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 four finals held on the Le Mans international circuit gave rise to a very high level of spectacle and to a continuous turnaround, favoured by the quality and homogeneity of IAME Karting engines. The rain having definitively decided to leave the Sarthe region, the Warriors were able to take advantage of dry conditions for this last day dedicated to the pre-finals and finals. The first winners of the IWF22 are known: Gianmatteo Rousseau (PAN) in X30 Mini, Julien Chastenet (FRA) in KA100, Fabrice Frete (FRA) in X30 Master and Markus Kajak (EST) in Z-I.

Great attendance numbers but also high temperatures and a bit of rain in Castelletto marked a spectacular race weekend! A maxed-out Senior category and high numbers of Mini and Junior drivers made for three talent-packed categories!

The IAME Winter Cup has become synonymous with that start of the international season for the top teams and drivers in the IAME X30 circle, and its 7th running did not disappoint! As usual, this year once again the Winter Cup took place in the Kartodromo Internacional Lucas Guerrero in Valencia, Spain, where the weather has historically been sunny and warm, perfect for a February race!

The first race of the 2020 IAME Euro Series had all the ingredients of an exciting racing event, last weekend on the Aunay-Les-Bois Circuit of Essay, where Callum Bradshaw was untouchable in Senior, Santiago Vallve snatched the Junior win in a thriller-Final and Cathal Clark was awarded the post-race victory at the end of tight battle in the Mini class!
