The first WSK Euro Series event began by obtaining very good results for our colours. We achieved a deserved podium in KF1 category with Bailly and important success was reached also in KZ1 and KF3 categories.

In KF1, as previously said, our WSK World Series’ champion, Bailly, got an excellent podium at the end of a week-end led by a steady growth. Our two other drivers, Tereza and Groman also behaved positively. Actually at their debut with our colours the two brothers proved to work well together with the team and with the material at their disposal, in particular.  During the qualifying heats Tereza got the best time, this way being part of the Super Pole. Zdenek was involved in a few collisions during the qualifying heats of race-1, however he soon recovered with 3 scores and in the competition held on Sunday, strongly fought for the podium, ending with a sixth position. In KZ1 category, Armand Convers raced amongst the best drivers and obtained good scores in both races. During the Sunday competition he was unfortunately damaged by a light and irritating accident occurred during the first day at the track. Convers collided with an opposing driver and got a hard bop against the steering wheel, suffering from a sprained finger, thus impeding our driver to express himself at his best conditions.In KF2 category, even thug the final result do not put us in the first positions, our technical material and our driver’s is undoubtedly high. The Italian driver won two competitions conquering the second row in the pre-final. In the starting round Ippolito was bumped by an opposing drivers, thus finding himself between the last drivers. It is sure that in the next events we will recover.The European debut of Pablo Maranzana driving for the Kosmic Kart Racing Department was excellent with the soon admission to the Final. On the other side, Marcon was not so lucky, penalized during the fight of the heat, the Italian driver has nevertheless proved to be able to collect points in the next appointments. Both Italian drivers, together with the Malaysian Tan Wei Ron will be at the track already in the next week-end’s event at the 7 Laghi Circuit on the occasion of the WSK Master Series’ competition. Important results were also obtained in KF3 category, with Pedro Hiltbrand always racing at the top and gaining the sixth position, after a good recovery. Hiltbrand, too, will attend the WSK Master on next week-end, beside him in KF3 category we will still see Alice Brasseur and Daim Hishammudin. KF1 category’s drivers won’t attend this event, as provided by the Master Series’ calendar.
