CRG TO THE FORE AT WSK WITH BORTOLETO, HILTBRAND AND DE CONTO
At the International Circuit Napoli in Sarno, the final classification of WSK Super Master Series saw Bortoleto ending second in OK-Junior, Pedro Hiltbrand fifth due to an excursion in OK and Paolo De Conto third in KZ2.

The performance of CRG drivers at the fourth and closing round of the WSK Super Master Series has been very high in the second weekend in a row at the International Circuit Napoli of Sarno. CRG drivers have been in the fight for the title in all categories and are all set to be protagonist in the forthcoming European CIK-FIA Championships.

GREAT BORTOLETO IN OK-JUNIOR. CRG hopes in OK-Junior were mainly on Gabriel Bortoleto, and the young Brazilian driver has been among the quickest also in this occasion, securing P1 at the end of heats after a troubled qualifying session. The Final run by Bortoleto has been amazing too: he claimed a second place finish, despite starting sixteenth due to an off-track excursion in Prefinal. Bortoleto ended second in the final classification, just one point short of the top, which shows that he is certainly ready to fight among the main protagonists at the forthcoming European Championship, that will kick off from Sarno next April 22nd.

Among the other CRG drivers, Adam Putera was 23rd in the Final, while Alfio Spina has been hit by bad luck despite showing a good growth in Sarno and claiming his maiden pole position in Junior. Resolute to run a good race, Spina was involved in an incident in Prefinal-B which did not allow him to take part in the Final. Xizheng Huang, Enzo Trulli, Tyler Maxson and Elio Giovane could not qualify for the Final either. The Final was won by Paul Aron, while the championship was went to Gabriele Minì.

HILTBRAND LET DOWN BY AN EXCURSION IN OK. Pedro Hiltbrand could not capitalize on the starting P5 on the OK starting grid due to an excursion that made him lose several precious positions in the heat of the first lap. This round has nevertheless been very positive for Hiltbrand, despite an incident in one heat that did not allow him to get a better starting position in Prefinal, which he managed to end with a strong and excellent P3 anyway. Hiltbrand closed the final in fifth place and he was fifth also in the final classification of the championship. Kilian Meyer was 17th in the Final, Ayrton Fontecha 23rd, Andrea Rosso 25th, while Franco Colapinto had to retire due to an incident instead. An incident in Prefinal involved team mates at CRG Callum Bradshaw and Olin Galli. This incident did not have consequences for the two drivers, but both could not qualify for the Final though. Javier Sagrera of Team M2 Racing Karts was 13th in the Final after a strong qualifying. The Final was won by Hannes Janker, who also won the Championship.

DE CONTO VERY COMBATIVE IN KZ2. In KZ2, the most powerful category, Paolo De Conto put in a overwhelming comeback in the closing weekend of WSK Super Master Series. Starting from qualifying practice he has been very strong to halfway through the Final, when he engaged a great duel with Alex Irlando to defend his P2 behind Ardigò. De Conto had to concede his place to Irlando and shortly after also to Hajek, eventually settling for P4. De Conto closed the championship in third place, while the Final and the Championship went Marco Ardigò’s ways. Among the private drivers on CRG, Ciro Mollo has been the quickest in P11, while Alessandro Giardelli of the CRG Racing Team was 14th and Marco Valenti 21st. Andreas Johansson in P20.

GREAT RACE BY MATVEEV IN MINI. One of the main protagonists in Mini on CRG run by Team Gamoto was the Russian Dmitry Matveev, who claimed the pole position and was leading the pack after heats. Matveev ended the Final in 13rd place, after being fourth in Prefinal-A. The Final was won by Martinius Stenshorne, who also won the championship.

A victory, a podium finish, and great satisfactions for Zanardi Strakka Racing at the first round of the Master Series, under the rain

KFJ
Daniel Ticktum

In his pre-final (A) he starts from 3rd place and duels it out with Benjamin Lessennes, but by mid-race he is in the lead and never lets go until the end. In the final, the Brit loses the top spot he had on grid and ends up behind Leonardo Lorandi. He does an excellent job of staying put and trailing behind the Italian to study his moves. After just 5 laps Ticktum knows what to do and pounces ahead. He is first across the line when the checkered flag waves. With this great victory the driver confirms he is in great shape and proves he made the right choice staying in KFJ, rather than rushing to the KF. With Zanardi Strakka Racing, of course.

Marta Garcia Lopez

Marta Garcia is not so brilliant throughout the heats (7- 19 -21 – 22) and the position she gains for the start of the pre-final (23rd on grid, group B) turns out to be tough to manage, especially given the adverse weather conditions: the track is wet and a contact sends her further down the field. Marta is determined, however, and attempts a rebound that brings her up one spot to 22nd place, just a breath short of qualifying for the final.

Lucas Legeret
Despite an arm injury from the WSK Champions Cup, the young Swiss driver gives it all he has in the first round of the Master Series. He obtains alternating results in the heats (18 – 12 – 20 – 15) that place him 21st for the start of his pre-final (B). Here he makes a little miracle happen, rising 7 positions and closing 14th. In the final he then sets off on an up-hill climb, but gets stuck in rear field traffic and ends 29th.

 

KF
Tom Joyner
In the first half of the weekend, the defending World Champion doesn’t seem to be finding the right set-up to deliver his usual performance standards. He collects decent heat results, but he’s lacking in speed. Then, come Sunday, he is back to being the great driver we all know him as. In his prefinal (A) he climbs up seven positions and grabs the lead of the field. In the final he starts from P2, but in lap 1 he gets a harsh shove from behind and drops all the way to the rear, with a silent engine. From here he then sets off on a mad ascent and, lap after lap, slices his way up to 13th.

Callum Ilott

The English driver is competitive all weekend long, on top of the charts in each phase. After great heat results (3 – 2 – 3), he starts his pre-final (A) from P2 and ends 3rd. In the final he is 6th on grid, but after two laps he is already running 2nd and proves he has what it takes to stay there until the finish-line. Callum has given ample proof of his skills and speed. He is one of the three drivers who in the final drove under 1’28”. And in critical race conditions under the heavy rain, he focused on the championship as a whole, avoiding useless risks and managing his runner-up position very well.

KZ2

Rick Dreezen
After the heats (2nd and twice 3rd), the Belgian is 5th overall. In his pre-final (B) he starts from 2nd place, then leads from lap 1 to lap 7 and is again 2nd when the flag waves. In the final he starts from P4, in the initial traffic jam he gets bumped and slides back to 13th and from here he does a great job of rising back up all the way to 6th. It’s just too bad he didn’t make the podium: he had the speed and the skills to be there.
