Meet in Laval to wrap up the 2025 NSK Season
This year, Laval will host the closing round of the NSK season. The 3rd event of 2025 is set to take place in Mayenne, from September 18 to 21, on the Laval Beausoleil Louis Paillard International Circuit. Interest in the flagship French series continues to grow, with 236 participants expected, including 90 in the Max Senior category alone – the headline class of the NSK that once again proves its strong appeal among drivers.
A legendary track, Laval enjoyed its golden years of karting in the 1980s and 1990s, hosting several European and World Championships. Since then, the layout has been extended to 1,232 meters and the surface has recently been resurfaced. The professionalism of the ASK Laval team guarantees a warm welcome, while 3MK Events is working hard to ensure the event’s success once again. Live timing from Apex Timing will begin on Friday, and WFR will provide livestream coverage on Facebook and YouTube throughout Saturday and Sunday, allowing the race action to reach a wide audience. Friendliness and community remain priorities for 3MK Events, highlighted by the exceptional prizes to be won in the raffle thanks to partners Quincaillerie Aixoise and DEMT, as well as the unmissable Friday evening cocktail gathering.
With even more championship points at stake, the competition will be intense, especially as the gaps in the standings remain quite narrow. The winners of the team classification will also be revealed at the end of the event. In addition, 8 tickets to the Rotax Max Challenge Grand Finals in Bahrain (November 29 – December 6) will be awarded.
