Kart: Parolin celebrates WSK Euro Series titles at Cremona
Reportagem: Parolin Motorsport Srl

Parolin ended the WSK Euro Series at Cremona with major championship success across several categories, led by Qarrar Firhand (Ward Racing) securing the OK title and Elton Hedfors (Modena Kart) winning the OK-N Junior crown. The Mini U10 Championship remains subject to appeal, but all three leading contenders used Parolin chassis, while the top three in the OK-N Junior standings also raced with Parolin equipment.

On track, Blake Hsueh finished 4th in Mini U10 for Parolin Motorsport, Lenox Lockhart was 9th in Mini Gr3, Jiang Houzai (LA Motorsport) finished 2nd in KZ2, and Isaac El Haouti (BabyRace Driver Academy) won a dramatic Mini U10 Final.

The final round of the WSK Euro Series took place at the Cremona circuit in very hot conditions, with temperatures in the high 30s during the event and hot, humid weather for the Finals. Saturday's OK and OK-Junior Prefinals were affected by rain, adding another challenge before the decisive races.

In OK, Firhand (Ward Racing) completed an exceptional championship campaign. After being fastest in Qualifying, winning all his heats and taking victory in the Prefinal, he started the Final from pole position. He finished 2nd in the race, a result that comfortably secured the WSK Euro Series title with more than twice the points of his nearest rival.

OK-N Junior also brought championship success for the Parolin package. Hedfors ran strongly throughout the weekend and finished 3rd in the Final, enough to secure the title. John McLellan (Ward Racing) finished 4th after another competitive performance, while Luigi D'Ascoli (Modena Kart) was 7th in the Final and secured 3rd in the Championship. The result confirmed a Parolin top three in the final OK-N Junior standings, with Modena Kart and Ward Racing both contributing to the success.

Mini U10 produced one of the most dramatic races of the weekend. Burgess had been fastest in Qualifying for Parolin Motorsport and crossed the line first in the Final, but a three-second penalty dropped him to 10th on the provisional results sheet, with the decision under appeal. Hsueh, who had been fastest in his Qualifying session and won Prefinal B from pole, finished 4th after fighting at the front throughout the race. Leo Simone also reached the Final and finished 14th. The Final victory went to El Haouti, while Jayden Francisco (BabyRace Driver Academy) finished 2nd and Sasha Miras Y Munoz (BabyRace Driver Academy) was 3rd after leading the field from pole.

In Mini Gr3, Lockhart delivered the best Parolin Motorsport result, gaining six places in the Final to finish 9th. Alexandr Machac also reached the Final and finished 17th. The wider Parolin group remained strongly represented at the front, with Nahyl El Gahoudi (BabyRace Driver Academy) finishing 3rd in the Final and ending the series as Vice-Champion, while Pedro Cueto (BabyRace Driver Academy) took 5th.

In KZ2, Houzai produced one of the strongest Final performances on Parolin equipment. After building steadily through the weekend, he started the Final from 6th and gained four places to finish 2nd, securing 4th in the Championship.

In OK-Junior, Antonio Pizzonia (Ward Racing) finished 7th after starting from 10th on the grid, while Max Felde (Ward Racing) was 14th after progressing well through the Prefinal.

Marco Parolin said:

"It was a very positive end to the WSK Euro Series for Parolin. We are very pleased to see Qarrar and Ward Racing win the OK Championship, and Elton and Modena Kart take the title in OK-N Junior, where the top three in the standings were all on Parolin chassis. Mini U10 is still subject to appeal, but whatever the final outcome, the strength of the Parolin package was clear with the leading championship contenders all using our chassis. Blake, Lenox and Alexandr also worked well for Parolin Motorsport, and Jiang's podium in KZ2 with LA Motorsport was another excellent result. It is a strong confirmation of the competitiveness of our chassis across many categories."

Parolin Motorsport will now turn its attention to the Champions of the Future Euro Series at Kristianstad in Sweden from 22nd to 25th July, where the team will look to carry this momentum into the next stage of the international season.
