For the second event of the calendar, the Champions Of The Future Euro Series will arrive at Kartódromo Internacional Lucas Guerrero from 29th April to 2nd May. Hidden in the hills of Chiva, the 1,428m fast-paced circuit, featuring heavy braking zones, is set to encourage action from the outset. A wide first corner, where lining up on the outside typically proves disadvantageous, will invite close, competitive racing.

Friday marked the first full competitive day of the Rotax MAX Challenge Euro Trophy at the Prokart Raceland Wackersdorf, with eight qualifying sessions crowning the pole sitters across the five categories, followed by 12 heats that officially opened the second phase of the weekend ahead of Sunday’s Finals.

The 2026 Rotax MAX Challenge Euro Trophy moves on to Prokart Raceland Wackersdorf for Round 2 with over 200 drivers.

All five Rotax categories will be on track - Mini MAX, Junior MAX, Senior MAX, DD2 and DD2 Masters - with the Mini MAX class once again awarding a ticket to the Rotax MAX Challenge Grand Finals.

After a tough fight in the final, Lukas Pelizzari has secured his first Junior podium.

The race weekend was only the second round of his very first season at Junior level.
