Two Italian teams secured the top step of the podium in the 7th edition of the 24 Hours Karting of Italy: the GAS Racing Team in the PRO category and the Marline Karting team in the SILVER one. Once again the most demanding Endurance race among the international Rental events has recorded an important organizational success, confirming itself among the most prestigious and popular ones. Over 240 drivers divided into 37 teams from all over the world, including China and Ecuador, gave life to a spectacular race, fought for every position on the podium until the last hour of the race itself.

The 4th Rental Kart World Contest by CRG has ended with a great organizational and technical success. An organizational success because everything worked excellently in the tight racing program, from the kart draw-up to the race management with the video controls and the spectacular choreographies of the final day on Sunday. But above all it has been a technical success, as the fleet of 40 CRG Centurion Karts made available to the drivers proved to be high-performance, fun to drive, and very balanced, allowing the best drivers to emerge despite 7 different kart draws between Free Practice, Qualifying, Heats, Super Heat and Finals. The problems that emerged were truly limited and considering that this was CRG’s first commitment to a Sprint format event, everything points to a highly successful future for this type of event.

This weekend, from 20th to 22nd October, the Rental Kart World Contest, the international meeting dedicated (and organized) by CRG to the Rental Kart sector, returns to the 7 Laghi Kart track in Castelletto di Branduzzo, in Italy. After 3 years of post-pandemic stop, this important event which was held in 2018 and 2019 on the Lignano and Pomposa racetracks with the Endurance formula, comes back with a completely new format.

CRG and Adria Raceway have extended their partnership for the organization of one of the most successful Kart Endurance events: the 24 Hours Karting of Italy. After three editions held on the Adria track, which had a great success in terms of organization and participation of teams, also in 2021, the event will be held on the Venetian track on the weekend of 13^th and 14^th of March.

After being crowned Vice Champion last year, Freddie Slater (GBR) was out for a win and nothing else in 2019. Starting from pole position in the Final he gave himself the best possible chance at doing just that, but would have tough competition around him including Brandon Carr (GBR) who would start from second after gaining 20 places in the Pre Final.

This year saw the inception of two new classes at the IAME International Final with Minime (FFSA) / Cadet (MUK) one of them. The youngest of our warriors was made up with a 28 kart field for the final. Like all the finals it treated us with plenty of excitement and a tense last lap which would see Alex O’Grady (IRL) just hold on to take the win for Alfie Slater (GBR).

When British Touring Car driver, Ash Sutton (GBR), appeared on the the entry list in the Super Shifter class many were excited to see what he could do. A champion in the BTCC, Ash has gone on to some magnificent things since leaving Karting, but this was supposed to be a fun experience having not raced a Kart for several years.

The Pro class was a new concept for 2019 and the final alone proved it was a huge success. Featuring a huge number of some of the World’s best all in one grid meant one bad result in the heats didn’t put you completely out of contention. Dean MacDonald (GBR) is someone who can certainly vouch for that, having started his first head facing the wrong way he came back in style to take an impressive win.

The Endurance Karting event organized by CRG is taking place on the Franciacorta circuit (Italy) on Saturday 12^th of October
