Time to get back on track for the international direct drive categories OK and OK Junior for the 2nd Round of the Champions of The Future scheduled this week on the Val D'Argenton track, in France. Exceptionally, the Finals will take place on Saturday and not on Sunday, so Qualifying Practices and the first Heats are already scheduled for Thursday.

The Kalì Kart Racing Team is pleased to welcome Sam Woolley who will join the team for the OK Junior category. The English driver was born in Urmstom, Manchester in September 2010 and began racing go-karts at the age of 8 in the Mini categories, achieving many notable results at national level. His first international experiences were made in the X30 Junior category in which, at the beginning of this season, he won the Hivern Cup Spain and obtained P2 in the Winter Cup of Valencia.

The 1st of the four rounds of the 2024 FIA European Championship for the OK and OK-Junior categories ended on the Valencia circuit in Spain. The official Kalì Kart team took part in this important international meeting with two drivers in the OK category: Stefano Pedani and Peter Stiller.

After 3 days of testing that took place on the Valencia circuit last week, from today onward, the drivers of the direct drive OK and OK-Junior categories, will be busy on the same Spanish track with the 1st round of the Champions of The Future, the karting series organized by RGMMC as training in view of the FIA ​​Karting Championships.

With the first three rounds of the WSK Super Master Series held in Lonato, Cremona, and Franciacorta officially closed, it is time for CRG to take stock of this season's start. The 2024 chassis gave the feedback we expected and the inclusion of new drivers was also positive.

The first race of the season for the Tony Kart Racing Team was at South Garda Karting for the first round of the WSK Super Master Series, with their official driver Sebastiano Pavan achieving the podium finish in the OK category. Furthermore, first place was also achieved for the Rookie chassis in the MINI Gr.3 U10 class.

The WSK Master Series is a classic early-season event and will end in the short period between the end of January and the beginning of March. For the international karting drivers and teams, these ones will be important races to prepare for the FIA events season and to evaluate the 2024 materials through direct comparison on the track.

With 33 confirmed drivers, the official CRG Team promises to be one of the biggest and most competitive for the 2024 international karting season. The CRG Racing Team, which as announced last December, will be coordinated from a technical and organizational point of view by Natalia Balbo and Brandon Nilsson, will be able to count on a mix of experienced drivers and ambitious young ones in all categories.

United Arab Emirates racer Keanu Al Azhari will stay with MP Motorsport for a second stab at the Spanish Formula 4 Championship. In preparation, the 16-year-old will also compete in his local UAE F4 winter series.

The informal chat with CRG owner Giancarlo Tinini is a classic end-of-year event, a meeting in which it is time to take stock of the season that has just ended, looking at the year that is about to begin by talking about objectives, both sporting and commercial. This is also a very interesting chance for dealing with general topics concerning karting, thanks to authoritative opinions and points of view, consolidated in over 40 years of experience in high-level karting.

The chain of young drivers coming from the CRG training camp who are entering motorsport is enriched with a new name, the one of Mattia Colnaghi. After many big names of the past, including Hamilton, Verstappen and Hulkenberg, as well Gabriel Bortoleto, the new FIA F3 Champion, who recently joined the McLaren Academy or Dennis Hauger, protagonist of the FIA F2 Championship, a new potential protagonist of tomorrow’s motor racing who comes from what can be considered in all respects a full-fledged school for young karting drivers.

At the FIA Karting World Championship in Franciacorta, Italy, the Exprit Noesis RR chassis once again wins the title in the "Junior" category, duplicating the successes achieved in 2017 and 2021.

The most important event of the season for the international direct drive classes (OK Junior and OK Senior) saw the CRG chassis and drivers as great protagonists. During Qualifying Practices in the OK top class Mark Dubnitski took the Pole Position and in the top 6 general classifications, 4 out of 6, were CRG drivers with the 3rd place of Gabriel Gomez, the 5th position of Louis Iglesias and the 5th one of Olin Galli.

The hilly area of ​​Franciacorta, a land of vineyards between Lake Iseo and Brescia in Italy, will be the center of International Karting next weekend, from 5th to 8th October, hosting the FIA ​​Karting World Championship of the OK and OK-Junior categories.

At the start of the Final, Maksim Orlov was one of the favourites in the KZ2 World Cup, as was Daniel Bray in the KZ2 Masters International Super Cup. Unfortunately, they were both eliminated at the start of the race. Genis Civico finished 9th in KZ2, while Riccardo Nalon finished 4th in KZ2 Masters. In the World KZ Championship, Francesco Celenta and Lorenzo Travisanutto made a superb comeback to finish 7th and 8th.

It will be a very "hot" weekend the one we are about to experience on the Cremona circuit and not only due to the high atmospheric temperatures. In fact, the Italian track will host the last Round of the FIA ​​European Championship for the OK and OK-Junior categories, with both titles to be awarded. At CRG there is particular interest in the major category, the OK one, where the Brazilian Gabriel Gomez is currently in P2 in the general standings with 202 points, just 6 points behind the leader Rene Lammers. The battle for victory, mathematically also includes Alex Powell, who is actually in P3 in the standings with 165 points, but in all likelihood, it will be a two-way challenge, which will already start from the qualifying stages with the assignment of the first scoring.

The weekend that just ended on the Rødby track in Denmark, where the 3rd and penultimate Round of the FIA ​​European Championship took place for the OK Junior and OK categories, was an intense one full of emotions. In the top class, after the success in the Czech Republic, Gabriel Gomez got there as provisional leader of the standings and CRG in P1 in the team standings, confirming a solid and constant path from the point of view of performance in such a long and articulated Championship on very different tracks.

The 3rd Round of the Champions of the Future on the Rødby track (Denmark), the Series in which the drivers and the teams work on the basis of the FIA ​​European Championship races, was a very productive weekend for the CRG Racing Team. From the point of view of the sporting result, a new victory for Gabriel Gomez in the OK category shines: the CRG KT2 chassis has once again proved to be versatile and fast in all track conditions. The Brazilian driver closed the Qualifying phase in P2, then won the Super Heat and conquered the Final with a good margin over the 2nd classified, demonstrating a truly impressive race pace.

Showdown in Třinec for CRG in the second Round of the FIA ​​European Championship - OK & Junior, where Gabriel Gomez in the OK category secured the Pole Position in Qualifying Practices, won all the Heats and conquered the Final, setting the fastest lap of the race, too. A domination which, in the middle of the Championship, is worth the leadership of the general classification for the Brazilian driver and the provisional 1st place among the teams for the CRG Racing Team.

After the opening round in Spain on the Valencia track, the FIA ​​European Championship for the OK and OK-Junior categories will stop this week on the Třinec track, in the Czech Republic, for the 2nd of the 4 scheduled appointments.

The weekend that just ended on the Třinec track in the Czech Republic was a very positive one: Gabriel Gomez dominated the scene in the OK category of the 2nd Round of the Champions of the Future, finishing the Final in P2.
