Since its inception in 2018, the Superkarts! USA Winter Series has been situated in the state of Florida, hosting events at Ocala Gran Prix, AMR Homestead-Miami Motorplex Presented by MG Tires and, most recently, the Orlando Kart Center. Each venue has provided its own uniqueness and history throughout the eight years of the program. Year nine of the SKUSA Winter Series will present a new location, with both events of the 2026 schedule to be held at the Speedsportz Racing Park in New Caney, Texas.

Charlotte – Ligier Junior Formula Championship (Ligier JFC) announced that it will expand to two classes beginning in 2026, accepting both the first-generation Ligier JS F4 car and a modified version of the second-generation Ligier JS F422 car to run side by side. With both cars eligible to race in Ligier JFC, teams or drivers owning the newer Ligier JS F422 will enjoy both increased flexibility and usage opportunities, as they’re able to compete in either Ligier JFC or Formula 4 United States Championship (F4 U.S.) with just a few simple parts changes. Regardless of which car they use, all drivers competing in Ligier JFC will have equal opportunity to stand on the podium and earn the championship-winning scholarship, as both classes will be recognized separately on race podiums and with year-end prizes.

Ahead of the 2026–2028 FIA Karting homologation cycle, the Italian manufacturer has renewed its range of engines for both international and national classes, from MINI to Shifter, including the OK categories.
 

Already on the podium of the FIA Karting World Championship in Kristianstad in OK, Lev Krutolohov repeated this feat at the opening of the WSK Final Cup in Franciacorta. A week later, Energy Corse chassis were once again in the spotlight in a different context, the IAME Warriors Final in Valencia. Thanks to fruitful collaborations with the Xcel Motorsport and Valier Motorsport teams, top-level performances rewarded the work done and the competitiveness of the equipment.

The second event of the WSK Final Cup will take place at the Cremona Circuit next November 4th - 9th with a relevant participation. The leaders of the current standings are Godschalk (MINI U10), Gorun (MINI Gr.3), Scognamiglio (OK), Baglin (OKJ), Marchesi (OK-N), Stasionis (OK-NJ) and Bertuca (KZ2).
