ART Grand Prix È Campione Nella Classe KF2 Della WSK Euro Series Thank you WSK! ART Grand Prix were back on-track last weekend at Castelletto di Branduzzo, as the Italian venue hosted the 2012 WSK Final Cup. The Factory Team planned to take advantage from this event to test some of the upgrades for the next season. ART Grand Prix lined-up in the KF3 and KF2 classes only and completed several material tests without aiming just for a race result. For example, Ben Hanley entered just the KF2 practice in order to test a brand-new chassis/engine combination. All the drivers provided their feedback to complete the scheduled work and a huge amount of data was collected in the process: something that could become key in setting next season's technical base. The Karting Division of ART Grand Prix were also pleased to rejoin forces with Yifan Xia, who came back on-track after a broken collarbone at Zuera kept him out of contention for two months. The Chinese youngster showed to be in excellent physical shape and continued to climb his learning curve in KF3, following the same successful path that brought him positive results at his first season in go-kart racing. The KF2 class confirmed the skills of Charles Leclerc, who clocked the fastest lap time of the qualifying session and stayed constantly on top during the whole weekend. In the final, due to a tough start on the outside of the front row, Charles could not do better than 5th, but his laptimes confirmed his competitive overall pace. The ART Grand Prix Finland team also had a great time at Castelletto as they lined-up in KF3 with 12-year-old Tuomas Haapalainen, Simo Laaksonen, Olli Peltola and newly-added Elias Ilmari Korpivaara. After having been a major star in the Finnish KF3 championship, Haapalainen scored a top-10 result in the WSK Final Cup too, ending up in 9th place. It's been a top result as the team looks forward to retain him for the international 2013 season. Dorian Boccolacci was less lucky as a mechanical issue in one of the heats prevented him from recovering during the final. Leclerc, Sette Camara and Xia will line-up in the upcoming SKUSA round at Las Vegas, while the final race of the year for Ben Hanley will be at the Macau Karting Cup - in the second round of the World KF1 championship, where ART Grand Prix will be powered by TM Racing engines. At Las Vegas and Macau the Factory Team will continue to balance the need to score good overall results and the necessity to test new components to be implemented next year.

  • The Winter Cup of Lonato Is "Sold Out"
    www.southgardakarting.it SO.FIN.PA. srl - South Garda Karting - Via Monti Slossaroli - 25017 Lonato (BS) - Tel.+39 0309919997 - [email protected] SOUTH GARDA KARTING - LONATO (BS - ITALY) THE WINTER CUP OF LONATO IS "SOLD OUT". THE RACE IS IN SCHEDULE FROM 17th TO 19th FEBRUARY 2012 288 ENTRANTS ARE TAKING PART IN THE WINTER CUP. MORE THAN 360 THE DRIVERS WHO HAD APPLIED FOR THE RACE. LOTS OF NOVELTIES IN ALL THE THREE CATEGORIES Lonato (Brescia Italy), 24th January 2012. The 17th edition of the Winter Cup begins with a "sold out": entrants are no longer accepted in any of the three categories. There are 288 drivers ready to get onto the track of the South Garda Karting of Lonato, that is the maximum number allowed: there are 108 drivers in KF2, 108 in KF3 and 72 in KZ2. But the most striking figure is that of the drivers who applied for the race: 360, a veritable record number! So, the first appointment of the season, which traditionally begins with the Winter Cup, seems to have all the potentialities of a great show, especially in the great international events such as the Winter Cup itself. Besides, there are several others novelties among the drivers in the Winter Cup, with some important debuts in new teams. For example, the European KZ1 champion Paolo De Conto and Roberto Toninelli are racing for Birel now, Patrick Hajek (see photo), last year's winner, for Praga; there is also the debut of the new team Art Grand Prix, managed by Nicolas Todt and Armando Filini.

  • Crg-‐Maxter Wins the Wsk Final Cup Thanks to Mirko
    WSK FINAL CUP – ORTONA, 28th-30th OCTOBER 2011 CRG-MAXTER WINS THE WSK FINAL CUP THANKS TO MIRKO TORSELLINI IN KZ2 ON THE INTERNATIONAL CIRCUIT OF ABRUZZO IN ORTONA TORSELLINI IN KZ2, AFTER THE TROUBLES IN THE QUALIFIYNG SESSIONS, MANAGES TO RECOVER AND WIN THE FINAL. GOOD PERFORMANCE FO FORE', TIENE AND LENNOX IN KZ1 TOO. KOZLINSKI RETIRES WHEN FOURTH. GOOD PERFORMANCES ALSO FOR THE CRG AND LH DRIVERS IN THE OTHER CATEGORIES. Ortona (Chieti - Italy). Mirko Torsellini finally grabbed the prestigious result he had so many times missed by the skin of his teeth this year. On a CRG chassis as performing as usual and powered by a Maxter engine excellently set up by the parent company's technicians, the young CRG driver won deservedly the WSK Final Cup title on the International Circuit of Abruzzo in Ortona (Italy). Mirko won the title defeating the new world champion, the Dutch Joey Hanssen, and his most strenuous rival, Marco Zanchetta. TORSELLINI FROM LAST TO FIRST. Torsellini's weekend had not started in the best way possible. He had a technical trouble to one of the wheels at the start of the time trials in Ortona, and this is the reason why his win is even more valuable: in fact, in the race, he managed to recover from the last position in a crescendo of results throughout the three heats and the pre-final, which - by the way - was not run in excellent conditions because of carburetion troubles. So, Mirko was finally able to win his category in the final, giving CRG another important success after the CIK-FIA world championship won by Jonathan Thonon in KZ1 and the WSK Euro Series achieved by Max Verstappen in KF3.
