Saturday had left Aspar with unfinished business. Axel Nocom and Angelina Simons Torres had controlled their respective qualifying programmes without converting them into Final victories, while Mayson Hibbert had completed the opening day unbeaten. Sunday offered one final opportunity to master the unfamiliar circuit and another full day of closely fought racing in the Spanish heat.

The unfamiliar 1,647-metre circuit provided exactly the test expected of it. Drivers faced intense heat, tightly packed racing and drama as the penultimate round of the 2026 Champions of the Future Academy Program International Series began at the Aspar Circuit.

There's been a trend within the Champions Of The Future Academy Program in 2026: sending drivers to new, uncharted terrain to test their ability to learn and adapt, and this weekend continues that trend. This week we visit the third circuit on the calendar to make its debut in the series, heading to Aspar, just a stone's throw from the series-opening circuit, Kartódromo Internacional Lucas Guerrero.

Round 3 of the Champions of the Future Academy Program International Series wrapped up with a statement Sunday at Viterbo, Italy, and it belonged to Niccolò Perico.

Heading into Greece would have felt like stepping into the unknown for much of the Champions of the Future Academy Program field as Round 2 arrived on the calendar. Hidden in the Greek hills near Thessaloniki, Circuit 27 made its debut as host of the second round of the season. The brand-new venue welcomed OK-N Junior, OK-N Senior and Mini 60 competitors across two days of racing, producing new championship leaders, podium finishers and memorable moments throughout the weekend.
