The Franciacorta Karting Track is gearing up to host the first round of the WSK Final Cup with 320 entered drivers.

Few drivers can claim to have done what Zyed Dieudonne achieved on Sunday: going from 30th place to victory. The young karting talent pulled off the remarkable feat at Genk during the IAME Series Benelux. At just nine years old, the Verviers-based driver won the fifth round of the championship in the Mini Rookie class – in his very first race with a brand-new chassis.

Setting the fastest time in qualifying was only the beginning of what would turn into an exceptional weekend. On Sunday, young karting talent Milo Cornil won the fifth round of the IAME Series Benelux. At the Genk circuit, the eleven-year-old from Vaudignies was the standout driver in the Mini class, making it his second victory of the season. “When I crossed the finish line, I was really happy to have scored points for the championship and to be on the podium,” says Milo.

He had dominated every session of the weekend, so his victory in Saturday’s final almost seemed inevitable. At the Genk circuit, the 13-year-old from Givry was the strongest driver throughout the fifth round of the IAME Series Benelux. He secured his first win of the season in IAME X30 Junior.

Four-time Formula One World Champion Max Verstappen, who recently extended his contract with Oracle Red Bull Racing until the end of 2030, will return to his racing roots on September 16.

The challenge is set to become the world’s biggest go-kart race and will be broadcast live around the world on Disney+ and the ESPN App. Here is all you need to know:
