2019 was a year of significant anniversaries: the 60th for Birel ART, the 20th for the Rotax Max Challenge Grand Finals and a successful collaboration. An official supplier to the major annual Rotax event for eight years, Birel ART has confirmed its ability to produce quality chassis by supplying the Mini Max categories under the Compkart brand and DD2 under its own colours. A total of 108 drivers were satisfied with their mounts after six days of intense competition at the Italian circuit of Sarno, near Naples. 

The European Championship FIA Karting - Superkart was held in Le Mans on 26th - 27th October 2019 in a new format of three Races during a single Competition. It gave rise to splendid clashes despite conditions that were not always easy. The large entry of 33 Drivers, the low number of retirements for mechanical reasons and above all three different track conditions during the three Races allowed many participants to distinguish themselves in different ways.

Joseph Turney conquers the third place in the first appointment of the WSK Open Cup, where the Tony kart Racing Team is present with a new line-up. At the South Garda Karting in Lonato, the Tony Kart Racing Team drivers are among the protagonists of the exciting first round of the WSK Open Cup. After the free practices raced on wet, the Tony Kart-Vortex duo is at the top also under the sun in the last two days.

From Lonato to Le Mans, the Energy Corse brand has gained victories and podiums in particularly difficult and challenging events. Indeed, both the Rok Cup Superfinal and the IAME International Final each brought together entries of more than 400 drivers! This did not prevent the Energy Corse team from achieving the double in Mini Rok with Alex Powell and Dmitry Matveev in Italy or from taking a magnificent 2nd place in X30 Junior in France with Robert De Haan, also awarded the German Championship in OK-Junior a few days earlier. 

After hard-fought finals at the 1^st round of the WSK Open Cup at Lonato (I), KZ2 victory goes to Palomba (I-Birelart-TM). Barnard (GB-KR-IAME OK), Antonelli (I-KR-IAME OKJ) and Tsolov (BG-Parolin-TM 60 Mini) gain the first round. The closing round is scheduled in Castelletto (I), on November 10^th.
