Karts take over downtown. The most important authorities of international Motorsport, together with some protagonists of the world of motor racing, joined Kart in Piazza (Kart in Town) on the closing day of the 2013 event. Kart in Piazza has been conceived as an event which aims at making youngsters paying more attention to road safety issues. The road safety campaign is promoted by ACI (Automobile Club of Italy) and it is part of the “Action for Road Safety” campaign promoted by FIA. WSK Promotion joined the campaign, taking part in the event of Lecce. With its participation, WSK aims at pointing out how important safety issues are also in top level sports events.

Jean Todt was welcomed by the ACI President Angelo Sticchi Damiani. There were, of course, many protagonists of motor racing such as Dindo Capello, 3-time winner of the 24hs of Le Mans, the runner up of the Superstock 600 European Championship, Alessandro Nocco, and the winner of the WSK Euro Series in KZ2, Riccardo Negro.
