Everything is ready for the Second and Final Round of the FIA Karting European Championship – KZ/KZ2. After constantly fighting with the best at the first round of Wackersdorf, we are now taking part in the decisive championship weekend on the Naples International Circuit, one of the fastest tracks on the international scene, where the couple Tony Kart-Vortex has already centered brilliant performances in the first half of the season.
Matteo Viganò, in particular, arrives in Sarno fortified by the second place obtained in Wackersdorf and fully in the running for the KZ title. At his side, in the same category, will also run Marco Ardigò and Simo Puhakka, who already left their mark on this circuit this year (Marco with a second place in the WSK Super Master Series, right ahead of Viganò; Puhakka winning the race of the WSK Euro Series). For the FIA Karting European Championship also Noah Milell will compete in the shifter category, on a track that he has known in the direct-drive categories.
In KZ2, our standard-bearers will be once again Alessio Piccini and David Vidales. Both are back from good performances in the unpredictable weather conditions in Wackersdorf, during the first round: Alessio got a victory in the heats by completing several overtakes; David gained good results culminating with the 4th final place, giving him the possibility to fight for the title. Of course, the confidence of our drivers with the OTK technical material at their disposal will be very important on such a demanding track.
