The CRG Racing Team and Ethan Jeff-Hall are the 2024 World Champions of the OK category, the top direct drive class. The event, the most prestigious and important of the international season, was held in England at the PF International Circuit from September 12th to 15th. This circuit has always been a battlefield for English drivers and this year too was no exception, with an all-English podium in OK and an English winner in Junior. For the CRG colours, this prestigious success enriches our wall of fame in FIA events, bringing the world titles won to 25.
 

With the first three rounds of the WSK Super Master Series held in Lonato, Cremona, and Franciacorta officially closed, it is time for CRG to take stock of this season's start. The 2024 chassis gave the feedback we expected and the inclusion of new drivers was also positive.

With 33 confirmed drivers, the official CRG Team promises to be one of the biggest and most competitive for the 2024 international karting season. The CRG Racing Team, which as announced last December, will be coordinated from a technical and organizational point of view by Natalia Balbo and Brandon Nilsson, will be able to count on a mix of experienced drivers and ambitious young ones in all categories.

The informal chat with CRG owner Giancarlo Tinini is a classic end-of-year event, a meeting in which it is time to take stock of the season that has just ended, looking at the year that is about to begin by talking about objectives, both sporting and commercial. This is also a very interesting chance for dealing with general topics concerning karting, thanks to authoritative opinions and points of view, consolidated in over 40 years of experience in high-level karting.

Change at the top within the CRG racing department, who greets and thanks Team Manager Andrea Todisco, who will face new professional challenges, to welcome the new duo made up of Brandon Nilsson and Natalia Balbo to the helm of the structure.

Everything is ready on the Wackersdorf track in Germany for the most important weekend of the season for the Shifter categories: the FIA Karting World Championship – KZ, the KZ2 World Cup, as well as the Super Cup - KZ2 Masters, scheduled from 7th to 10th September. Three categories, 245 drivers for 36 different nationalities and all the most important manufacturers and teams will be protagonists of the event which can be worth a whole season for the value of the titles up for grabs.

The victories in both Finals of the two European Championship KZ Rounds (in Spain with Jeremy Iglesias and in Italy with Viktor Gustafsson), as well as the one in Wackersdorf in the preparation race for the FIA ​​World Championship again with Gustafsson, place the CRG colors among the most prominent in the first part of the season in the top class with gearbox. To these successes, we need to add the title of European Vice Champion obtained by Jeremy Iglesias and the many podiums conquered in the WSK races, which complete an exceptional outcome for the CRG-TM duo in these first 6 months of the 2023 season.

The second and final Round of the FIA ​​European Championship of the KZ and KZ2 categories took place on the Sarno circuit; CRG and Jeremy Iglesias got there with the opportunity to win the title in the top class, after the victory in Round 1 in Spain. Unfortunately, however, the French driver, despite a solid weekend, closed the Final only in P5 behind Danilo Albanese who, on the other hand, had scored more points in the qualifying stages and in the Final he obtained P2, thus conquering the Championship success.

The CRG Racing Team and Jeremy Iglesias will be in the spotlight next weekend in Sarno, where is scheduled the 2nd and last round of the FIA ​​European Championship - KZ & KZ2. In fact, the French driver won the Final of the 1st Round on the Zuera track in the KZ category in Spain and will get to the decisive appointment in Sarno, sitting just 2 points behind Senna Van Walstijn who, thanks to a better score in the Qualifying stages in Spain, leads the provisional standings with 72 points.

Last weekend the Sarno track hosted the last round of the WSK Open Series, an event where the top KZ category came under the spotlight: all drivers and teams protagonists of the international races, took part in the race in this class to prepare for the next round of the FIA ​​European Championship, which will be hosted by the Italian track.

CRG colors experienced a top weekend during the 1^st Round of the FIA ​​European Championship – KZ & KZ2 that took place in Zuera, Spain, from 13^th to 16^th April. In the top KZ class, Jeremy Iglesias and his CRG Road Rebel dominated the Final from the 1^st to the last lap, also setting the fastest lap of the race, ahead of Viganò and Van Walstijn on the finish line.

This weekend, from 13^th to 16^th April, the Zuera circuit in Spain will host the 1^st Round of the FIA Karting European Championship - KZ & KZ2, one of the most important events of the season for the shifter categories.

The 3^rd  Round of the WSK Super Master Series will take place on the Sarno circuit from 1^st to 5^th  March, with the usual Mini, OK Junior, OK and KZ classes competing on the track. On this occasion, all eyes will be on the KZ category, as the 2^nd and final round of the European Championship will take place right here on the Sarno racetrack.

An almost complete line-up for the CRG Racing Team in Lonato where the 1st Round of the WSK Super Master Series is scheduled for this weekend.

CRG gets back on top of the world of international karting and does it in the most beautiful and clear way ever, winning both the most important titles in the shifter categories: the FIA​​ Karting World Championship KZ and the FIA Karting World Cup KZ2. A perfect weekend for the CRG drivers at Le Mans in France, where the two most important titles were awarded in a single round.

The 2022 edition of the FIA ​​European Championship KZ & KZ2 is about to start in Belgium, where the first round of the season is scheduled at the Genk circuit for this weekend. According to the schedule there will be 2 races for this Championship with the 2^nd and final appointment that will take place in Italy at the new Cremona track in June. The KZ2 title, where 94 drivers will race against each other, as well as the KZ top class one, with 33 registered drivers, are up for grabs.

The 2022 WSK Master Series has ended on the Sarno track and it has once again underlined the CRG Racing Team drivers’ positive performances. Especially Jeremy Iglesias in the KZ category was able to capitalize best on CRG's potential, scoring P4 and fighting for the podium throughout the race.

The 4^th and final round of the WSK Master Series, one of the most important international championships on the sidelines of the FIA ​​events, will take place at the International Circuit of Naples from 10^th to 13^th March. Actually, for the KZ category it will be the 3^rd round as it was not scheduled for last week in Lecce, contrarily to the Mini, OK Junior and OK Senior classes.

The run-up to the international season continues for the CRG Racing Team, which was protagonist of the 2^nd Round of the WSK Master in Lonato last weekend. For the CRG drivers and the technical staff it was a weekend that provided important technical information, although unfortunately for various reasons it did not bring significant results. When racing the main goal is always the result, but for a Factory Team the technical development work is of equal importance and at this stage of the year it is a priority, as the first real comparison tests among the main competitors on the 2022 chassis are now taking place on the track.

From 9^th to 13^th February the Lonato track will host the 2^nd round of the WSK Master, which will be attended by around 350 drivers in the 4 international Mini, OK Junior, OK Senior and KZ categories. This large turnout is a positive sign and rewards the choice of the main teams and constructors involved in international karting, to jointly select the races to take part in, on the sidelines of the FIA ​​Karting events. In this way the commitments of the teams will be more manageable and the show on the track always at a high level.

The CRG Racing Team's first official race of the 2022 season, which took place from 27^th to 30^th January on the Lonato track, has ended with a positive balance. The target was to have the first results in racing conditions for the newly approved 2022 chassis and the feedback received in all categories has satisfied the technical staff of the CRG racing department.

The FIA ​​World Championship KZ & KZ2 weekend, which took place in Kristianstad (Sweden) from the 2^nd to the 5^th of September, was lacking in satisfaction for the CRG drivers. After Giacomo Pollini's victory in the KZ2 European Championship and Paolo Ippolito's success in the Adria race in KZ, expectations were high, but the most important event of the year was not lucky for the CRG colors.

The most important event of the season it’s finally here: the FIA ​​World Championship for the KZ and KZ2 classes will take place in Sweden on the Kristianstad track from the 2^nd to the 5^th of September. 28 top drivers will fight against each other in KZ and in this category the CRG Factory Team will line up 3 drivers with great ambitions: Jeremy Iglesias, Alex Irlando and Paolo Ippolito. Unfortunately Jaime Alguersuari had to forfeit due to the persistent pain in his ribs. The Spanish driver is expected to come back racing around the end of the season.

From the 12^th to the 15^th of August the KZ and KZ2 classes will compete in the 2^nd and final round of the European Championship on the Adria racetrack, in Italy. After the first positive race for both categories in Wackersdorf, the CRG drivers are ready to fight for the two titles, in a weekend which is announced to be filled with interesting features.

The weekend that has just ended in Germany on the Wackersdorf circuit, where the 1^st Round of the FIA ​​European Championship for the KZ and KZ2 classes took place from the 17^th to the 20^th of June, was very positive for the CRG colors. The CRG official team lined up 7 drivers and could not count on Jaime Alguersuari in the last minute, after he had to forfeit the race weekend due to persistent pain in his ribs, caused by a crack suffered in the pre-race tests.

The 1^st Round of the FIA ​​European Championship for the KZ and KZ2 classes is scheduled for this weekend in Wackersdorf, from the 17^th to the 20^th of June. The 2021 Continental Championship will be awarded over 2 races and after the opening round in Germany it will end in August on the Adria racetrack, in Italy.

International karting will be on stage in Adria this weekend where is scheduled the 2^nd round of the WSK Euro Series, a particularly interesting meeting for the KZ category that will compete on the same track in the 2^nd and final round of the FIA ​​European Championship in August. 47 drivers will compete in the premier class, with all the top drivers and the most important teams giving a great show on the track. Overall, as in every WSK event, there will be 4 classes in the race and together with the KZ we will see the Mini with 87 entrants, the OK-Junior with 71 drivers and the OK with 40.

The weekend of the WSK Euro Series in Lonato has just ended and it has been characterized by the rain that heavily influenced the results of the final day on Sunday. Despite this, the Frenchman Jeremy Iglesias got an excellent second place in the final of the premier class, which represents the first podium for him with the CRG colours.

International karting returns to South Garda Karting in Lonato for the 1st round of the WSK Euro Series from 6th to 11th April. For the CRG Racing Team this home race (the track is only 1 km away from the factory) will represent a new opportunity to prepare for the FIA ​​events, which will begin in May.

As in 2019, Italy and the Lonato track will host again the most important event for the KZ classes: the KZ2 FIA World Cup and the KZ FIA World Championship. There will be 138 drivers fighting for the most important titles of the shifter categories (33 in KZ and 105 in KZ2) and the CRG Racing Team will take the field with a very competitive line-up in both classes.
