Introduction to Karting
Karting
We will begin searching for the best young drivers in the Kingdom with a specially designed ‘Arrive & Drive’ karting track. We started at the first F1 Saudi Arabia Grand Prix in the Fanzone at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit as well as at the first ever WTCR race. We will be returning to the Fanzine for the fourth edition of the F1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix as well early next year.
Sessions will be open each evening for all kids between the ages of 6 -12 within the 110cm – 155cm height range. No experience is necessary, with experienced instructors and marshals on hand to oversee training with all participants able to learn the basics of motorsport in a low-powered electric race kart. Everything needed for the session, including race kart, race suit, balaclava and helmet will be provided on site.
