A new promotional project aimed at youth karting is destined to attract the attention of many young drivers and their families. In recent days, in fact, Greentire, a consortium company among the national leaders in the management and recovery of out-of-use tires, has presented an initiative dedicated to the youngest, boys between 7 and 11 years, who practice or want to practice competitive activities in karting. As part of the activities called "Greentire in pista", the management of the consortium company has devised a project to support the competitive season of two young promising national karting. To give substance to this project, Greentire chose one of the championships with the most promotional and training content: the Mini category in the Briggs Kart Championship series. The single-brand karting championship promoted in partnership by CRG and Briggs & Stratton will be the ideal context to develop a real Talent, which aims to identify and support two deserving drivers. Next to Greentire in this operation there will also be the management of CRG, which through the youth sector of the Briggs Kart project intends to expand the number of practitioners in karting and support the career of the most deserving. The Greentire initiative will be structured in two phases: the first selection of the two winners through an event to be held at the Franciacorta indoor circuit on Sunday 24 February and the second for the inclusion of the winners in the Greentire team specifically set up to take part in the 2019 Briggs Kart Championship in the Mini category. The two winners of the Talent will have the opportunity to play the entire season (8 races all over the country) with the technical costs incurred by Greentire, which in addition to entrusting young drivers with a fully customized Kart Mini Briggs, will also give them a professional technical assistance and technical clothing.


So the Roberto Bianco of Greentire presented the initiative: "The presence of the Greentire brand in karting is not new: last year, the initiative" Greentire on track "gave us positive feedback.The 2019 project is the natural evolution of this activity, which can assume a significant value in the karting panorama thanks to the collaboration with CRG, a company with which we have hypothesized a medium-term path.With the Mini category of the Briggs Kart Championship we intend to train two young drivers who can then look to further step of their growth in karting, both with our support and with the support of CRG.


The philosophy of our consortium company has many points in common with this activity and has been enthusiastically married by the entire Cd.A. of Greentire. The young people of today will be the drivers and the citizens of tomorrow. In fact, it will be up to them to take the necessary decisions to make this world more sustainable and to commit itself to respect for the environment. And it is precisely to young people that "Greentire in pista" is addressed with this project, which confirms the consortium's commitment to communicating in a dynamic and direct way also through sport. Common drivers are passion and determination; passion for the activity that is taking place and determination in achieving the result. Just as young drivers love to compete and are aimed at their sporting goal, so Greentire pursues its mission - the recovery of matter - with dedication and tenacity. We hope and expect strong adhesion. From this event, a specialized jury will select two winners according to various parameters and after just one week the adventure will begin in the race with the first round of the Briggs Kart Championship series: the two winners will be the Greentire team drivers and will play the entire season as drivers official and without costs ".
