The curtain fell on Arthur Rogeon’s 2020 season in November on the final evening of the world championship in Portugal. In-depth reflections then began to analyse the months that had passed to prepare the best strategy for the driver from the Pays de la Loire region of France to move up to OK, the top category in ‘traditional’ direct drive karting. After talking to several Italian factories, it was decided that the best course for him to follow would be to join CRG, winner of a raft of world titles.

The new WSK Promotion calendar for karting season 2021 with all the categories entitled in each appointment is now available. WSK Promotion devised the new racing calendar for season 2021 making a little change to the dates of the opening of the season and, consequently, a modulation of some rounds due to the present sanitary situation.

The Portuguese Government just announced a hard lockdown for the whole country starting on January 15^th, 2021, for the next two weeks minimum, following the rising Covid-19 cases. BRP-Rotax carefully reviewed all facts about the impact of this new situation.

British F4 race winner Christian Mansell will graduate to the BRDC British Formula 3 Championship this year with Carlin. The Australian, who won a race on his way to seventh in British F4, will stay with the Surrey based team with which he competed last season. Mansell's year in F4 included a victory at Brands Hatch in addition to four additional podium finishes.
 

As everyone knows, nothing went as planned in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the face of unforeseen circumstances, it was necessary to react and adapt. The CIK-FIA quickly took the measure of this new context, but the decisions were taken without hesitation after many exchanges with the karting stakeholders.
