Another day of action on and off the track brought the curtain down on the opening round of the Rotax MAX Challenge Euro Trophy at the Cremona Circuit.

More than 230 drivers, representing over 30 nations, are set to gather at the Cremona Circuit, marking one of the strongest turnouts in recent Rotax MAX Challenge Euro Trophy history.

Saturday at the Rotax MAX Challenge Euro Trophy in Cremona Circuit was entirely dedicated to the qualifying heats, which determined the starting grids for tomorrow’s Prefinals.

After a week of sunshine in Zuera, forecasts suggested a wet finale for the opening round of the 2026 IAME Euro Series. The rain, however, only appeared before the morning warm-up, but the decisive day remained mostly dry under cloudy skies. As the programme moved into the Superheats and Finals, strong winds began sweeping across the circuit, catching several drivers out and adding another challenge to an already tense final day of racing.

The 2026 IAME Euro Series begins this week at the Circuito Internacional de Zuera in Spain. From 11–14 March, drivers will take on the 1699-metre circuit near Zaragoza as the battle for the X30 Euro titles officially gets underway.
