Karting season by WSK is set to restart from Adria on July 5th with a new calendar after the long stop due to the Covid-19 emergency. A new racing format will be proposed in some occasions. The complete calendar will include the final races of WSK Super Master Series and the WSK Euro Series, WSK Open Cup and WSK Final Cup.   

Originally from Belgium, Cash van Belle has lived in Italy for fifteen years for professional karting reasons. Throughout his career, he has had the opportunity to look after great drivers such as Bas Lammers, Jérémy Iglesias, Max Verstappen and George Russell. He is currently the team manager of the official racing department of the IPK factory, which runs the Praga Kart and Formula K brands. Here is his view of the situation in Italy in mid-May 2020.

WSK Promotion is waiting to resume the on-track activity and launched a collaboration with Tatuus for virtual challenges among karting and formula drivers. The first appointment with the WSK E-Sport Championship will be in Adria with F4 cars and Imola with F3 Regional. This new initiative is due to kick off soon.

So after a spectacular start to this, the 15th season of WSK Promotion, we now have temporary pause… A perfect opportunity then to see why the letters WSK are synonymous with world-class motorsport.
We hope this keeps you inspired as we count down the days until we see you back on track!

Among the objectives, recovering the postponed races considering also the chance of two events per weekend and sanitary safety through a protocol to allow the restart of WSK Championships.

The Covid-19 emergency requires a reschedule of the WSK calendar and the two events originally scheduled for May 3rd in La Conca and May 24th in Sarno have been “frozen” and postponed. The promoter is committed to define a new calendar and to have a regular running of the 2020 WSK Championships.

OMP Racing is pleased to announce a partnership with WSK Promotion, leader in the organization and promotion of major karting and racing events.

Far apart, but united during this dark moment in history. To get back and do what we love. To race hard. And do reach our goals. Looking for the next challenge. Waiting...
