The weather continued to be fine in Limburg on Saturday during the Qualifying Heats. The thermometer reached 24° in the afternoon, while the intensity followed the same upward curve throughout the 18 races of the Belgian event's programme.

The first round of the FIA Karting European Championship - KZ & KZ2, as well as the FIA Karting Academy Trophy, benefited from ideal conditions during Qualifying Practice on the afternoon of Friday 13th May in Belgium. Sunny skies and a pleasant temperature close to 20° made for a high quality and very sporting confrontation on the Genk circuit. David Trefilov (DEU) in KZ2, Guillaume Bouzar (LUX) in Academy and Emilien Denner (FRA) in KZ managed their sessions perfectly to take the three pole positions of the day.
