EDITORIAL After the opening round in the classic landscape of Muro Leccese, here we are in Spanish lands. The prestigious venue of Zuera is the first frontier of a kart-racing Europe that this year, more than ever, will be redesigned on the map at the farthest latitudes.

WELCOME TO ZUERA As Mayor of the City of Zuera, I’d like to welcome all participants and fans of the European Karting Championship, a major motorsport series that continues to grow in prestige year after year. We are honored, once again, to host an event of such high caliber at the national and international level at our very own Zuera International Circuit. Over the years, sporting events like this have helped to make Zuera famous as a modern and dynamic municipality, eager to embrace the world of sports and add the element of competition to its already rich offer of cultural and leisure events. Culture, sports and leisure: these are the key elements for any city that aspires to be open to the world and attract the broadest range of visitors and tourists. In addition to saluting participants and fans of the European Karting Championship, I also wish to congratulate organizers on the expertise acquired over the years, ever since they took their first steps in 2007. We are honored to welcome them and the motorsport world once more to the Circuito Internacional de Zuera, our city’s pride and joy. I am confident that this important European event, scheduled from May 29th to June 1st, will spark the enthusiasm and interest of our residents and attract the attention of sport fans far and wide.

FEDERAL BLESSINGS It is a great honor to welcome the best representatives of international karting to Zuera for the second round of the KF and KF Junior European Championship. The great competition is gathering the world’s most esteemed kart drivers in the lands of Aragón, thanks to the trust that the FIA has placed in the fantastic management team of the Circuito Internacional de Zuera. Let me remind everyone of the important improvements to the track and to venue facilities that have guaranteed the renewal of CIK-FIA homologation: it is thanks to its spirit of renovation that the Zuera Circuit continues to be an international standard of excellence. We are proud that our country has organizers like the Zuera Racing Sport Club, capable of attracting the most prestigious events on calendar, year after year. Of course, my greatest salute goes to the true protagonists of this motor feast: drivers. Supported by their families, teams, and friends, they will offer us a fantastic show that everyone can enjoy. I am certain that the event, which is part of the Racing for Spain program, will be an absolute success, just like all previous events held in Zuera in the past. Finally, I would like to extend a special thank you to the public institutions of Aragón and to the sponsors and media channels that nurture the growth of motorsport in our country and internationally. It is thanks to all of them if today our region gets to enjoy the best show karting has to offer. Carlos Gracia President of the R. F. E. de A. and FIA Vicepresident

BEST LAP It is true, race events get won or lost on the last lap of the final race. Yet, drivers have to manage a whole weekend to get there. Here we take a look at how the KF and KFJ European title contenders did in the 1st round at the La Conca circuit (Muro Leccese, Italy): from the fast runners throughout to those who mastered the prefinal and the top three who landed on the final podium.

ROUND 1 REPORT - KF

The winner is Callum Ilott (Zanardi/Parilla), who leads the final from start to finish, proving that he has talent, but also that team opted for the right strategy. The Zanardi Strakka crew and Ilott, in fact, decided to switch to 2 new tires as early as the prefinal. The goal was winning the race in order to conquer the best spot on the start grid of the final (read “pole position” - in other words front row, inside lane) and so maximize the chances of topping the podium. And that’s exactly how things went. Niko Kari (Tony Kart/Vortex) closes the race behind Ilott, confirming the good state he’s shown since the start of the season. He never really posed a threat to his rival this weekend, but his result is excellent, especially considering the level of competition he was up against. Lando Norris (FA Kart/Vortex) completes the podium, his first ever as a KF rookie. And he actually gives the impression he could’ve done better, judging from his speed across Saturday’s heats. At the start of the final he gets caught up in “traffic” and is pushed back, but he does a great job of rising up to the top 3, driving the fastest lap of the race. Right below the podium there is Felice Tiene (CRG/TM),

06

author of an incredible climb from the rear that leaves everybody stunned: good job! His connational Alessio Lorandi (Tony Kart/TM), instead, is unlucky. The Baby Race driver, in fact, started the final from a tough position and nine laps later he was forced to retire. A round of applause goes, instead, to Pedro Hiltbrand (CRG/TM), who catches a glimpse of the podium after being one of the fastest all weekend. In the final he is running in fourth place, when he hears someone “nocking” behind him. The one asking to be let through is his teammate Tiene, who apparently is CRG’s “first” driver since Pedro steps aside and lets him by. All things considered, the Spanish driver more than proved he has what it takes to be up front. Let’s close with two names who we are used to seeing in very differet areas of the standings: Karol Basz (Tony Kart/Vortex) and defending World champion Tom Joyner (Zanardi/Parilla), respectively ninth and tenth at the end of the Muro Leccese opener: well below their standards, but there are three rounds to go and all is yet to be seen. Based on what we saw in Italy, it’s going to be a tight fight the whole way through!

On the opening round of the European championship for the KF and the KFJ, the gorgeous summer weather and blazing sun certainly helped make the Muro Leccese weekend sizzle. Shifting our focus from the heat on track to the zest of the grand show, the Drivers’ Presentation ceremony offered a colorful dance of flags from all over the world, reminding us that global acclaim is what give CIK-FIA series their fame, along with seamless organization, top quality standards, and the best expression of competitiveness one can find in the sport of karting.

ROUND 1 REPORT - KFJ

Enaam Ahmed (FA Kart/Vortex) follows up on his early season successes on WSK fields by proving he is the man to beat, for now, also in the 2014 CIK-FIA European title hunt. He secures his triumph at the start of the final, pouncing from third place into the lead. This is where he stays until the finish. Behind him it’s a whole different story as “madness” ensues. In the end the runner-up spot goes to Logan Sargeant (FA Kart/Vortex), who wins the “duel” with Devlin Defrancesco (Tony Kart/Vortex). After dominating the heats and winning the prefinal Defrancesco was the favorite going into the final, but a bad start pushed him back and forced him to race “up hill”: at the end of a good recovery, he has to make do with the lowest step of the podium. Alex Vartanyan (Tony Kart/Vortex) and Leonardo Lorandi (Tony Kart/TM) round off the top 5 with good performances (the Italian even caught a glimpse of the podium in the first half of the race). Max Fewtrell (FA Kart/Vortex) snatches sixth place from Mick Junior (Tony Kart/Vortex), who closes seventh. Behind him at the finish there is Lessenes (Kosmic/Parilla), author of a mad climb past 25 rivals from start to finish. Too

10

bad that afterwards race commissioners penalize him for a contact with Yeu Yang (FA Kart/Vortex) in the early phases of the race and send him down to P17. It is David Beckmann (Tony Kart/Vortex) who thus inherits 8th place and also the “kangaroo” prize for the best rebound: 22 overtakes! A great success for the Morsicani Racing driver that confirms the talent for speed displayed on Friday, when he drove the second overall fastest time, behind teammate Defrancesco. The other great “climbers” of the final are Tonteri (Art GP/TM) and Correa (Energy/TM), both able to rise 16 spots up the field to close respectively 11th and 12th, and Fernandez (Kosmic/TM), who improves on an unlucky prefinal by 11 positions and ends 21st. Things go badly, instead, for Pull and Petrov. At the start of the final Team DR’s Russian “knight” quickly gets up to 11th right behind Pull, too close though: he gets hooked on his rear end. Result? Petrov slips down and ends his rebound in P19, while his rival has to retire. The same goes for CRG’s Eliseo Martinez, out shortly after the start, even if so far this season he gave the impression that he could be a top KFJ player even as a rookie. We’ll have to wait and see.

R E G U L AT I O N Below is an excerpt of the Federation’s Regulation Book disciplining the 2014 CIK-FIA European Championship for both the KF and KFJ classes: CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM

STARTING PROCEDURE

In both classes, the Championship runs over 4 rounds. Each event will comprise Free Practice, Qualifying Practice, Qualification Heats with the possibility of a Second Chance Heat*, and a final phase made of one or two Prefinals* and the Final. (*Depending on the number of participants). In each round, points are assigned to the Top 10 of the Intermediate Classification and the Top 15 of the Final race. The title of CIK-FIA European Champion will be awarded to the Driver with the most points overall, with the possibility to discard the worst Intermediate result and the worst Final result.

At the end of the Formation Lap, Drivers will proceed at a reduced and constant speed towards the Start Line, creating two lines of karts. Partial crossing of the lanes is liable to a 3 sec. penalty, while leaving the corridor completely and/or overtaking will be sanctioned with a 10 sec. penalty. If a Driver stops during the Formation Lap, he may try to start again from the back of the formation. If he tries to re-start ahead of the field he will be excluded from the event. Karts must maintain their position until the start signal is given. If the Track Clerk/Race Director is not satisfied, he will switch on the orange light, which means that another Formation Lap must be covered.

ELIGIBLE KARTS & EQUIPMENT The Championship is reserved respectively for KF2 and KF3 karts, as defined in the Technical Regulations. At Scrutineering, each Driver is entitled to submit: 2 chassis of the same make, 2 engines of the same make, plus 3 sets of Dunlop “slicks” if in KF, or 2 sets of Vega “slicks” if in KFJ (tires will be allocated by random draw). Karts must be presented in full double configuration (“dry” and “wet”) and ready for use, with engines. In both Championships, from Qualifying Practice on, each Driver is allowed to use a maximum of: 2 chassis and 2 engines (those marked at Scrutineering) and 2 sets of both slicks and wet tires (a total of 4 front/4 rear tires of both types).

NEW POINT SYSTEM

SUSPENDING & RESUMING A RACE In case of an accident blocking the track or dangerous conditions, the Track Clerk/Race Director may decide to stop the race, ordering the showing of the RED FLAG on the Finish Line and at Marshals’ posts. If the race is a Practice: all karts must reduce speed and return to the Service Park. If the race is a Heat, a Prefinal, or a Final: all karts must reduce speed and will be directed either to the Service Park entrance, or asked to stop on track. If the race is suspended definitely, the classification will be as it is at the end of the lap prior to the stop. If the race is to resume, Drivers will be warned at least 10 minutes in advance. The race will resume under “SLOW” speed (YELLOW FLAG).

The phases worth points towards the 2014 CIK-FIA title of European Champion are the HEATS and the FINAL. Points are assigned to the TOP 10 of the combined Intermediate Standings (established after the Heats) and the TOP 15 of the Final.
