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.

The Champions of the Future Academy Program completed its first-ever visit to Greece with another dramatic day of racing at Circuit 27, as Sunday brought fresh winners, last-lap drama and a spectacular conclusion to Round 2.

Round 1 of the 2026 International Series concluded in Valencia with high expectations following Saturday’s intense action and Sunday delivered once again. Under slightly cloudy skies, drivers returned to the track for a decisive final day, where margins were measured in tenths and the opening weekend standings were settled.

At the Italian circuit of Cremona, the second edition of the OK-N World Cup, the first for the OK-N Junior category and the FIA Karting Academy Trophy produced an incredible spectacle, with 34 intense races since the end of Qualifying. Rain on Saturday reshuffled the deck, sometimes changing the rankings and causing a few incidents in the pack. In all categories, many drivers believe they have a chance of victory. At this stage, Italians Manuel Scognamiglio in OK-N and Gioele Girardello in OK-N Junior, as well as Frenchman Maël Le Marchand in Academy - Junior, are leading the intermediate rankings.
