Gunskirchen, Austria, April 29, 2022 – The annual highlight of the Rotax karting season, the Rotax MAX Challenge Grand Finals will take place this year in Portimão, Portugal from November 19th – 26th, 2022 and the Rotax Team is already in full progress for the preparation of the event.
As already announced at the prize giving ceremony at the RMCGF 2021 in Bahrain, this year’s biggest karting challenge, the RMC Grand Finals 2022, will take place the 4th time at the Kartodromo Internacional Algarve in Portimao, Portugal. 400 drivers from all over the world – the best drivers of the Rotax MAX Challenge and E-Kart Championships – will meet from 19th to 26th of November for the annual showdown to crown the champion of the respective categories.
This year, the RMCGF has again a special attraction: after introducing the E-Kart senior as a new category to the RMCGF in 2021, now the Rotax Project E20 Junior category will be added to the schedule to crown the first Rotax Project E20 Junior Champion in Portugal. The qualification for this category is in full progress at the E20 Tour events throughout 2022. More information about the E20 Tour is available on the website: https://www.rotax-kart.com/de/Racing/E-Racing/Project-E20
“We are excited to return to the Kartodromo Internacional do Algarve for the 2022 RMC Grand Finals, which is a long-term partner of us and offers a proven track with perfect infrastructure for this exceptional event”, said Peter Oelsinger, General Manager BRP-Rotax / Member of the Management Board, Vice President Sales, Marketing RPS-Business & Communications. “This year we have added another category to the setup, the Rotax Project E20 Junior, which will be supported by our chassis partner Sodikart. It is an honour for us to be supported by our chassis partners for so many years and at this point I would like to thank BirelART, IPKarting (Praga) and Sodikart for this very successful long-term partnership.”
The ‘Arrive&Drive’ concept of the RMC Grand Finals is one of the reasons why this event is so special: the only thing that counts are the driving skills of the racers, as all the material is provided by BRP-Rotax and the chassis partners, which are supporting following categories:
BirelART: Rotax 125 Micro MAX and Rotax 125 MAX DD2
IPKarting (Praga): Rotax 125 Mini MAX and Rotax 125 MAX DD2 Masters
Sodikart: Rotax 125 Junior MAX, Rotax 125 Senior MAX, Rotax Project E20 Senior and Junior
BRP-Rotax and its chassis partners BirelART, IPKarting (Praga) and Sodikart are looking forward to seeing you at the RMCGF 2022 in Portugal!
