The 2025 FIA Karting European Championship in the KZ and KZ2 categories got off to a chaotic start due to problems with tyre supplies. However, the KR Motorsport team bounced back, first in Sarno with Danilo Albanese returning to the top six, then in Mülsen with a podium finish. The entire team and its drivers are now motivated to shine in October at the upcoming World Championship in Franciacorta.

Already on pole position on Friday, Matteo Spirgel (FRA) in KZ and Jayden Thien (NED) in KZ2 at the Mondokart.com FIA Karting European Championship, as well as Maël Le Marchand (FRA) at the Academy Trophy - Junior, managed to retain their leading positions at the end of Saturday's Qualifying Heats. There were 13 heats in total, which produced some exciting races.

After qualifying practice, the first heats of the weekend in Cremona provided the first direct on-track challenges. The heats will end on Saturday and the final stages will follow on Sunday.
