We already told you about the international racing calendar for 2013 (CLICK HERE to read the news), but just a few days ago the CIK-FIA Commission submitted the final version of the calendar to the World Motorsport Council, presenting important changes and confirming the dates for the Asian-Pacific Championship.

The Asian-Pacific Championship will be contested over two rounds for the KF category, in Suzuka and Macao, and on single match for the KF Junior and KZ.  Confirmation also for the World Cup in KZ2, which will take to the track in Varennes along with the World Championship in KZ1. Instead, the second and last round of the World Championship for the KF and the KFJ categories has been postponed by one week: both championships will contend their final match in Bahrain, from the 21st to the 23rd of November. Finally, the Superkart European  Championship has been re-scheduled over 4 instead of 3 rounds and will take to the Assen circuit in France for the second event. Still to ve defined, instead, the date of the North-American Championship, with confirmation pending for the Mont Tremblant circuit in Canada.

See below the full revised CIK-FIA calendar for 2013.
