Beaming winners at the German Kart Championship

The conditions at the finale of the German Kart Championship in Kerpen couldn’t have been any better. The drivers of all three grade series fought for the championship titles in bright sunshine. In the end, Alexander Schmitz (DSKM), Bent Viscaal (DJKM) and Richard Verschoor (DKM) prevailed.

During the first weekend of May, the kick-off to the German Kart Championship season 2015 took place in Wackersdorf. After that, the participants from more than 20 nations travelled to Genk (Belgium), Ampfing and Oschersleben. The big finale now took place on the 1.107m long Erftlandring in Kerpen.
In great autumn weather, the fights for the title were still open in all three classes which promised two exciting racing days. In front of filled-up spectator seats the drivers showed hard but fair fights. In the end, the titles were won by Alexander Schmitz (DSKM), Bent Viscaal (DJKM) and Richard Verschoor (DKM).

Series coordinator Stefan Wagner came to a completely positive conclusion on Sunday: “We can be very content with the course of the season. It’s been a lot of fun and the narrow title decisions underline the power density in our classes. I want to thank all drivers, teams, organizers and hosts for their commitment. The feedback among the paddocks is very positive. In 2016 a new era is going to begin due to the OK-engines, which we’re really looking forward to.”
