October will be the month with the KZ2 and KZ categories taking center stage in the international karting scene. Next weekend (with Finals scheduled for Saturday, October 4), the 2nd and final round of the Champions of the Future will take place in Franciacorta, Italy. The following week, from October 8 to 11, on the same track, the most important event of the season for the Shifter categories is scheduled: the FIA World Championship KZ and the World Cup KZ2 and KZ Master. The most prominent drivers and teams in these categories will be based in Italy for 15 days to crown the 2025 World Champions. CRG boasts a prestigious and winning history in these categories, and once again this year, CRG and Kalì Kart chassis are expected to be among the frontrunners.
 

After the announcement of the multi-year partnership between Kalì Kart and the new title sponsor Lenovo, the management of the historic CRG brand is working to define the 2026 drivers’ line-up of the team, which will be dedicated to the under-16 junior categories: Mini, OKNJ, OKJ, and OK. The racing program will include participation in all FIA Karting events (European Championship and World Championship for OK and OKJ classes), as well as a structure that will be active in Italy for the Mini U10 / Gr3 and OKN Junior categories.

Lenovo and Gruppo CRG today announced a multi-year partnership that will see the global technology powerhouse become the Group’s Technology Partner, expanding the organization’s technical capabilities through advanced telemetry and data analytics, while also optimizing kart production at headquarters. As part of the agreement, Lenovo will also become Title Sponsor of the newly renamed Lenovo Kalì Kart Team, dedicated to developing the most promising young drivers under the age of 16.

Great weekend for Kalì Kart colours at the 36th Margutti Trophy that took place this weekend in Lonato. In the OK Junior category, Ilia Berezkin dominated the OK Junior by winning all 3 qualifying heats, the Prefinal and the Final, always with an impressive race pace.

In the last few days, Kalì Kart has confirmed the extension of the agreement with the three Zvarich brothers also for the 2025 season. Max, Marat and Mark, therefore, after the first contact with karting in Italy in the final part of the last season, have confirmed their commitment with the Factory team of the CRG Group, with the aim of capitalizing on all the experience gained in the Iame and Rotax Championships in Asia and, above all, the positive experience gained in the end-of-season events last year in Italy, when they made their debut in the WSK meetings and in the Italian Karting Championship.
