After the positive response of the Rotax MAX Challenge Winter Cup in Campillos earlier in January, attention now turns to the opening round of the 2026 Rotax MAX Challenge Euro Trophy, where a highly competitive field of around 200 drivers is expected to line up for the first major RMC Euro Trophy event of the season.

The first round of the 2026 WSK Euro Series took place from 11th to 14th February at the Leopard Circuit in Viterbo, Italy. Marked by extreme weather conditions, alternating between heavy rain, sunny spells and variable temperatures, this event highlighted the technical versatility of the chassis and the responsiveness of the teams. In a tight field, the Sodi Racing Team and CPB Sport were able to make the most of every opportunity over the weekend, confirming their solid performance level and consistent presence at the forefront of KZ2.

Over 310 drivers are expected at the Leopard Circuit Viterbo for the third round of the series next February 18 - 22.

Mumbai Falcons and PREMA Racing capped a sensational early-season run at Lusail International Circuit by sweeping the UAE4 and Formula Regional Middle East Trophy driver titles at the end of tense and spectacular runs.

The first round of the WSK Euro Series at the Leopard Circuit Viterbo went to Van Werven (KZ2), Firhand (OK), Orlando (OKJ), Miras (U10), Mair (MINI Gr.3), Schniegenberg (OKNJ), and Lamberto Ferrari (OK-N).
