Part 2: The key topics of the race for
your articles and reports
A reference in international
events
The aura of the IAME INTERNATIONAL FINAL is expanding
year on year. The race is entered on the international
calendar of the CIK/FIA. The winner will not be allowed to
take the World Championship title because the event is
not officially a world championship. However, it’s similar in
several aspects, namely with its international scope, the
impressive number of entries and the quality of the grid
(drivers and teams), the performances of the karts, the
number of entry requests that the organiser had to turn
down or put on a waiting list… the automatic selection of
which the national champions benefit is the guarantee of a
high level of competition.
The contenders
The analysis of the field of this Final is not easy because
there are many favourites, and you can’t rule out the
likelihood of several surprises and revelations. That’s what
karting is all about, and it quickly brings established values
into question! Nevertheless, basing yourself on concrete
elements like the track records, there are some names
which are difficult to exclude at the time of prognostics.
Thus, four former winners will be present, all laureates of
the 2014 edition of the IAME INTERNATIONAL FINAL held
at Le Mans. Native of northern France, François Bécamel,
who won in X30 Senior in the Sarthe, showed that he is
still in great shape as he won this year the title of Belgian
champion. In 2014, two drivers were crowned equal, a rare
event, in X30 Master. We bet that the Australian Kip Foster
and the Brit Graham Hill (in no way related to the family of
F1 champions Damon and Graham) won’t want to share
the top of the podium this year. The Belgian Thierry Delré
is the only driver entered who has two victories at the IAME
INTERNATIONAL FINAL in X30 Shifter to his name (2012
and 2014, podium in 2013). He has also taken part in all the
Finals!
Amongst the drivers who shined in the X30 Europa
Challenge, we find the French Masters Pierre Allemand
and Nicolas Duchateau, looking for global glory after their
European success. In this same category, Chris Trott (UK),
Christophe Adams (B), Frenchmen Grégory Jolinet and
Gérard Cavalloni know the way to the European podium
and are all serious contestants for the top rung.
Mikko Laine finished 3rd in the IAME INTERNATIONAL
FINAL right alongside the winners last year. He will be
accompanied in the Master category by another Flying
Finn, Antti Ollikainen. Look out as well for the Italian Tino
Donadei, a regular of the event and always a formidable
adversary. Lastly, let’s place a few bets on the Swede
Thomas Annerhall.
The Europa Challenge was organised for the first time in Italy
this year. A Frenchman won in Castellatto di Branduzzo in
X30 Junior: Milane Pételet will be in Le Mans, aiming for the
double. Kenny Roosens and Gilles Magnus accompanied
him on the European podium. The latter also climbed the
IAME INTERNATIONAL FINAL’s podium in 2014.

Part 2: The key topics of the race for
your articles and reports
Still in Junior, watch out for American David Malukas,
the Irishman Kyle Connolly, of whom very good things
are said, and even the German Luka-Max Pierschke,
who is incredibly quick, not to forget the Russian Serguei
Travniko.
In Senior, you will have to look out for the German Dominik
Kulikowski, last year’s Master winner Graham Hill’s
protégé, the Swede Victor Oberg, who will benefit from the
support of Peter de Bruijn or even the Brit Oliver Hodgson,
terror of the PFI circuit. Watch out lastly for the Peruvian,
Taylor Greenfield, always quick but often unlucky.
The Belgian Benjamin Lessennes, 1st in the X30 Junior
Europa Challenge in 2013 but also 2nd in the IAME
INTERNATIONAL FINAL the following year in X30 Senior, is
a regular at very high level. Two other Belgians (at least) are
among the favourites in the Senior class: the top two in the
2014 X30 Junior Europa Challenge, Anthony Lambert and
Maxime Drion. The 2015 winner of the X30 Senior Europa
Challenge Kévin Breysse also became French champion
in the same category this season. His kart will bear #17 in
memory of his friend Jules Bianchi. The strong performance
of Alexis Castellon in Castelletto ended on the podium.
Lastly, still among the Seniors, a Frenchman by the name
of Vincent Fraïsse won both editions of the X30 Europa
Challenge, not to mention his two French champions’ titles
in the category… but he’s still chasing after a first success at
the IAME INTERNATIONAL FINAL! Sodikart driver, he lives
now in Dubai, where he works for the French manufacturer
with the former world champion David Terrien. In Le Mans,
he will accompany Frazer Rose from the United Arab
Emirates, who won his ticket for the final during the 1st
edition of the X30 UAE Challenge.
In mentioning Vincent Fraïsse, we think of the 24 Hours
of Karting at Le Mans, an event that contributed to his
revelation when he won it in 2009. Admittedly it was on the
Alain Prost Circuit, but at the wheel of a Sodi equipped with
a Parilla engine, thus IAME! “Monsieur Le Mans” of Karting,
Wilfrid Lecarpentier (X30 Master) counts 8 victories at the
greatest endurance race for competition karts in the world,
of which three were won with a Parilla engine.
All the drivers merit your attention,
but…
In Junior:
-n°218 Derek Morgan is the name of a character in
«Criminal Minds».
-n°60 Petr Ptacek Jr is the son of the chassis manufacturer
Praga, but he will be behind the wheel of a Formula K
chassis.
-n°13 will be at the start, just like in the Michel Vaillant comic,
thanks to Angus Fender (UK). His father, Neil, worked at
the 24 Hours of Le Mans for Dick Barbour Racing in 2001
and Reynard in 2002. He has also taken part 4 times at the
Le Mans Classic.
-n°27 Gilles Magnus (already mentioned higher up) has
the number made famous by Gilles Villeneuve and will race
on a… Formula Gilles chassis! This young Belgian is part of
the WRT Academy founded by the Audi GT team of fellow
countryman Vincent Vosse and of the RACB Junior Team.

Part 2: The key topics of the race for
your articles and reports
In Senior:
-n°220 Clément Seyler, double champion of the
Luxembourg in X30, has royal blood in his veins. He has
amongst his ancestors Louis XIV and Louis VI.
-n°121 found a good seat: Archie Tillett (UK) is in fact the
son of the creator of Tillett, maker of seats for karts.
In Master:
-n°516 Philippe Tutin (F) is the dean of the participants
at age of 60. He will be competing in the new Veterans
category.
(n°303), Florian (n°307) and Adrian (n°324) in Master, as
well as Alban (n°103) in Senior. Maybe you will discover
other family ties by talking with each other…
-The women in the race will compete in the Lady Cup. There
are five of them this year: Julia Hadley (n°72), a Brit who is
running in Master under the French flag, Léonie Claude (F/
n°71) and Maria Fernandez (Peru/n°77) in Junior, Nasha
Patel (Réunion/n°136) and Sophie Hofmann (D/n°148) in
Senior. Female drivers will be classified according to their
class results proportionate to the number of entrants in the
class.
In Super Shifter:
-n°412 Yohan Sousa is a compulsive big events racer.
Champion of the Portugal X30 Shifter, he took part in
September in the KZ2 International Supercup in Le Mans
(17th), then in the CIK FIA World KF Championship at La
Conca. The Final will be his third international competition
in a month.
Miscellaneous:
-Tadashi Sasaki is the boss of BirelART Asia Pacific, IAME
importer in Japan, organiser of the X30 Challenge in Japan
and owner of the Superwinforce chassis. He worked for a
time at Minardi F1 (the team that became Toro Rosso): We
find on the entry list five of his chassis in Junior, 3 in Senior
and 1 in Master.
-A family race: the Argentinian cousins Romano will be
running in numbers 89 and 90; in the Claude family, Léonie
is signed up in Junior (n°71) and Emile in Senior (n°145);
No less than four entries share the name Nerguti: Samy

Part 3: The X30 worldwide
The X30 pyramid
-X30 Europa Challenge at European level;
Born in the middle of the 2000s, the X30 was developed
around the world and diversified. The current range offers
karting drivers a “pyramid” that allows them to evolve
according to their age, and, from 15 years old, according to
their desire to drive a kart with or without a gearbox.
-Asia-Pacific Challenge;
-IAME Super American Cup as part of the Las Vegas
SKUSA Supernationals in the USA ;
-IAME INTERNATIONAL FINAL at the top of the X30 ladder.
The single make category has thus become a vast
community that groups drivers of all ages and from many
countries. That’s why we talk about the “X30 World”!
The range starts off with the Rookie and Cadet X30 (not
represented at the Final), for the younger ones. We then
move on to Junior, then Senior and Master, these three
classes sharing the same engine. Other thrills await those
who opt for the ultra fast Super Shifter with gearbox.
X30 races around the world
-club races and championships;
-Classic “must-do” events like the Kart mag Trophy in
France, which is providing winners with entries for the IAME
INTERNATIONAL FINAL;
-X30 National Challenge, Official National cups and
championships (X30 official titles are awarded by the
national Karting authority in some countries e.g. France,
Belgium, Australia, UK…). National champions get a
selection for the IAME INTERNATIONAL FINAL;
-Endurance races;

Part 4:
IAME INTERNATIONAL FINAL
Schedule
A total of 24 qualifying heats, 4 prefinals and 9 finals feature
on the 2015 IAME INTERNATIONAL FINAL’s timetable.
Before that, night qualifying sessions will take place on
Thursday from 20h00 to 22h15.
In Junior, Senior and Master, the top 33 classified drivers
after the heats will qualify for the Prefinal and the Final.
The next 34 drivers in the intermediate ranking will take
part in Final B. The winner of Final B will be qualified for
the Prefinal and the Final, keeping a chance of winning the
event overall (new in 2015).
Due to the massive entry in Junior and Senior, there will
be a Final C for these two classes. In X30 Super Shifter,
the entry is less than 34 so all the drivers will qualify for the
Prefinal and the Final.

Part 6: IAME
History
IAME today
IAME is the world leading Company in Karting engine
production, both for professional and hobby drivers. The
history, the numbers and almost 50 world titles confirm it.
Nowadays the Company produces 5 to 6 thousand engines
per year, with a potential productive capability of 9 thousand
units. The company has almost 60 years of history, 55
employees and a range of more than 30 engine variations.
IAME offers today a wide range of engines. Aside from the
different variations of the X30, we also find engines conform
to the international regulations of the CIK FIA: the KZ
Screamer and the Reedster KF and KF Junior, which have
been covered with glory over the last years in the “multibrand” championships:
In 1958 the first go-kart was built in the USA. Bruno Grana
in those years was working for Moto Parilla and when
he saw the go-kart, he suddenly fell in love, immediately
understanding its potential. Grana convinced Parilla to join
this new market. They launched the Parilla V11 and entered
the history of Karting. Some years later, together with his
colleague and friend Cesare Bossaglia, Grana established
Komet, a Company entirely dedicated to the world of
karting, while almost simultaneously, Parilla launched the
TG 14. This engine was present in competition for more
than two decades.
1968 was the decisive year, Parilla and Komet joined
together into IAME, «Italian American Motor Engineering»
which name comes from their close relation with the United
States. With the acquisition of the brands BM and Sirio,
Bruno Grana put the basis of what is still today the asset of
a worldwide known Company.
2014: Callum Ilott, KF European champion
2014: Rick Dreezen, KZ1 European champion
2013: Alessio Lorandi, KF Junior World champion
2012: Bas Lammers, KZ1 World Cup winner
2012: Ben Barnicoat, KF2 World Cup winner
2011: Nyck de Vries, KF1 World champion

2010: Kevin Rowland, Super KF World Cup winner
2009: David da Luz, KF2 World Cup winner
2009: Nyck de Vries, KF3 Junior World Cup winner
From 2009 to 2015: 7 Le Mans 24 Hours for karts overall
victories for Sarthe RTKF and Parilla KF2 engines.

Part 7: The circuit
Alongside the legendary Alain Prost Circuit, which
welcomed the world championships in 1978, ‘83 and ‘91,
the Automobile Club de l’Ouest has built a new international
circuit. 1384 metres long, it has the distinction of running
counter clockwise. The first big event organised on this
layout was the 28th edition of the 24 Hours of Karting in
August 2013.
The queen category of KZ karts with gearboxes crowned its
2015 world champion at this ultra modern circuit on the 13th
of September.
The International IAME Final will make their second
appearance there after the success of the 2014 edition.
Fastest laps recorded in the 2014
finals:
X30 Junior : Oscar Piastri 55’’761
