After three days of Free Practice, Timed Qualifying and no fewer than 18 Qualifying Heats, everything at Genk built towards the final day. Six Super Heats set the grids before three Finals brought the event, the 2026 season and the IAME Euro Series’ tenth-anniversary year to a spectacular conclusion.

The 2026 IAME Euro Series begins this week at the Circuito Internacional de Zuera in Spain. From 11–14 March, drivers will take on the 1699-metre circuit near Zaragoza as the battle for the X30 Euro titles officially gets underway.

Qualifying heats on the day of the 2026 IAME Winter Cup at Kartodromo Lucas Guerrero in Valencia saw changing weather play a major role in the day’s action. Winds reaching 90kph, combined with sudden rain showers, created challenging track conditions for all 213 drivers.

After a long winter break, action resumed, and the first qualifying session for the series in 2026 was held at the Kartodromo Internacional Lucas Guerrero in the Valencia region, the annual host of the IAME Winter Cup. After all free practice sessions, the track reached its fastest lap times in timed qualifying, as 213 drivers across Mini, Junior and Senior X30 fought to secure their starting positions.

The major event in the 2025 IAME calendar got off to an intense start at the Lucas Guerrero International Circuit in Chiva, near Valencia. The substantial amount of entrants confirms the appeal of this event, and every available space in the paddock was needed to accommodate the drivers and the numerous teams in the best possible conditions. IAME, together with its partners RGMMC and the Spanish circuit managers, is once again offering a high standard of organisation this year.
