Green light for the start of the IAME X30 Euro Series with large entries

More than six months after the IAME Winter Cup in Valencia, the time has finally come for the IAME X30 Euro Series season to resume. From July 23rd to 26th, the most experienced IAME X30 teams and best drivers will compete in Essay for the first of four race meetings in four countries, France, Spain, Italy and Belgium, from July to October.

The opener of the series takes place on the Circuit International d’Aunay-Les-Bois, in Normandy. Located not far from Le Mans, the 1213 meter-long circuit is considered as one of France’s top-level karting layouts, mixing slow and fast turns along with overtaking spots, including an impressive back-and-forth downhill run where drivers keep it flat-out!

Strong driver presence on track

Success has been on the rise over the years for the competition promoted by RGMMC, with a level of racing constantly reaching new highs to make it one of the most disputed karting series in Europe. This should be no different for its 2020 re-start with a provisional entry list for Essay filled with more than 150 competitors from 20 countries in Senior, Junior and Mini, all impatient to return to the track for the first international event reserved to IAME X30 classes since the karting season resumed.

With more than 60 participants so far, Senior (from 14 years old) confirms its rank as the prime class of the series with some of last year’s protagonists like Callum Bradshaw (Fusion Motorsport), Jordan Brown-Nutley (Strawberry Racing) and Sean Butcher (KR Sport) driving for the most-competitive outfits from Great Britain.

Junior features an equally-open field of more than 40 entries aged between 12 and 14 years old, including some of the most promising drivers shining in national IAME series, like the Dutchman Bart Ploeg (Delré Racing), the Brit Aaron Walker (Strawberry Racing) and his countryman, and last year’s Top Three-finisher, Marcus Luzio (Dan Holland Racing).

The Mini class, also filled with 50 competitors, always produces thrilling racing between the youngest drivers from nine to 12 years old. Contenders for podium and victories will be numerous, including Leo and Edu Robinson (Fusion Motorsport) whose results in 2019 put them among some of the category’s favorites.

Top-quality streaming and numerous prices

The entire meeting at Essay will be streamed worldwide on the IAME X30 Euro Series’s official website and social media pages, allowing relatives and friends to watch at all times their drivers during Qualifying Heats, Prefinals and Finals thanks to the top-level streaming and commentary provided by the RGMMC crew.

Along with the usual awards for the Top-Three drivers in each class at the end of every meeting, RGMMC is pleased to introduce from 2020 the “Driver of the Day” trophy, awarding the best competitor in each category, along with a free set of race slick tires!

Prices will also be aplenty once the season comes to an end! The Top-Three drivers will receive a free entry for the first IAME International Games, on November 26-29 at Portimao, along with a free set of race slick tires, while an “end of the year raffle” will award three tickets to the 2021 IAME Winter Cup as well as one IAME engine per class!

The IAME X30 Euro Series also agreed with Superkarts! USA to give away free tickets and race slick tires for Las Vegas’s SuperNationals to the winner of the competition in Senior, Junior and Mini, as well as to the driver able to take three Prefinal pole positions during the season!
