It's race week and the IAME warriors are kicking off the 2025 season with the IAME Winter Cup at the Kartodromo Internacional Lucas Guerrero in Chiva close to Valencia, Spain. The IAME Winter Cup will be held from 12-16th of February 2025 for the classes: Mini, Junior, and Senior. The official sessions start on Friday with the Timed Qualifying and First Qualifying Heats, continuing with the rest of the Qualifying Heats on Saturday. The Superheats, Consolation race, and the finals will take place on Sunday!

The stage is set at the Cremona Circuit for the highly anticipated first round of the Rotax MAX Challenge Winter Series. Approximately 200 drivers will battle it out on the Lombardy-based track, competing across categories including Mini MAX, Junior MAX, Senior MAX, DD2, and DD2 Masters. The Senior MAX remains the most competitive and populated category with 86 registered drivers, followed by 44 in Junior MAX, 34 in Mini MAX, and 30 across DD2 and DD2 Masters.

Dayton Coulthard is joining Douglas Motorsport as a driver for 2025, and will compete in the GB4 Championship.

In this milestone year, no fewer than four drivers on the Formula 1 grid began their careers with the Dutch team. This impressive achievement highlights Van Amersfoort Racing’s (VAR) significant impact on international motorsport.

Back in 1978, The Blues Brothers took the world by storm with a skit on Saturday Night Live. A movie followed in 1980, then a sequel and some albums as Dan Aykroyd (Elwood) and John Belushi (Joliet Jake) rose to fame and stardom. The back story is that Jake and Elwood were raised in a Catholic orphanage in Rock Island and learned the blues in the basement from the janitor, Curtis, who wore sunglasses, a thin black tie, and porkpie hat. The brothers went on “a mission from God” to raise money (and create mayhem) so the orphanage could pay its taxes.
