Genk: Battle of titans announced in KZ

Although there are 15 drivers that can mathematically win the European Championship, there are really only six favourites in the KZ field. We may well see a duel between the Dutch drivers Max Verstappen (CRG-TM-B’stone), who dominated the opening round at Wackersdorf and is representative of the new wave of karting stars, and Bas Lammers (Intrepid- TM-B’stone) who is a major figure in the discipline with a strong track record. For his 15 years, Max has strong advantages: very high performance since the beginning of the year, perfect knowledge of the track and fighting spirit. Almost twice as old at 28 years, a triple European Champion and the winner of the World Cup in 2012, Lammers has always impressed with his ability to exponentially improve his driving and his equipment on special occasions. But for the sake of the uncertainty of the race let’s hope for challenges from other prestigious competitors like the Italian Marco Ardigo (Tony Kart-Vortex-B’stone), a fearsome third and nine points behind the leader, or the French driver Anthony Abbasse (Sodi-TM-B’stone) in search of an international title, the Briton Jordon Lennox-Lamb (CRG-Parilla-B’stone) who won the KZ2 World Cup last year, and the third Dutchman Jorrit Pex (CRG-TM-B’stone), the defending champion.
