On the Paul Fletcher International circuit, this OK World Championship brought together all the difficulties of kart racing. A large number of participants for a unique event, a unique layout that favoured the regulars, many incidents and retirements and a conclusion with the rain in the Final.
 

Following on from his 5th place in the Champions of the Future Euro Series, Matheus Morgatto put in an exceptional performance at the Val d'Argenton circuit during the second round of the FIA Karting European Championship - OK. The Brazilian driver from the Charles Leclerc Racing team made the most of the potential of his Birel ART / TM Kart in all the conditions of a weekend made particularly difficult by the changeable weather. Delighted to have reached the third step of the Final podium, he also moved up to 4th place in the Championship.

Following on from Birel ART's excellent performances in OK since the start of the season, Matheus Morgatto - CL Racing Team took 5th place in the standings at the end of the first round of the European Championship in Valencia, Spain. Noah Wolfe - VAR by Birel concluded with a strong Final climb of 11 places, while Ean Eyckmans - Birel ART Racing qualified in 5th position for the Final.

Birel ART's improved competitiveness in OK this season was confirmed at the first round of the Champions of the Future - Euro Series in Valencia. Despite changing grip conditions during the Final stages and a number of penalties, the improvement was clear for Ean Eyckmans, 5th in the Final after gaining 11 places, as well as for Noah Wolfe (VAR by Birel) 7th after moving up 14 places and also for Martti Ritonen who was able to gain 19 places.

While Birel ART continues to achieve exceptional results in KZ2, its development in OK met with success at the second round of the WSK Super Master Series in Cremona. Ean Eyckmans literally dominated the premier class of direct-drive karts, taking a significant victory and the lead in the provisional standings.
