Looking forward to 2012, Super One Series is pleased to reveal a host of new prizes, and confirmation of existing ones for the new season. Already the prize fund for 2011 is around £60,000 in cash and vouchers, and that doesnt include the five free entries to the just held Rotax Grand Finals. Congratulations to our British team, who put on a great show proving the racing in the Super One is as competitive as anywhere in the world, if not better.
For 2012, the winners in Rotax Max, Junior Max and Max 177/Masters will each receive a free entry to the 2012 Rotax Max Challenge Grand Finals, to be held at Portimao in Portugal. In addition each will receive a prize of an engine, and so will the top Rookie in each of these classes plus MiniMax, all courtesy of the Super One and JAG, Rotax distributors for the UK. All Rookie overall winners will also enjoy a full factory tour of the Mercedes GP Petronas F1 team.
In addition, and new for 2012, the top Max 177 Rookie driver at each round will receive a £300 cash prize and the overall 177 Rookie £500. And the best overall Max 177/Masters driver in the series will be awarded £1500, the second placed £750 and third will get £500.
In Formula KGP the top three in the series will each receive a Formula Renault test, and the KF3, Junior Max and Junior TKM champions all have a Ginetta G40 test lined up for them, subject to age. Another benefit for all competitors is a great discount package from Alamo, one of the biggest car and van rental companies.
Subject to entries remaining similar to 2011, the ABkC in conjunction with its valued tyre suppliers Dunlop, Bridgestone, Maxxis/Tal-Ko and Mojo/JAG will award approximately £19,000 in cash prizes, and this will be matched by the Super One Series in cash and vouchers. Surely nothing else in the UK can match the prestige and prizes of the Super One Series. The Ginetta MSA British Kart Championship is confirmed with over 15 drivers already signed up for the series. Thank you to all supporters, together lets make it a great season.
Super One Series will be exhibiting at KartMania and the Autosport International Racing Car Shows, taking registrations and providing information. The new on-line registration and race entry system will be launched and in future all this will be possible on-line including payments.
