TKART Staff
26 February 2024

The Finals will award the 2024 titles of MINI Gr.3, MINI U10, OKJ, OK, OKNJ and KZ2 on Saturday, March 2.

The fourth and final round of the WSK Super Master Series is going to take place at the International Circuit Napoli in Sarno, from February 27 to March 2. The event is promising a spectacular conclusion to the 2024 championship. So far, the competition has been intense in the MINI Gr.3, MINI U10, OKJ, OK, OKNJ, and KZ2 categories. The final phase of this series will be held on Saturday, March 2, with the Prefinals and Finals determining the category champions.

153 points up for grabs in Sarno.
In the first three rounds in Lonato, Cremona and Franciacorta, the battles for victory have showcased many champions. However, nothing is certain, and Sarno is expected to deliver duels until the last meter, with plenty of uncertainty for the final championship results. This is amplified by the incremental scoring in this final round, with a total of 153 points at stake: 13 points for the first position after the heats, 60 points for the Prefinal victory, and 80 points for the success in the Final. Unexpected twists and turns are not excluded at this moment.

MINI GR.3 - Calleja leads Mirón and Blandino.
The Australian William Calleja (#516 BabyRace/Parolin-Iame) is leading the standings in MINI Gr.3 with 241 points, followed by the Spaniard Daniel Mirón Lorente (#501 Team Driver/KR-Iame-Vega) with 231 and the Italian Cristian Blandino (#550 Kalì-Kart Racing/TGroup-TM Kart-Vega) with 212. In the three rounds contested so far, Blandino won in Lonato, Calleja in Cremona, and Mirón in Franciacorta. Three drivers representing three different teams, making the final victory wide open.

The situation is uncertain in MINI Gr.3 Under 10 as well, with the Italian Niccolò Perico (#526 Energy Corse/Energy-TM Kart-Vega), who won in Franciacorta, taking the lead with 208 points. The Swedish driver Carl Nellegard (#553 Ward Racing/Tony Kart-TM Kart-Vega), who won the first race in Lonato, is following closely with 185 points, and the Scottish driver Mason Robertson (#513 BabyRace/Parolin-Iame-Vega) is third with 141 points, showing improvement throughout the season.

Moving into second place, the Italian driver Sebastiano Pavan (#218 Tony Kart Racing Team/OTK-Vortex-LeCont) made the Ukrainian Oleksandr Bondarev (#201 Prema Racing/KR-Iame-LeCont) drop to third place, after he scored no points in the last race in Franciacorta, following his strong start in Lonato that initially placed him at the top of the championship.

The Italian driver Valerio Viapiana (#702 Team Driver/KR-Iame-Vega) is following with 171 points, consistently securing good placements in all three initial events.
