Dreezen gives the chase to the title

Marco Ardigò  (Tony Kart-Vortex-Bridgestone) arrives in Sweden eager to take the leadership back, after the Belgian Rick Dreezen (Zanardi-Parilla-Bridgestone) took it in Germany. The Italian strongly wants to add another prestigious title to his already long lists of awards and, above all, he wants to forget the technical failure which obliged him to pull over during the Final in Wackersdorf. Dreezen, however, will fight hard to keep the lead: he will have to keep at bay lots of big names taking part in the KZ championship. Among them the Belgian Jonathan Thonon (Praga-Parilla-Bridgestone), third of the standing and the winner of the last round, and the Dutch Bas Lammers (FK-Parilla-Bridgestone), he, too, on the podium in Germany.

Juodvirsis is the favourite in the race for the title

Also the Lithuanian Simas Juodvirsis (Energy-Maxter-Bridgestone) will try to conquer the title keeping the lead of the KZ2 Championship: his most dangerous rival is the Italian Andrea Dalè (CRG-Maxter-Bridgestone), who achieved a poor performance in Wackersdorf and did not score any points. Thanks to his 'hat-trick' in Belgium, the Italian driver can still aim at the title. The third of the standing, the Czech Jan Midrla (Birel-TM-Bridgestone), still stands a chance, even though he needs to score lots of points if he wants to haul himself up to the top of the Championship. Drivers such as the Danish Andreas Hansen (Tony Kart-Vortex-Bridgestone) and the Swedish Douglas Lundberg (Alpha-Parilla-Bridgestone) - always competitive in the previous rounds - can still hit the target.

Ahmed defends his leadership

In KFJ the British Enaam Ahmed (FA-Vortex-Vega) and the American Devlin Defrancesco (Tony Kart-Vortex-Vega) lead the standing separated only by a point. They will try to pull away  in the Championship before the final sprint on schedule at the end of August in England. Their most dangerous rivals are  the Swedish Anton Haga (Kosmic-LKE-Vega), who will be driving on his home track, and the American Logan Sargeant (FA-Vortex-Vega).
