Once again the series, which began back in September 2023, proved to be a great success as Denso customers across the UK and Ireland demonstrated their competitive spirits and fought to make it through their separate heats, and put themselves in with the chance to take the Denso karting crown.<\/p>\n

\u201cThankfully, unlike last year, we had a dry circuit and warm and sunny conditions for this year\u2019s final,\u201d explained Denso UK and Ireland sales manager, Kevin Peacocke.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were also able to add an extra dimension to the proceedings with the presence of the Denso Stig, who provided the finalists with a little extra guidance and a whole heap of motivation to claim the top spot and be crowned the 2024 DENSO Go Karting champion.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"
After 16 ultra-competitive heats that took place at circuits throughout the UK and Ireland, the 20 finalists lined up on the grid for the grand final at Wilton Mill on the 4th May to determine the overall winner<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

To further add to the challenge and the overall experience, the 20 drivers were racing the Grand Prix-International course, a circuit that has been voted the UK\u2019s best karting track and regularly used by professional drivers and F1 stars like David Coultard and Toto Wolf.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs with every competition, however, there can only be one winner and this year it was Brett Ward, who deservedly took the top honour,\u201d Peacocke continued. \u201cSo, many congratulation to Brett, and to Cameron Belt and Michael Jackson, who finished second and third respectively, but also to all the finalists and to the Stig who, together, made this a hugely enjoyable event, with great camaraderie, alongside that competitive edge.\u201d<\/p>\n

The final was concluded with ongoing celebrations at the Turtle Bay restaurant, where talk inevitably turned to the 2025 championship, which kicks off in the autumn, and is sure to spur the same sense of excitement and anticipation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
