This week, from Thursday 2 to Sunday 5 July, the second and final round of the FIA European Championship KZ-KZ2 is set to take place. Following the dominant performance delivered in Genk by the CRG Racing Team, which claimed victory in the KZ race with Adrian Malheiro and came very close to a sensational one-two finish with Viktor Gustafsson — who was stopped by contact with his teammate just a few corners from the chequered flag — expectations are very high for the decisive home round. Nothing can be taken for granted, given the extremely competitive level of the opposition, but the pre-race testing sessions have once again confirmed the full potential of the CRG-TM technical package. The team will work with its usual determination to bring the title home.

The third round of four in the FIA Karting European Championship at Mülsen, Germany, has come to an end, and the CRG Racing Team once again confirmed a strong performance level in both categories. Despite a challenging weekend marked by intermittent rain that affected track conditions throughout the event, CRG remained competitive in all situations.

The CRG Racing Team is ready for another challenge in the 2026 karting season: the FIA European Championship KZ–KZ2. The continental series for the Shifter categories will be contested over two rounds, with Round 1 taking place this weekend at the Genk circuit in Belgium. The second and final event will be held in Italy at Sarno on 5 July.

With Round 2 of the FIA Karting European Championship OK-OKJ now completed at the Valencia circuit in Spain, it is time for the first assessment of the season for the CRG Racing Team. On one side, the performances shown both in the FIA events and in the Champions of the Future warm-up races confirmed the strength of the CRG-TM package, as well as the quality of the work carried out by the technical staff and drivers.

The karting season has reached the point where the MINI Team and the CRG Racing Team split their programmes for the Senior categories (OKJ, OK and KZ). After sharing the paddock and competing together in all the early-season WSK events, the MINI Team will now focus on the Italian ACI Karting Championship, which features a five-round calendar.

On Sunday, April 12th, the circuit of Muro Leccese, Italy, will host Round 1 of the FIA European Championship for the OK and OKJ categories. For the CRG Racing Team, this marks the green light for their international campaign under FIA governance, featuring a four-round European Championship and culminating in a one-off World Championship event in November.

On the eve of the first seasonal appointment scheduled for next weekend with Round 1 of the WSK Master at Muro Leccese, the CRG Racing Team has officially announced its drivers for the direct-drive OK and OKJ categories.

The 2026 International Karting season has already begun. Next week, with the first tests at the Muro Leccese track, engines will officially fire up for a new and exciting season of racing. The CRG colours will once again be represented across every category by the CRG Racing Team, the racing squad which — in the company’s 40th anniversary year — aims to further enrich its prestigious palmarès, which currently boasts 27 World titles and 25 FIA World Cups.

Engines are roaring to life at the Franciacorta circuit in Italy for Round 1 of the WSK Final, the international meeting that, as tradition dictates, closes the karting season. There will be three events on the calendar: the opening race this weekend in Franciacorta, followed by Round 2 in Cremona on November 9th, and the final round in Lonato on November 23rd. This Series is particularly important for teams as it serves as a prelude to the 2026 season, following the conclusion of the 2025 racing year, which effectively ended with the FIA World Championship.

The wait is over: from Thursday, October 9th to Sunday, October 12th, the Franciacorta circuit in Italy will host the most important event of the year for the Shifter categories — the FIA World Championship KZ-KZ2 and KZ2 Master. Over 250 drivers and the most prestigious international karting teams will compete for the most coveted title in the gearbox categories.

October will be the month with the KZ2 and KZ categories taking center stage in the international karting scene. Next weekend (with Finals scheduled for Saturday, October 4), the 2nd and final round of the Champions of the Future will take place in Franciacorta, Italy. The following week, from October 8 to 11, on the same track, the most important event of the season for the Shifter categories is scheduled: the FIA World Championship KZ and the World Cup KZ2 and KZ Master. The most prominent drivers and teams in these categories will be based in Italy for 15 days to crown the 2025 World Champions. CRG boasts a prestigious and winning history in these categories, and once again this year, CRG and Kalì Kart chassis are expected to be among the frontrunners.
 

The season’s most important event for the OK and OK Junior categories concluded at the Kristanstad circuit in Sweden. After last year’s OK title in England, the CRG Racing team arrived in Sweden ready to fight for top results again. Despite strong pace throughout the weekend, the decisive step for a podium finish in Sunday’s Finals was just missing.

The biggest event of the season for the OK and OK Junior classes is just around the corner: from Thursday, September 11 to Sunday, September 14, the FIA World Championship will light up the Kristianstad track in Sweden.

On the Kristianstad circuit, the long preparation begins for the FIA World Championship OK and OK Junior, scheduled from September 11 to 14. After the test sessions held in August and last weekend, from today until Sunday the 7th, the 5th round of the Champions of The Future is on the program—a race that will exactly replicate the format of the World Championship.

This past weekend, the FIA European Championship for the OK and OK Junior categories concluded at the Rødby circuit in Denmark, with a splendid victory for the CRG Racing Team. Viktor Gustavsson won the Final in the OK category ahead of his teammate Davide Bottaro, securing a fantastic one-two finish.

This weekend, at the Rødby circuit in Denmark, the final round of the four-race FIA European Championship for OK and OK Junior will take place. The paddock for the direct-drive categories has been in Denmark for over ten days, as all the teams took part in the pre-race COTF last weekend and in collective testing the week before.

Third and final round of the FIA European Championship KZ and KZ2 this week at the German circuit of Mülsen. From Thursday, July 17 to Sunday, July 20, the continental titles for 2025 will be awarded on this technical track in Saxony, even though the sporting value of this season has been heavily compromised by the well-known tire issues.
 

The action on track is back for the OK and OKJ categories of international karting, which will be busy this weekend on the Portimão track in Portugal for the 2nd round of the Champions of the Future. The event will be the prologue to the 2nd Round of the FIA ​​European Championship, scheduled for next week from 1st to 4th May on the same track and will therefore be of significant importance for working on the set-ups in view of the FIA ​​meeting.
 

Round 1 of the FIA European Championship ended with results below expectations and potential for the CRG Racing Team drivers. On the one hand, the rain on Thursday and part of Friday complicated the work plans and, at the same time, a bit of bad luck in some key moments of the weekend did not allow them to fight in the upper parts of the standings in this 1st of the 4 scheduled seasonal appointments.
