Max Verstappen, on CRG/TM, confirms his leadership in the WSK Master Series KZ2 category thanks to another terrific win achieved in final 2 in the third round of the series in Precenicco (Italy). The Dutch driver is now very close to the championship: he has a 77 point lead with only 85 points to be assigned in the final round of Castelletto di Branduzzo on 14th July.
Max Verstappen and CRG outpaced their rival in the third round of the WSK Master Series in Precenicco since qualifying. Here, the young Dutch driver got the pole-position hands down, on a track he had never seen before.
His positive trend continued in the two qualifying heats on Saturday, where he won twice. Only for a tyre issue he couldn't win final 1, where he had to be content with the second place behind Hajek.
On Sunday, Verstappen ruled again and won the two remaining heats and final 2 effortlessly.
Thanks to the second place achieved onSaturday and his victory on Sunday, Verstappen's lead over his competitors has widened: Negro is 77 points behind, Hayek 78.
The WSK Master Series race gave Verstappen another good reason to optimist in view of his main target: the forthcoming KZ European Champion to be held in Wackersdorf in two weeks' time.
The next and last event of the WSK Master Series is on the 7 Laghi Circuit in Castelletto di Branduzzo (Pavia - Italy) on 14th July.
