CRG Announce Works Team Drivers For 2015


CRG press release 11 January 2015
 

CRG works team has been decided ahead of season 2015, as the squad is more determined than ever to get great results and make the winning quality of its material shine. CRG will field an attack squad that is all set to climb the classification of the most prestigious races and increment a team’s hall of fame that is already among the richest in the history of karting.

AN EXCEPTIONAL “TRIDENT” IN KZ1

The duty to take CRG colors to the victory in KZ1 has been taken on by the five times World Champion Davide Forè, who has been joined by two very quick new entries, the two times European Champion in KZ1 and KZ2 Paolo De Conto and the Finn Simo Puhakka. This is going to be quite a solid “trident” ready to get the full haul. The team will get on track at the Winter Cup of Lonato del Garda (Italy) next 22 February, and then will compete in WSK Super Master Series, in the European and in the World Championship.

BRAND AT THE DEBUT IN KZ2

Another new entry will be fielded by CRG in KZ2: the British driver Edward Brand, who has been among the main protagonists of the Rotax International Championships being third last year in the Euro Rotax Senior and second in the Grand Finals Rotax Senior in 2012. The KZ2 lineup will be completed by Fabian Federer, who has been European KZ2 Champion in 2011, by the Venezuelan Sidney Gomez and by the Japanese Fuma Horio, as the latter two are also quite motivated to run a strong season. The Spaniard Pedro Hiltbrand will be present at the CIK-FIA International KZ2 Super Cup. Maxter engines will be used in KZ1 and KZ2.

CRG PROTAGONISTS FOR KF

The KF lineup will be composed by Felice Tiene, who won the 2012 World Cup and is ready to run an high level season, by Pedro Hiltbrand (seventh in the European Championship last year), by the Romanian Dionisios Marcu and by the young Briton Archie Tillett, who will make his debut in the higher category.

QUINN WITH CRG IN KF JUNIOR

The very young Briton Alex Quinn will defend CRG colors in KF Junior as he is ready to confirm his value after the excellent results scored last year at his debut in the category. Iame/Parilla engines will be used in KF and KF Junior.
