the DEKM within framework

The German Electric Kart Championship (DEKM) is going to start into its second racing weekend within the framework of the German Kart Championship. The kick-off in Wackersdorf had to be ended prematurely due to problems with a constructional element. Before the race in Ampfing, everyone worked really hard on the electric karts and the defects have now been repaired. The racing action is now back in focus for the 17 participants.

Championships still open

After the first four ranked races the championships are enjoyably balanced. At the German Kart Championship, Harry Thompson (Ricky Flynn Motorsport) is currently in the lead. The Brit already won three races, but also had to deal with a falling out in Wackersdorf and thereby lost some of his advance. His pursuers are Hugo Sasse (TB Racing Team) from Germany and the reigning junior champion Kas Haverkoort (Zanardi Racing Team). Tijmen van der Helm (KSM Schumacher Racing Team) is currently on fourth place in front of Alexander Taucher (Lanari Racing Team). The German won the second final race in Wackersdorf and counts Ampfing as one of his favorite tracks.

Things went wild so far at the juniors. Four drivers achieved the maximum points for a race victory: Kai Askey (Ricky Flynn Motorsport), Ben Dörr (TB Racing Team), Sebastian Ogaard (TK Racing) and Enzo Trulli (CRG Holland). The championship is accordingly narrow. The first driver Askey and the sixth driver Trulli are less than 20 points apart. Behind the leading Brit, Ben Dörr is the best German junior on second place. After two places on the podium in Wackersdorf, the Hessian now wants to collect major points in Ampfing as well. The competition won’t make this easy though. Behind him, Zak O´sullivan (Ricky Flynn Motorsport), Ogaard and Jak Crawford (Kosmic Kart Department) complete the further ranks.

At the German Shifterkart Championship, Jorrit Pex (CRG Holland) is already known as a studious point collector from the past years. The six-time champion is leading the championship again right now. His advance is not huge though: Fabian Federer (SRP Racing Team) is only six points behind. The South Tyrolean won a race at the kick-off in Italy, but also had one falling out already. Stan Pex (CRG Holland) shared a similar fate – Jorrit’s brother won a race in Wackersdorf and is very close with only 14 points backlog. The two German drivers Alexander Schmitz and Daniel Stell (Mach1 Motorsport) follow on places four and five.

Emilien Denner’s (CRG Holland) situation is a little more comfortable at the DMSB Shifterkart Cup. The driver from France achieved pole position twice so far and won three races. He only had to deal with a setback at the second race in Wackersdorf. Alessio Curto (Valier Motorsport) won that race and took the role of pursuer. Closely behind him follows Tobias Mähler (Kartshop Ampfing) from Munich on third place. The local driver belongs to the top favorites in Ampfing and could achieve the jump to the top. Pawel Myszkier (Mach1 Motorsport) from Poland and Thomas Neumann (SRP Racing Team) complete the top five. The latter Neumann already has a considerable backlog on the leading driver with 60 points though.

The drivers are already going to start into several free trainings on Friday. The first decisions are then going to be made on Saturday at qualifying from 10:15am on. The heats are going to start after the lunch break at 1:05pm. On Sunday, the best respective drivers are going to compete at the final races. All in all, there are going to be ten ranked races between 9:30am and 4:45pm.
