It's hard to see the smiles under the masks, but the Drivers returned to International Competition with great pleasure and excitement for the opening of the FIA Karting European Championship - OK & Junior, organised from 30th July to 2nd August in Spain, on the Zuera circuit. Undoubtedly due to the evolution of the Covid-19 pandemic and the difficulty of moving from one country to another for some of them, the number of entrants announced could not be maintained at the level hoped for by the organisers, with a total of 130 drivers present out of the 183 registered. The young Driver Valerio Rinicella (ITA - Parolin/TM Racing/LeCont) was the fastest in OK-Junior and Taylor Barnard (GBR - KR/IAME/LeCont) achieved a magnificent pole position in OK.

The Rok Cup Superfinal will take place on the South Garda Karting track in Lonato (Italy) from 14^th to 17^th October.

The first 3 drivers of both qualifying sessions are Italian: Minì, Pizzi, Fornaroli and Rosso. A lot of Italy in the two qualifying sessions of the Italian F4 Championship powered by Abarth. Minì (Prema Powerteam) confirms the expectations and marks the best times of both sessions (1'35.121 - 1'34.537), in both followed by Pizzi (Van Amersfoort Racing, 1'35.160 - 1'34.652). In third position in qualifying 1, we find an excellent Fornaroli (Iron Lynx - 1'35.197) and in qualifying 2, Rosso (1'34.752). It is also striking that all the drivers in the lead are Rookies.

Beitske Visser won the final race of Round Eight at Mount Panorama Circuit, Bathurst, to extend her lead at the top of the W Series Esports League.
 

The contenders at FIA Karting European Championship - OK & Junior Competitions are of an excellent level, both in number and quality. 183 Drivers, 88 in OK and 95 in Junior, have registered for the FIA Karting European Championship - OK & Junior. They represent 43 nations and four continents, and hopefully all of them will have the opportunity to travel to Spain for the occasion, as international travel is still subject to some restrictions depending on country of origin.
