The launch of the IAME Series Benelux was a vote in favour of karting in general and for the IAME X30 categories in particular. No fewer than 206 drivers from 15 different countries came to the Karting des Fagnes (Mariembourg) and, despite changeable conditions, they put on a magnificent show in a competition more relevant and more international than ever.  After the rain on Saturday for qualifying practice and the first qualifying heats, the wet track on Sunday morning dried out rapidly with the return of the sun. So to take a leading position at the opening event of the IAME Series Benelux, drivers had to cope with all climatic conditions and quickly adapt their driving style to them. This is what happened in the first of the four championship events in 2018.
