Lonato del Garda, 29 June 2018. Beautiful numbers and an excellent park starting at South Garda Karting in Lonato for the fourth round of the Italian ACI Karting Championship, with 210 riders on the track in the categories of KZ2, 60 Mini, OK-Junior, Rok and Rotax.

Among the excellent names present in Lonato, also Emerson Fittipaldi, twice World Champion in Formula 1 and twice winner of the Indianapolis 500 Miles. Emerson is on track for the Italian Championship in Lonato to follow and assist his son Emmo, 11, debut in the Junior category with the Rok after having already competed in the Italian Championship last year in the Mini. In the Junior Rok is also the other child of art, Enzo Trulli, son of the former F1 driver Jarno Trulli. Brando Badoer, son of the former former F1 driver Luca Badoer, also presents in the Mini among the main protagonists.

The most numerous categories are the Mini with 82 riders, but also the KZ2 with 60 riders and the Rok with 33 Junior and 19 Senior. Some of the protagonists of the KZ2 also use this test to better prepare for the European Championship scheduled in Lonato on July 15th. Among these is the absolute debut in KZ2 of the Englishman Danny Keirle, the new World Champion in the OK category, competing with the Team Driver Racing Kart with the KR chassis and Iame engine, intending to dedicate itself also to the international activity of the category with marches.

At the start of this appointment will not be present in KZ2 Marco Zanchetta, who surprisingly interrupted his collaboration with Maranello. Zanchetta, Italian Champion in 2017, is fourth in the standings behind Giacomo Pollini (Formula K), Giuseppe Palomba (Intrepid) and Davide Forè (BirelArt). Massimo Dante replaces Zanchetta in the official Maranello team. Among the prominent names, another debut concerns Simone Cunati here in the race with the Modena Kart Team.
