Raucci in pole position at Sarno in KFJ

Alexander Vartanyan (Tony Kart / Vortex) took control in the first group of KF-Junior ahead of Dan Ticktum (Zanardi / Parilla) who was isolated, then Juan Correa (Energy / TM) and Max Fewtrell (FA Kart / Vortex ) took the lead, Devlin DeFrancesco (Tony Kart / Vortex) moved up to second position, and Enaam Ahmed (FA Kart / Vortex) put his nose in to 3rd place. Fewtrell led with 2” until the end, and Giuliano Raucci (Energy / TM) joined the top five. DeFrancesco accelerated and took 1st but Raucci was ahead a few seconds later and continued to lead the way with a lap of 1’08” 166, only 5/100 faster than DeFrancesco. Ticktum finished 3rd, Ahmed 4th and Fewtrell 5th.

Nothing important happened in the second group until Eliseo Martinez (LH / TM) took the lead about 3” from the end. Kush Maini (Tony Kart / TM), Logan Sargeant (FA Kart / Vortex) and Alex (DR / TM) were vying for second position, Felipe Drugovich (Tony Kart / TM) followed them closely thereafter, but Ye Yifei (ART GP / TM) improved on Martinez’s time. Mick Junior (Tony Kart / Vortex) was back in the top four. Sun Yue Yang (FA Kart / Vortex) gave everything on the last lap, but Sargeant and Benjamin Lessennes (Kosmic / Parilla) responded before Yifei eventually took the lead in the group with 1’08” 494, 43 thousandths from Sargeant, 74 thousandths from Lessennes and 82 thousandths from Yue Yang.

The difference of 0.328” between the two groups put Yifei in 12th place overall, while Raucci ensured pole position ahead of DeFrancesco and Ticktum.
