The 24 Hours Karting of Italy organized by CRG has confirmed itself as one of the most anticipated and spectacular events in the Endurance panorama dedicated to Rental Karting. On March 14th and 15th, the event attracted 37 teams and over 200 drivers from all over the world, transforming the 7 Laghi Kart circuit, in Castelletto di Branduzzo, into a true international meeting point for enthusiasts of the discipline.
More than an Endurance karting race, the event once again proved to be a moment of sharing and passion, where sportsmanship and the desire to live a unique experience played a central role over the pure result. The organization managed by CRG guaranteed the usual high quality standards, with increasingly efficient track services and broad and engaging media coverage, capable of following every phase of the competition. The 2026 edition also had a long live streaming broadcast that brought the images of the race, through hundreds of shares, to every part of the world. Making this year’s edition even more intense and spectacular was the rain, a constant presence from the start to the finish, which accompanied teams and drivers, testing their skills, strategy and endurance throughout the 24 hours of the race.
Crucial, especially due to the difficult track conditions, was the reliability and the technical level of the CRG Centurion assigned by draw to the teams to ensure maximum fairness among the participating teams. The karts used once again proved to be high performing, fun to drive even when the track conditions were at times at the limit of practicability, and contributed to offering all teams an intense and emotion-filled driving experience for the entire duration of the race.
As for the sporting report, the well-deserved victory went to the team Garage Motorsport, composed of Matteo Gasparini, Sergio Campana, Tommaso Morlacchi, Enrico Pavesi and Diego Colella who, starting from seventh place obtained in qualifying, managed to climb up to the leading positions and secure a victory almost at the photo finish, ahead of Team Tec Tav by just 29”. The team of Enrico Manzoni, Andrea Tonoli, Patrick Fraboni and Luigi Vercelloni only gave way at the end after an extraordinary race and defended second place, finishing just 15” ahead of the very strong crew of Pomposa Dream Team, composed of Andrea Rocco, Gioele Bondi, Giammaria Compagnucci, Massimiliano Marchesini, Krzysztof Arkadiusz Severi, Giampaolo Quaquarelli and Alberto Vignocchi. Pomposa Dream Team celebrates its 9th participation in the event with another podium, also earning the PRO Superpole in the morning with Krzysztof Arkadiusz. In 4th place finished another team that was a great protagonist of the event: the Italian – English crew Zena Maddog, which finished on the same lap as the winners, just over 1’ behind. Following, completing the top 5 was the team KHB Open Trottle, which finished ahead of the Chinese crew Forza Cina Corri. The battle for the top positions was wide open throughout the race in the PRO category, with mistakes made in turn by all teams, changes at the front and great comebacks entrusted to wet weather specialists and the strategies of the Team Managers. In some phases of the race the Slow procedure was also used and under the checkered flag, as a testament to the show seen on track, the first 4 teams crossed the finish line on the same lap.
In the SILVER category, instead, the victory went to the team MLS Racing (after having conquered the SILVER Superpole), composed of the drivers Martin Sekanina, Maxmilian Mac, Jakub Vavrecka and Adrien Moskor, authors of a solid performance that allowed them to finish with a margin of as many as 7 laps over their pursuers. A significant margin, built thanks to good race management in all its phases and the absence of mistakes, so much so that without the 5 additional post stops imposed on the Silver teams, the team from the Czech Republic could have fought for the overall victory. Behind them, completing the podium were the Blue Racing Team, formed by Gabriele Oprandi, Riccardo Oprandi, Mirko Marchetti, Costantino Peroni and Marco Paschina and the team Let’s see what happens, brought to the race by Timothy Darlow, Steve Steward, Danny Andrew and Tonino Micciche. The Silver podium remained open until the final hours of the race also thanks to the good performance and high pace of the two crews of Carloni Racing, which finished in 4th and 5th place. Also positive was the race of MGS Folgore, 6th classified ahead of STOP Racing, Kartisti Esauriti Original, Blu Garage and Chovtrans Frenkart. The 2026 edition is thus archived confirming the event among the most spectacular of International Rental and the CRG Centurion karts among the most appreciated by enthusiasts of this type of racing. A great merit for the success of the event also goes to the organizational machine of CRG and, in particular, to the technical staff, which managed the 37 teams on track and the 20 hours of rain in an impeccable way.
