Good performance but bad luck in Lonato
The Exprit Racing Team back from the Winter Cup is doing well. However, unfortunately, at the South Garda Karting the drivers did not manage to get the results up to their potential.
The 25th Winter Cup just ended at the South Garda Karting proves that Exprit Racing Team were going the right way in these first races of the season, but the team also came home with a bad taste in their mouth for the bad luck that prevented them from collecting the results they deserved. The Exprit Racing Team was centring good performances. The drivers, session after session, became more and more familiar with the Exprit Noesis R powered by Vortex engines, closing a good weekend.
In OKJ, Oscar Wurz from Exprit's team was the author of a good performance ended on Sunday with a 16-position comeback in the Super Heat. The start from the backlines made the weekend of the young Austrian pretty difficult also due to an unlucky withdrawal and a penalty, that anyway did not prevent him from doing well in the Qualifying Heats. Unlucky Qualifying practices also for his brother Charlie Wurz engaged in OK, got on track with wet asphalt. In the two days of Qualifying Heats, Charlie anyway managed to recover 5, then 10 and finally 12 opponents. The Super Heat was not so lucky and a withdrawal in one heat complicated things, but the feeling reached with Exprit's Racing material allowed them to look towards the next races with confidence. Also Kajus Siksnelis did not get the result he hoped for in the Super Heat and, even when he carried out a slightly better qualifying, his weekend ended earlier.
Also the drivers from the Forza Racing team were getting on track at the wheel of the Exprit chassis. Maxwell Dodds, in OKJ, conquered a victory in the Qualifying Heats and closed both the Super Heat and the Final with a wonderful comeback. The Exprit chassis lined up in the OK Final were three: the best one was Rafael Camara, who gained the second position in the Super Heat, after reaching the top ten in the heats, followed by Dilano Van’T Hoff and Gilles Stadsbader.
The Exprit Racing Team is now staying at the South Garda Karting in Lonato where the second round of the WSK Super Master Series is taking place this weekend for the OK and OKJ classes.
