Marco Ardigo was the driver in question hit by the news with a death in the family. Marco, the three time World Champion was actually already here at the Genk circuit when he received thr news of the passing of his mother. The Italian driver immediately returned home notifying his large fan base via social media.

Our management team, and indeed we can say the entire international karting community after those at Genk heard the news at the track on Friday, extend their sincerest condolences to the Ardigo family in this difficult time.
