The championship leaders after the first round in La Conca are ready to face the challenge with some new protagonists joining in at Sarno’s second round of the WSK Super Master Series. Over 290 drivers entered the competition marking the 20th year of WSK Promotion.

Sarno (ITA), 05.02.2025
The second round of the WSK Super Master Series is set to take place at the International Circuit of Sarno, with over 290 entered drivers promising even more excitement after the successful season opener at La Conca. This event will see the return of champions seeking to solidify their position, as well as the emergence of new talent eager to leave their mark in categories ranging from the junior MINI and OKNJ classes to the highly competitive international OKJ, OK, and KZ2 categories.

WSK Promotion turns 20.
Exactly 20 years ago, on February 5th, 2006, at the International Circuit La Conca, the first event organized by WSK Promotion took place, giving life to the project conceived by Luca De Donno. From that year on, the championship then called "WSK International Series" and developed over four rounds (La Conca, Lonato, Mariembourg and Jesolo) kicked off the fantastic journey that, from 2006 to 2024, has seen WSK karting accumulate a total of 170 events with 34,345 participants.
Already in 2006, there were the first champions who contributed to creating the current pathway from WSK to the pinnacle of motorsport and Formula 1. The champions of 2006 were Valtteri Bottas in the 100 Formula A, the late Jules Bianchi in the 125 ICC, Will Stevens in the 100 ICA Junior, and Miquel Julia Perello in the 100 ICA. Remarkably, out of the 20 drivers on the Formula 1 grid today, 15 have come through the WSK series

The situation after the first round of 2025.
The focus in Sarno will be on the numerous champions competing at the International Circuit Napoli. They will aim to prevail in this second challenge of the year, as well as the many emerging drivers determined to leave their mark in their respective categories, from the junior MINI and OKNJ classes to the highly competitive international OKJ, OK, and KZ2 categories.
