After the stunning season 2013, the time came for CRG and its drivers to receive the official awards by the international sportive authority for the results scored last year.

Following the awards given by FIA a few weeks ago in Paris, CIK-FIA and its President Shaikh Abdulla Bin Isa Al-Khalifa have celebrated the karting champions in the prize ceremony organized by WSK Promotion in the fascinating Spazio Antologico of the East End Studios in Milan.

CRG and the brands connected to Tinini Group monopolized the scene of the ceremony. The highest number of applauses went to the young Dutch Max Verstappen, who has been the absolute protagonist of the season with the victories in the KZ World Championship, in the KZ and KF European Championships and the third place in the KF World Championship. His British team mate at CRG, Jordon Lennox-Lamb, was also celebrated for his third place in the KZ World Championship and the other Briton, Tom Joyner, for winning the KF World Championship on Zanardi. The Norwegian driver Emil Antonsen on DR got the award reserved to the winner of the KZ2 European Championship instead.

CRG and Tinini Group collected therefore a lot of trophies in Milan, which confirmed the superiority shown on track at all European circuits, as well as on the Bahrain racetrack, where the competitive qualities of CRG, Zanardi and DR chassis turned out to be victorious in all occasions.
