In FIA Karting, Rotax, Rok or IAME, and in numerous countries around the globe, podium finishes are on the cards for Energy Corse. In OK, Tomass Stolcermanis is racking up a string of brilliant results and is currently 4th in the FIA Karting European Championship, just a few points behind 3rd place. In Mini, Niccolo Perico leads the Italian Championship after his victory at La Conca! On the other side of the world, podium finishes were also on offer in the Australian Championship, as well as in the Rotax Challenge in the USA.

After last year's success, the Ladies Cup is back in 2020. It will take place from 4 to 6 September on the amazing and rapid track from Varennes to Allier (France), as part of the Iame Series France. Here is, finally, a real girls' meeting, a real race, a real challenge, a high-performance kart ... The LADIES CUP will determine the best of the ladies. The rules will be the classic X30 Senior sporting and technical rules (identical in all countries of the world - Komet K2H tires) and the minimum age to participate is 14 years in the year. The number of participants is limited to 36.

In these difficult times, the prognosis for the sporting schedule is uncertain. One thing is certain, the Arena 45 Grand Prix will take place at Valence, even if the date has to be postponed to better times. In the face of the changing health situation, opening entries is no longer a priority. Arena 45 will announce a new date as soon as the situation becomes clearer. As to whether the Arena 45 Grand Prix can take place as planned from 5th to 9th August 2020, it is too early to say. In any case, the flagship event at Valence is not in question. If the date has to be postponed, it will be postponed and the organisers will follow the decisions taken by the authorities.
