What an incredible week it has been here in the Kingdom of Bahrain for the RMC Grand Finals 2025. The atmosphere was absolutely electrifying, filled with anticipation, emotion, and world-class racing. Under the intense Bahraini sun, the heat on track was even higher as the Finals began: from the thrilling battles of the E20 E-Kart classes, to the young talents of Micro MAX and Mini MAX, through the fiercely competitive Junior and Senior MAX categories, all the way to the high-speed action of DD2 and DD2 Masters.

As the track action heated up throughout the day, times dropped as a total of five Non-Qualifying Practice sessions have now concluded for each category. Tomorrow brings a new day, a single Non-Qualifying Practice for each driver before Qualifying Practice sets the grids for the first wheel-to-wheel action of the week. With no delay, Heat 1 for all classes will round out Wednesday's on-track competition, as drivers look forward to the chance to become a Rotax MAX Challenge Grand Finals Champion later in the week.

The 7th edition of the Rotax MAX Challenge International Trophy came to a spectacular conclusion on Saturday, 19th July at Le Mans. Maximum intensity and elevated spectacle accompanied the Final stages of the competition for the 343 participants and all the spectators at this major karting event.

In increasingly hot weather, the 343 drivers competing in the 2025 Rotax MAX Challenge International Trophy contested 36 Qualifying Heats before tackling the Super Heats on Saturday morning to select the finalists in the six categories who will compete on the afternoon of Saturday 19th July at Le Mans.

After familiarising themselves with the Le Mans International Circuit during Free Practice, the 343 participants in the 2025 Rotax Max Challenge International Trophy competed with great energy during Qualifying on Thursday morning on a dry track under partly cloudy skies. Ava Lawrence (UAE) in Micro Max, Emerson Macandrew-Uren (GBR) in Mini Max, Eva Morris (GBR) in Junior Max, Simon Périgny (FRA) in Senior Max, Sem Knopjes (NLD) in DD2 Max and Gabriel Zughella (ARG) in DD2 Max Masters took pole positions in this 7th edition.
