Pittingale wins Easykart World Finals

Barney Pittingale was crowned as the Champion at the Easy Kart World Finals in Cervia at the weekend. The World finals are held every year and consist of all EasyKart franchises throughout the world including USA, Colombia, Venezuela, Poland, Russia, Germany, N Cyprus and of course the hosts Italy.

Pittingale drove a faultless race from Pole and totally dominated the race. Behind fellow Brit and 2007 UK Champion Harry Cockill followed Pittingale home in 2nd after a poor start from 3rd on the grid. Edward Cockill was in third with 2 laps to go but backmarkers and a sprained wrist were too much and put pay to a dream 1-2-3 for the UK as he arrived home in 4th. Firas Bilbesi from the UK team came home in 7th with fellow team mate Tim Hill retiring on lap 12.

In Junior’s UK wild card entry Alex Lynn was set for a podium finish but on lap 9 another driver crashed into the rear of his kart damaging his exhaust and caused his retirement a real shame after a fantastic performance from the youngster.

All in all a fantastic performance from all of the Easykart UK team which consisted of Barney Pittingale, Harry Cockill, Edward Cockill, Firas Bilbesi, Tim Hill, Tom Thompson, Steve Youle, Mark Elder and Alex Lynn.
