As everyone knows, nothing went as planned in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the face of unforeseen circumstances, it was necessary to react and adapt. The CIK-FIA quickly took the measure of this new context, but the decisions were taken without hesitation after many exchanges with the karting stakeholders.

2020 has been a complex sporting year to manage because of the pandemic. However, Suleiman Zanfari put in some interesting performances in his first F4 season in Spain. He intends to continue his experience and obtain good results in this Championship next year with the renowned MP Motorsport team.

PREMA Powerteam is proud to announce that Swedish racer Dino Beganovic will step up to the Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine in 2021.  The 16-year-old driver joined the team for his rookie campaign in the 2020 Italian Formula 4 Championship, showing speed straight away. Over the season, he impressed for the progress he made, scoring two pole positions and claiming his maiden win at Imola. 

The COVID-19 pandemic has made 2020 a particularly difficult year for the entire world, including the motorsport family. Nevertheless, the FIA Karting Championships were able to take place with good sporting representativeness in compliance with health protocols.

It is with great excitement that we announce a new dawn for karting - Karting SA  (sanctioned by World of Motorsport South Africa - WOMZA). For far too long, the Rotax Max Challenge Series has been subjected to unpopular regulations and changes by MSA and its appointees which often are not even involved in karting at all. We are therefore creating a dedicated karting regulating body that listens to karters, clubs, promoters, circuits, etc. when making decisions.
