Used as a test track throughout the year by the biggest international teams, South Garda Karting in Lonato once again revealed the qualities of the chassis from the Sodikart factory and its Racing Team, in partnership with CPB Sport. Emilien Denner gave a perfect performance in KZ2, winning another title in the WSK Open Cup.

The 2022 season is definitely continuing successfully for the Sodi-TM Racing karts. "At each new event, victory is our goal and we work hard for it," said Mansel Smith, Sodi Racing Team Manager. "The WSK Open Cup was another opportunity for us to demonstrate our skills. Several drivers were entered in KZ2 with the CPB Sport team, including our official driver Emilien Denner. In OK-Junior, we were represented by young drivers who are continuing their progression and gaining valuable experience for the future. We also supported our British driver Nathan Tye on his debut in the OK category. He ended up setting some excellent times in the Final, which is promising. It was both a successful and instructive meeting."

Over a lap during the Timed Practice as well as over the duration of a Final, Emilien Denner proved to be the best performer of the event in KZ2. On Friday, it was raining, allowing the team to confirm the performance of the Sodi chassis with treaded tyres. Emilien followed up with a victory in the same conditions, before winning the next two heats on Saturday, this time in the dry. His rivals continued to put him under pressure the following day throughout the Final phase, but Emilien mastered the exercise perfectly. He eventually broke away from the pack to win with a comfortable lead. The CPB Sport team was also pleased with the top ten finish for Frenchman Thomas Imbourg, as well as the progress of German driver Mark Negrutsa and newcomer Yevan David from Sri Lanka.

"Every victory has a special flavour and it is still very satisfying to share this new title in a WSK event with the Sodi team, who have done another fantastic job, as has our engine builder. We started the season with a success and it has continued to the end of the year, it's great," commented Emilien.
