The 7 Laghi Kart in Castelletto di Branduzzo (PV) was the scene of the second and final round of the WSK Open Cup mini-series and the NEWMAN Motorsport team from Cesena gained access again in Final A with Flavio Olivieri (OKJ) and Patrik Fraboni (60 Mini). Andrey Petrovic (OKJ) finished Final B in seventh place after a difficult weekend for him and Giacomo Pedrini (60 Mini) in tenth position with nine positions recovered in just 8 laps.
Weather forecasts respected with rain, fog and sun that conditioned the three days of races, forcing the riders to change setups between one heat and the other passing from rain to slick tires.
"It was a difficult weekend, but certainly very instructive for all our drivers, three in OKJ and two in 60 Mini. The track conditions were very variable between one run and another, but this is the same constant for everyone. I am very pleased with the steady growth of our drivers, particularly Flavio, who still has two to three tenths left, and Patrik who have been riding on very good times. Petrovic is also good, unfortunately betrayed by the lack of experience with this material, especially in the Prefinal due to a track exit in a particularly wet area. But this too is part of the experience and I am sure that already at Adria he will be able to treasure it to improve himself further. Both Flavio and Andrey are at first experience in OKJ and with this material and they have met pilots with an entire season in this category. Therefore I am very satisfied with their work and soon the results they deserve will come for them too ” comments team manager Andrea Pedrini.
