The first Champions of the Future Euro Series visit to Arena E Mülsen reached its conclusion on Saturday, as a demanding new circuit, ultra-competitive fields and a series of dramatic twists combined to produce two unforgettable Finals. After Qualifying, Qualifying Heats and Superheats had set the stage, Round 3 victories were ultimately decided by late overtakes, penalties and standout recovery drives in both OK Junior and OK.

Finals day at La Conca brought a complete shift in conditions, with sunshine and a fully dry track replacing the mixed weather seen earlier in the event. After a demanding Friday of qualifying heats, Saturday’s superheats and finals provided a reset, where execution in stable conditions became the deciding factor. With grip returning and margins tightening, the focus turned to delivering across the final races of the opening round.

At La Conca, when it rains, it truly pours. The 183 drivers competing in this weekend’s opening round of the Champions of the Future season experienced exactly that today, as heavy rain created extremely challenging conditions throughout.

In 2026, the series opens at World Circuit La Conca from 1 to 4 March. The 1,250 metre circuit, also known to the paddock as Muro Leccese, sits in the province of Lecce in South Eastern Italy, just a short drive from the Adriatic coast. Known for its stone craftsmanship and deep-rooted history, the surrounding town provides stunning surroundings for a weekend of elite racing with 188 talents.

The winners of the first round at the International Circuit La Conca are El Gahoudi (MINI Gr.3), Burgess (MINI U10), Perico (OK-NJ), Pizzonia (OKJ), Krutogolov (OK) and Orlov (KZ2).
