MURO LECCESE (LE), 30 JANUARY 2015
THE CHALLENGE IN QUALIFYING IS GETTING HEATED
AT LA CONCA.
The first day of of the WSK Champions Cup was full of
unexpected results at La Conca. On the circuit in Muro
Leccese (Lecce, Italy), which is hosting the first out of two
rounds of the kart racing series promoted by WSK
Promotion, the qualifying session finished with lots of
surprising performances. The first day was, as usual,
mainly dedicated to the set-up of the karts, but tomorrow
the race will move into top gear: at the end of the
weekend, the first points of this two-round event will be
awarded. In the WSK Champions Cup are racing the
international categories KF and KF Junior and the midget
category 60 Mini. All the Finals are scheduled on Sunday
st
1 February: everybody is trying to score the best result
possible before the second and decisive round which will
th
end next Sunday 8 February.
TOM BALE HAS A GREAT START IN KF.
Everybody expected the great performance of the two
favourite drivers, but qualifying had another and
unexpected protagonist in KF: with his 46”393 the
English Tom Bale (FA Alonso-Vortex-Vega) was the
fastest, 117 milliseconds faster than the Danish Nicklas
Nielsen (Tony Kart-Vortex-Vega), the favourite together
with the Polish Karol Basz (Kosmic-Vortex-Vega). The
first duel between Nielsen and Basz was won by the
Danish, given that the driver from Krakow only set the
sixth time of the day, 0”354 behind Bale. The fight for the
top positions has become absolutely uncertain thanks to
the great debut of the Italian Leonardo Lorandi (Tony
Kart-Vortex-Vega) and of the Danish Casper Roes
Andersen (FA Alonso-Vortex-Vega). The gap between
these drivers and the top position are very narrow, within
3 tenths of a second from the fastest lap: Lorandi and
Andersen placed third and fourth respectively, right
ahead of the English Max Fewtrell (FA Alonso-VortexVega). Tomorrow's heats are going to be thrilling in KF.

Kart-Vortex-Vega). The competition is going to be tough
tomorrow, and the tenth position of the Malaysian
Muizzudin Abdul Gafar (CRG-Vortex-Vega), the winner
of last year's WSK Champions Cup in 60 Mini, says it
all. This is another good reason to follow tomorrow's
heats, where other rookies might achieve important
results.
READY FOR THE ASSAULT ON THE 60 MINI.
No qualifying sessions today for the 60 Mini, because
the timing sessions are scheduled for tomorrow
morning, open to drivers aged 10. Timing said that the
Italian Rocco Negro (Top Kart-LKE-Vega), Giuseppe
Fusco (Lenzo-LKE-Vega) and Leonardo Marseglia
(CRG-LKE-Vega) performed well: they were at the top
of the ranking in the several sessions today, all fighting
with the Norwegian Dennis Hauger (CRG-LKE-Vega)
and the Italian Mattia Michelotto (Top Kart-ParillaVega), Luigi Coluccio and Marzio Moretti (both on Tony
Kart-LKE-Vega).

CHRISTIAN LUNDGAARD LEADS IN KF JUNIOR.
The Danish Christian Lundgaard (Tony Kart-VortexVega) and the Venezuelan Sebastian Fernandez (ExpritVortex-Vega) were the fastest in KF Junior. The gap
between the two drivers is of only 99 milliseconds, with
Lundgaard leading the pack in a category crammed with
new talented drivers coming from the 60 Mini. The Italian
Lorenzo Colombo (Tony Kart-LKE-Vega) and the
Russian Ivan Shvetsov (Tony Kart-Vortex-Vega) are just
behind the leading pair, with very narrow gaps. Fifth
position for the Italian Davide Lombardo (Exprit-VortexVega), followed by the English Clement Novalak (Tony
