MARKAS AND VANESA SILKUNAI STAR IN AL FORSAN. SCHILLACI RETURNS FROM INJURY AT SARNO

Last Tuesday at Al Forsan, Markas Silkunas and Vanesa Silkunaite scored excellent results in the Champions of the Future Academy Program finals.
In the weekend at Sarno, Daniele Schillaci returned to racing after months of injury, showing a great performance in the Ayrton Senna Kart Trophy.

Vanesa Silkunaite (P5 in the OK-N Junior category at Al Forsan)
The thirteen-year-old Lithuanian has always been one of the fastest girls on track across the weekend. In Final 1, she crossed the finish line in P14, but was later disqualified due to an incident. She made up for it in Final 2, where she earned an excellent P5, the best classified girl. Vanesa has been competitive in every session, so she can be satisfied with her season finale.

Markas Silkunas (Winner in the OK-N category at Al Forsan)
The fifteen-year-old Lithuanian has always been a protagonist across the weekend. He was very fast right from the Heats, where he always raced in the leading pack. After a good P4 in Final 1, Markas managed to get a great victory in Final 2. For once, luck turned on his side after a difficult season, and he finally got what he had often came close to. The result meant he earned second place in the championship, an excellent boost of confidence towards the 2025 season.

Daniele Schillaci (P7 in the OK-N category at Sarno)
The fifteen-year-old from Ragusa returned to racing after a months-long injury. To ensure a great comeback, he switched from the Lenzokart to the Parolin equipment.
He started from P17 in Final 1, but with a great start he managed to grab P8 at the flag. Starting P8 in a full wet Final 2, Daniele lapped with extreme consistency and crossed the finish line in seventh position. Daniele classified P7 in the overall standings, a great sign towards a promising 2025 season.
