The Mondokart.com FIA Karting European Championship for the OK and OK-Junior categories, and the FIA Karting Academy Trophy-Senior, are coming to an end, with the outcome to be decided in Denmark on the 1,245-metre Rødby circuit. From 31st July to 3rd August, 245 drivers are registered for this eagerly awaited event.

In Germany, the suspense lasted until the very end for the Mondokart.com FIA Karting European Championship in KZ. Mattéo Spirgel's victory in the Final, combined with Pedro Hiltbrand's retirement, tipped the balance in favour of the French driver at the expense of the Spaniard. In KZ2, Maksim Orlov finished his Championship with a flawless performance: three Finals, three victories! His victory is undisputed. In the FIA Karting Academy Trophy - Junior, thanks to his success in the Final at Mülsen, Finland's Oiva Vettenranta drew level on points with France's Maël Le Marchand, the winner at Valencia. Everything will be decided at the final competition in Italy in September.

Birelart KZ driver Pedro Hiltbrand came very close to winning the FIA Karting European Championship at the third and final round in Mülsen, Germany, before an engine problem ended his hopes. In KZ2, young Noah Wolfe (VAR by Birelart) showed great determination, finishing just off the podium.

Already on pole position on Friday, Matteo Spirgel (FRA) in KZ and Jayden Thien (NED) in KZ2 at the Mondokart.com FIA Karting European Championship, as well as Maël Le Marchand (FRA) at the Academy Trophy - Junior, managed to retain their leading positions at the end of Saturday's Qualifying Heats. There were 13 heats in total, which produced some exciting races.

Fast and popular with the drivers, the Mülsen circuit in Germany hosted some highly competitive Qualifying sessions on its debut in an international FIA Karting event. For Dutchman Jayden Thien, competing in the Mondokart.com European Championship - KZ2, and Frenchman Maël Le Marchand in the Academy-Junior Trophy, it was also a first pole position. Mattéo Spirgel, also from France, repeated his performance from the previous event in Italy, once again proving himself the fastest in KZ.
