Ardigò & Midrla Lead The Way In Germany


  13 July 2014
 

Tony Kart's Marco Ardigò and Birel's Jan Midrla have jumped to the top of the standings in KZ and KZ2 respectively at the Eureopean Championship round at Wackersdorf, Germany. Illya Zamula is on pole in Academy Trophy. However, the competition is close, with 12 different winners across the 20 heat races that were held overnight.

KZ

Marco Ardigò (Tony Kart-Vortex-Bridgestone) won both qualifying heats, beating home fastest qualifier Rick Dreezen (Zanardi-Parilla-Bridgestone) and Bas Lammers (FK-Parilla-Bridgestone). This slightly extands the Italian's championship lead, so he is now definitely the one to beat. Despite the same top-3 result, the two races were very different. In the first race, Ardigò had to deal with Lammers. However Lammers was was overtaken by Dreezen in the last laps, thanks to a good recovery from the Zanardi driver after dropping back at the start. In the second race, Felice Tiene (CRG-Maxter-Bridgestone) took the lead at the start, but Ardigò was quickly through on lap two. Tiene was then overtaken by Lammers and by Dreezen. The latter grabbed the second position thanks to an overtaking manoeuvre during the last lap.

The Prefinal starting grid will be as per the ranking below.

KZ2

Fifteen heat races were required to cut the 64-kart field down to 28, plus those who will transfer from the Last Chance race.

The Czech Jan Midrla (Birel-TM-Bridgestone) won four heats to grab pole position for the Prefinal. Next to him is fastest qualifier Simone Brenna (TB Kart-Modena-Bridgestone), with three victories. Dutch drivers fill row two, Finn Kooijman (CRG-TM-Bridgestone) ahead of Ryan Van Der Burgt (DR-TM-Bridgestone), both with a victory each.

Marcel Muller (DR-Modena-Bridgestone) won three heats but a retirement in the other drops the Austrian to 6th behind the Swedish Douglas Lundberg (Alpha-Parilla-Bridgestone), who won once. Single victories also went to the German Maik Siebecke (CRG-Modena-Bridgestone) and the Dutch Dylan Davies (DR-TM-Bridgestone).

Italian Andrea Dalè (CRG-Maxter-Bridgestone) retains the championship lead, but will start the pre-final 16th. A couple of thirds were offset by a 17th in his second last heat.
