Excellent results have been obtained in KZ2 especially with Simone Cunati, who run his maiden race with the new team Modena Kart on CRG-Tm and has been very quick since the beginning, eventually taking a good victory in Race-2. Filippo Berto, in KZ2 for Modena Kart on CRG-Tm, also claimed a great podium in the first final in Lonato. Viti Racing\u2019s assisted driver Marco Pastacaldi on Maranello-Tm was unfortunately involved in a nasty incident in one qualifying heat when he was getting some positions back. The best wishes for a prompt recovery go to Marco.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">A good race was completed by Giuseppe Palomba on Intrepid-Tm at the South Garda Karting Circuit of Lonato, especially considering the championship: he was seventh in Race-1 and fourth in Race-2. Some setup problems cost Palomba that tenth of a second that would have allowed him to fight for the victory, but the double result in Lonato allows the Italian to keep the second place in the standings at 101 points, that is 25 short of Pollini. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Among the finalists assisted by Viti Racing, Alessio Baldi on Intrepid-Tm was 11th in Race-1 and Ricccardo Melas 22nd in Race-2 on Sodikart-Tm.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Nicola Bartolini and Luigi Di Lorenzo could not qualify for the final due to several problems and unlucky episodes, as both retired from the second chance race.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Complete results are available at www.acisport.it\/it\/CIK\/home<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">The next racing appointment is the European KZ2 Championship that will take place on July 15th at the South Garda Karting circuit in Lonato.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;15px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Italian ACI Karting Championship, KZ2, Lonato, 01.07.2018<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Simone Cunati, Race-1 P8, Race-2 P1<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Filippo Berto, Race-1 P3, Race-2 P7<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Giuseppe Palomba, Race-1 P7, Race-2 P4<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Alessio Baldi, Race-1 P11, Race-2 DNF<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Riccardo Melas, Race-1 DNF, Race-2 P22<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Nicola Bartolini, Second Chance race P14<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Luigi Di Lorenzo, Second Chance race DNF<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Marco Pastacaldi, Heats incident<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;6px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Viti Racing had a very positive weekend at the World Circuit La Conca in Muro Leccese during the opener of the Italian ACI Karting KZ2 and KZ3 Championship.
