Karting

Karting is a motorsport involving small, four-wheeled open vehicles called karts that race on scaled-down or full-size circuits.

Considered the most accessible form of four-wheeled motorsport, karting serves as the entry point for many racing careers. Children as young as 5 can begin competing, making it the traditional first step for future racing champions. Many Formula One stars, including Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen, began their careers in karts.

Karts range from recreational models that reach modest speeds to professional superkarts capable of exceeding 100 mph. Competitions include sprint races, endurance events, and can take place on indoor or outdoor tracks. This affordable, relatively safe motorsport teaches fundamental racing skills that transfer to higher racing categories.
