Zanardi Goes 28mm For 2012 - The Chiesa Corse team has revealed they will present Zanardi chassis utilising 28mm tube for the 2012 chassis homologation.

The ‘KZ3 made by Zanardi’ will be used for both KF and KZ categories. “Thanks to this feature, the model is very light and allows (us) to work more on tube stiffness” the team said.

The new specification has already been tested on the KF1 kart of Nyck De Vries when he won the 2011 WSK Euro Series (where the rules allow chassis evolutions).

Another Verstappen for CRG - Max Verstappen has been racing CRG exclusively for several years. Now there's another Verstappen aboard the Italian machine - Victoria. Brother to Max, and daughter to Jos Verstappen and Sophie Kumpen (herself a former international karter of note), the 11-year old has been driving karts for some time, but is now stepping up to serious competition.
