Rumours had been circulating in the paddock of international karting events, but today it is a certainty: the paths of Franco Drudi and TM Kart are parting ways. After more than 35 years of continuous work within the Pesaro-based company, the Italian technician leaves his role, bringing to an end one of the longest and most significant collaborations in the world of international karting.
Having joined TM Racing in the 1980s and later becoming Head of the racing department, Drudi contributed to the development of TM engines both in single-speed and gearbox categories, accompanying the company through a process of technical and sporting growth that made it one of the most successful brands in karting.
The decision to end the working relationship has taken shape in recent weeks and has been confirmed by several sources close to the company. Although TM Kart has not yet released any official statement, the split is effective.
The next professional steps of Franco Drudi remain to be defined, and according to rumours he may be considering new collaborations in the world of motorsport.
