Already on the podium of the FIA Karting World Championship in Kristianstad in OK, Lev Krutolohov repeated this feat at the opening of the WSK Final Cup in Franciacorta. A week later, Energy Corse chassis were once again in the spotlight in a different context, the IAME Warriors Final in Valencia. Thanks to fruitful collaborations with the Xcel Motorsport and Valier Motorsport teams, top-level performances rewarded the work done and the competitiveness of the equipment.
Podium and fastest lap in the OK Final in Franciacorta
The 2025 WSK Final Cup kicked off from 23rd to 26th October in Franciacorta. Right from the Qualifying Heats, Lev Krutolohov (UKR) stood out with some brilliant comebacks and followed up with victory in Super Heat A. Still as fast as ever in the Final, he came back from 5th to 3rd place with the fastest lap to boot. Often among the fastest, Paul Andriotis (SUI) unfortunately fell back due to a retirement in a heat, before climbing five places in the Final to finish 18th.
Several other drivers wearing Energy colours reached the Final on Sunday afternoon in Italy: Finlay Lines (GBR), Felipe Sanchez (BRA) and Matvei Dergunov (KGZ) in OK-Junior, Christos Fokas (GRE) in OK-N, George Quinlan (GBR), Albert Poulsen (DEN) and Mik Klinkers (NED) in Mini Gr.3. The latter took a magnificent 7th place in the Final. Energy Corse clearly remains one of the most successful teams in the paddock at international level.
From pole position to the podium ceremony in the IAME world championship
From 29th October to 1st November, the Energy Corse factory was able to count on the expertise of its satellite teams during the prestigious IAME Warriors Final. In Valencia, many drivers took their places under the large Xcel Motorsport structure, which provided excellent support for its young drivers. George House (GBR) took pole position in X30 Junior in a strong field of 110 drivers! The best result then went to Jarlath Sayer (GBR), who continued to improve. IAME Karting organised a podium for five drivers, and the young Briton was able to celebrate his performance with the 4th place trophy in his hands.
In X30 Mini, Xcel Motorsport placed three Energy chassis in the top 12 in Qualifying. In both the heats and the Super Heat, the team racked up top-five finishes with its promising British drivers: Charles Clough, Colbe Pattison, Efan Owen, Albi-Jay Stubbs and Charlie Page. In the Final, Clough was fighting for the podium before crashing out due to a collision. Relegated to the back of the field following contact on the first lap, Pattison made an incredible comeback from 30th to 5th place (finishing 7th after a spoiler penalty). Page finished 13th after climbing 10 places.
In X30 Senior (120 entries in the category), Daniel Brozovic (GER) confirmed the effectiveness of Italian equipment with all types and brands of tyres. As part of the German Valier Motorsport team, Brozovic finished twice in the top five in the Qualifying Heats. The German driver was aiming for the top 20 in the Final, but fell back due to a penalty.
