The Italian round of the FIA Karting European Championship - KZ & KZ2 in Sarno, Italy, sponsored by Mondokart.com, took place in very hot conditions that put a great deal of stress on drivers, machines and tyres. The first selection has been made and will be completed on Sunday morning during the Super Heats. On Saturday evening, the Qualifying Heats delivered their verdict with Danilo Albanese (ITA) still leading in KZ and Cristian Bertuca (ITA) the new leader in KZ2.
