Mission accomplished by CRG-Maxter official team in the WSK World Series. The team won two titles on four: in KZ2 with its champion Jonathan Thonon and in KF3 with the young international promise Max Verstappen. The last act went on stage in Egypt in Sharm El Sheikh and was the occasion for the CRG chassis and the Maxter engines to show all their potentialities, not only in the two categories won by the team, but in Super KF too, thanks to Arnaud Kozlinski that was able to put his seal on the African event while in KF2 Michelle Gatting showed her undisputable qualities once more.

In KF3 Max Verstappen confirmed to be one of the top drivers of the category, attacking since the qualifying heats where he got two wins. So, thanks to a good second place in the pre final, Verstappen was able to secure the title with an advantage of points which became too wide for his rivals. He then dominated the final: he took the lead of the race and never let it go till the end. Verstappen arrived first, the Japanese driver Kasai was the runner up and Verstappen's teammate Speedy Antonio Fuoco grabbed the third step of the podium after a weekend of great performances throughout the various phases of the race.

After the end of the race the unexpected disqualification of max Verstappen for an irregular contact with Visoiu during the first laps. However, the fact, beyond all the considerations on the decision, had no effect on the final result of the championship: Verstappen tops the ranking and becomes champion with 152.5 points. Visoiu follows with 118, then Oriola with 87.5. Fuoco finishes fourth with 72 points.
