Second European meeting at Genk for OK and OK-Junior

Second European meeting at Genk for OK and OK-Junior

One month after the opening of the FIA ​​Karting European Championship - OK & Junior, the Genk circuit will host the second of the four European Competitions with the Belgian Kart Grand Prix from 16th to 19th May. At this Competition, some changes in the hierarchy can be expected from Drivers wanting to even the score and not be left behind in the standings before the halfway point in the season.

Dubbed the "Home of Champions", in 2018 the Horensbergdam Circuit in Genk was the scene of a World Competition that was particularly successful in terms of racing and organisation. Justifiably known for its selectivity, the 1360 m of the Belgian track will provide an ideal setting for the 169 Drivers entered for the second Competition of the 2019 FIA ​​Karting European Championship - OK & Junior. In the two categories in the running, some usually frontrunning Drivers did not succeed as much as they wished during the opening Competition on the circuit of Angerville (FRA), while newcomers had the opportunity to put themselves forward. This situation forecasts interesting situations for the Belgian Kart Grand Prix, both rematch and confirmation.

Patterson the new favourite in OK
With a remarkable start to the season, Dexter Patterson (GBR) took the lead over his elders in the Angerville Competition while Juho Valtanen (FIN) showed impressive determination ahead of Gabriele Minì (ITA). Taylor Barnard (GBR) and Dilano Van T'Hoff (NLD) did not find themselves in the European top five by chance.  Others not to be forgotten are Lorenzo Travisanutto (ITA), who made a good recovery in the Final, Pedro Hiltbrand (ESP), who led Qualifying and the heats, and Dino Beganovic (SWE) and Matheus Morgatto (BRA) who were often very fast. Like several other competitors, the reigning European Champion Hannes Janker (DEU) will undoubtedly be keen to forget his French result.

Provisional classification of the FIA ​​Karting European Championship - OK before the second round at Genk:
 1- Dexter Patterson - 35 points
 2- Juho Valtanen - 29 points
 3- Gabriele Minì - 24 points
 4- Taylor Barnard - 19 points
 5- Dilano Van T'Hoff - 18 points

Can Taponen contain his rivals?
The forces involved are not yet fully revealed in the 2019 FIA Karting European Championship - Junior. The surprise victory of Tuuka Taponen (FIN) in Angerville had to provoke some questions for his opponents. Although Thomas Ten Brinke (NLD) is best placed to respond, others have not yet given up their claim to the European title. For the moment, Nikita Bedrin (RUS), Rafael Chaves Camara (BRA), Laurens Van Hoepen (NLD), Arvid Lindblad (GBR) Andrea Kimi Antonelli (ITA), Enzo Trulli (ITA) and Robert De Haan (NLD) are a long way from their goals. They must achieve convincing results in Belgium to not let their chances fly away irretrievably.

Provisional ranking of the FIA ​​Karting European Championship - Junior before the second event at Genk:
 1- Tuuka Taponen - 35 points
 2- Thomas Ten Brinke - 25 points
 3- Ugo Ugochukwu - 18 points
 4- Tymoteusz Kucharczyk - 18 points
 5- Jamie Day - 16 points

Qualifying Practice will take place on Friday 17th May between 16:30 and 17:55. The Qualifying Heats will occupy all day Saturday, 18th May between 9:30 and 18:20 before ending on Sunday, 19th May from 10:30 to 12:25. The OK-Junior Final will then start at 13:50 and the OK Final at 14:55.
