First Winter Cup in Blue

Beitske Visser had already been at a Winter Cup, though not in KF3, three years ago and without any noteworthy results. She had already raced in KZ2 in Lonato, but it was last year, in the WSK Euro Series, with a final second place on top of it.

In 2011, Beitske has been at her first KZ2 Winter Cup, racing against most of the best kart drivers in 125cc gearbox. 2011 is a year in blue for Beitske, since blue is Praga’s colour that decorates her official Intrepid/TM, motorised by Tec-Sav. And on her debut with this colour that she really likes, the young Dutch treated herself a best time in timed qualifying, no less. Though she admitted that her starts in the heats were not perfect, Beitske was good at exploiting her burst of speed to remain in the top 5 and set again the best lap time during the race.

In the pre-final, the right option was chosen to race with slick tyres on a wet track that dried out over the course of the race. That allowed Beitske to move up after being pushed at the start of the race. 10th at the start of a rainy final race, she gave it all, but could not do better than 16th. Beitske was not much disappointed at the result, though, and remains focussed on her only goal, victory, to be ready for the second meeting of the season, the WSK Master Series in La Conca, at the end of February.
