-The athletes competing in the Champions of the Future Academy series have two decisive rounds left – both in the United Arab Emirates.
- In just a few days, on November 24-26, 2025, Julia Angelard will take part in the first of them, and the arena of competition will be the track in the Al Ain desert.
- Just one week later, the entire COTFA grid will head to Al Forsan for the season finale, concluding the 2025 karting season.
Test yourself in another part of the world
Given the increasing expansion of karting into the Middle East, participating in the final two rounds of the Champions of the Future Academy is an excellent opportunity to explore the karting facilities in the United Arab Emirates. Especially since they are also included in the series' 2026 calendar.
As Julia Angelard emphasizes, a new track is always an opportunity to gain even more experience, and having equal karts and engines for all competitors allows everyone to compete at a relatively equal level in the new arena.
The first opportunity to test your skills is just a few days away – November 24-26, 2025, at the Al Ain circuit.
Just a week later, December 1-3, 2025, the final round of the Champions of the Future Academy will take place.
This time, the competition will move to the nearby Al Forsan circuit, which hosted the first round of the COTFA UAE series a few weeks ago.
Julia Angelard: It's time to finish this season on a high note
"I have the final two rounds of the 2025 season ahead of me. It's time to finish this season on a high note and prepare solidly for next year's competition. The tracks in the Emirates are a new direction for karting competition, and I'm glad that in just a few days I'll have the chance to discover them and see if they become my favorite. I hope to experience fast driving, successful overtaking maneuvers, and fighting for the best possible positions. Especially since we all have the same equipment in the Champions of the Future Academy, and I know that my advantage is excellent pace," admits Julia Angelard.
