The third edition of the WSK Super Cup is set to take place with a full roster of drivers in the single-round event at the Franciacorta Karting Track. This race will also count for the Italian KZN Championship and the ACI Karting National Trophy for the MINI, OK-N, and OK-N Junior categories.
Drivers from 31 countries in MINI. Baby Raikkonen present too.
In the first two editions held at La Conca, the WSK Super Cup allowed many young talents in the MINI categories to showcase their skills. On this occasion in Franciacorta, the top contenders of the season in the MINI Gr.3 and Under 10 categories are also present, with strong participation from abroad, featuring drivers from 31 nationalities and 4 continents. Also competing is Robin Raikkonen, the son of Finnish former F1 world champion Kimi Raikkonen.
An even richer third edition.
This third edition also includes, in addition to the MINI category, the two new federal categories, OKN and OKNJ, valid for the National Trophy. However, this year’s program has been further enriched with the KZN shifter karts, featuring the top competitors of the season who have participated in at least two races in the Italian Zone Cup. They are now competing for the ACI Karting Italian Championship titles in the Rookie, Under, Over and Over 50 categories.
The winners of the most recent editions.
In the WSK Super Cup, victories in the MINI category have gone to drivers who then continued their rise to higher categories. In 2023, the Australian Sebastian Eskandari-Marandi won the MINI Under 10, and the Turkish driver Iskender Zulfikari won the MINI Gr.3. In 2022, the MINI winner was Iacopo Martinese. In the KZN, the reigning Italian champions are Antonio Piccioni in the Under category and Riccardo Nalon in the Over category.
