[dropcap]3[/dropcap]60 drivers travelled from 59 countries to convene at the track to begin the week-long journey of battling for the top step of the podium.
Saturday saw the entrants register for the event.
Sunday was the Kart Raffle day, where the competitors where assigned their kart and engine through a random selection process. After receiving their complete Grand Finals package, the karts were pushed back to the driver tent, which can hold more than 500 people, where, in the blistering Napolitan heat, driver and mechanic began working in preparation for their first on-track day, tomorrow.
The Welcome Party will be held tonight, conveniently at the track for all drivers to come together and celebrate the spirit of Rotax karting.
The party also will see the annual Team Contest, with 30 international team entries. Each team will be judged based on the drivers’ team spirit, the uniformity of their team wear and their overall passion for their homeland. Starting

Monday you can like which team you favor on Facebook, and the winning team, the one with the most likes on Facebook, along with the jury’s approval, will be announced on Saturday night at the driver’s party.
Rotax would also like to extend a warm thank you to its chassis partners – Birel ART, IPKarting (Praga) and Sodikart, as they have worked very hard to contribute to the making of the 17th annual Rotax MAX Challenge Grand Finals.
Stay tuned for our upcoming daily reports, which bring the intense action of the RMCGF to you!
The Rotax MAX Challenge (RMC) is a professional kart racing series established, owned and organized by BRP and its Rotax kart engine distributors. Approved by and in compliance with CIK / FIA, the RMC is a "one-make-engine" formula: only Rotax kart engines that are checked and sealed (for equal performance) will be used. The success in the competition is mainly up to the skills of the driver.
