Excellent results for IPK chassis in Lonato during the FIA Karting World Championship and the FIA Karting International Super Cup: Giacomo Pollini achieved fourth place with the Formula K chassis, after a weekend spent as a competitor. Marco Tormen came 7th with the Praga chassis. Francesco Celenta also entered the top ten in the KZ.
This is the most important weekend of the FIA Karting season for karts with gears on the South Garda Karting track in Lonato, counting towards the KZ World Championship and the KZ2 International Super Cup. There were many IPK chassis present which did well in both classes, used by both the Formula K and Praga brands. They were the highest number in KZ2, with 9 IPK chassis present, including an OK1, driven by Filippo Calligaris (OK1 Racing Team). Giacomo Pollini, a driver of the Formula K Racing Team, was very
fast in the qualifiers. He achieved the second best performance out of 122 drivers. This was the start of a series of heats raced as a protagonist, in which the Italian won twice, achieved three second and a third place, gaining a place in the second row of the starting grid. Here, he constantly competed with the best, achieving a virtual third place for a few laps and, finally, finishing fourth. An exceptional result, even if, just after the event, there remains a pinch of understandable sporting disappointment for a podium that was certainly within reach.
