The rain arrived at the 7 Laghi International circuit in Castelletto di Branduzzo (Italy) during the second round of the WSK Super Master Series. The winners were Marco Ardigò (Tony Kart-Vortex) in KZ2, Karol Basz (Kosmic-Vortex) in KF, Clement Novalak (Tony Kart-Vortex) in KFJ and Dennis Hauger ( CRG-TM) in 60Mini.
New Zealand's Marcus Armstrong put in another strong performance in KF but a 10-second penalty in the final relegated him from just outside the podium to 11th.
Viewers from 70 countries watched the live streaming as things became really tricky for the drivers on track and the result remained uncertain until the end.
The series is now at the half way point with two rounds remaining, in Muro Leccese on 12th April and Sarno on 26th April. Thanks to the incremental scoring system, many drivers can still aim to win this prestigious series.

Basz closes the gap and wins in KF
Once again the protagonists in KF were the Danish Nicklas Nielsen (Tony Kart-Vortex-Vega) and the Polish Karol Basz (Kosmic-Vortex). Nielsen, who was the pole-sitter, was overtaken by Basz during the first laps. The Polish kept the leadership until the end of the race, while Nielsen had to deal with the recovery of the Italian Matteo Viganò (Top Kart-Parilla). The latter started from the 11th slot of the grid and finished second, beating Nielsen into third.

Novalak still winning in KFJ
The British Clement Novalak (Tony Kart-Vortex-Vega) confirms the excellent shape of this first part of the season. He won again after his victory in the season-opener in Adria. The Brit had to hold off the American Logan Sargeant (FA Kart-Vortex-Vega) during the last laps, even though the latter spun at the penultimate lap, leaving the second position to the Belgian Ulysse De Pauw (Birel Art-Parilla-Vega). Sargeant was eventually third.
