The countdown is over as the 2026 Rotax MAX Challenge Euro Trophy prepares to launch its new season at the Cremona Circuit, where 256 drivers are currently entered for the opening event scheduled from March 11 to March 15.

Following the market introduction of the Rotax E10, BRP-Rotax is bringing electric karting into competitive RMC (Rotax MAX Challenge) racing. The E10 Mini will now feature as a dedicated category in selected Rotax MAX Challenge championships and race events worldwide, where drivers can qualify for the RMC Grand Finals. The E10 category will debut on the international stage this year in Portimão, Portugal.

BRP-Rotax is pleased to announce the introduction of a brand new event on the Rotax racing calendar in the Nordic region – the RMC Viking Trophy. Denmark’s Vojens Motorsport Arena is rekindling the spirit of Scandinavian competition, inviting its neighbouring nations to take up the challenge against an international driver line-up from April 1-5.

The Rotax MAX Challenge International Trophy Asia 2026 was successfully contested on January 20-25 in Macau, where more than 20 nations were represented throughout Australasia, Europe and other regions. In its premier appearance, the demanding 1,203-metre Coloane Kart Circuit provided the ideal venue for the high-profile championship, resulting in the most competitive edition of the event to date. New winners were crowned in seven categories from as many countries, and the first RMC Grand Finals 2026 tickets were awarded. Macau delivered both a historic and memorable week!

Rotax Karting is excited to announce a new chapter in its U.S. operations with the appointment of KSG as a key business partner. KSG will take over the responsibilities of both existing distributors – RTX and J3 –, bringing economic leverage, a deep passion for motorsport, and a unified network to elevate the Rotax karting business in the U.S. to an even higher level.
