Driving for Brand Racing on a Sodi chassis, Jakob Robinson (aged 18) defended his title and secured the UAE Rotax Max Challenge DD2 Championship by 8 points following a series of consistent results which saw him finish the season with 2 Round wins and 5 podium finishes (4 second places and 1 third place).
Jakob adds this years’ DD2 title to the one he won in 2017/18 along with the 2016/17 UAE RMC Seniors Vice Championship and UAE X30 Seniors Championship.

Lachlan’s performance throughout the season enabled him to secure the Senior title with a round to spare, eventually finishing the season some 106 points clear of his nearest competitor.
Like his elder brother, Lachlan adds the 2018/19 UAE Rotax Max Challenge Senior Max title to his 2017/18 UAE RMC Junior title, 2017/18 and 2016/17 UAE X30 Junior title’s and the 2016/17 UAE RMC Junior Vice Championship.

The brothers Robinson have secured 7 UAE National Titles and 2 National Vice Championships, which is not too bad considering they only took up karting some 5 years ago.
