Ralf Schumacher, former F1 driver with the Jordan, Williams and Toyota teams, who has been increasingly active in karting in recent years with his team, launches RS, his own kart product line, and he has chosen IPKarting as the manufacturere of the chassis that will have his name on its fairings.

The RS chassis will be designed and manufactured in the IPKarting production plant in Salizzole (VR), in Italy, and will be distributed worldwide directly by Schumacher's company, which is headquartered in Kerpen, in Germany.

The RS trademark will be on the international kart racing scene for the first time during the next world championship event in Genk, during the weekend of 8-9 September.
