Joseph Bianchini (2012-2025)
It is with great sadness that Karting Australia shares the news of the passing of New South Wales junior driver Joseph Bianchini.
Joseph, 13, was transported to Griffith Base Hospital in the early hours of Saturday morning after experiencing a sudden deterioration in his health. Later that day he was flown to Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick where he sadly passed away on Monday, August 18.
Joseph was a familiar and much-loved young competitor in our sport, racing in the Cadet and Junior categories across the country. His energy, passion and friendly nature touched many within the karting community.
On behalf of everyone at Karting Australia, and the broader karting community, we send our heartfelt condolences to Adrian, Maria and Allegra along with the extended Bianchini family and friends during this very difficult time.
Details of Joseph’s funeral arrangements will be shared once they are available.
