The third round of the Champions of the Future Euro Series was not a smooth ride for the drivers and teams, who had to deal with particularly changeable weather conditions for three days. The Kristianstad circuit was sometimes dry, sometimes slightly damp and sometimes very wet. But each time, Nathan Tye and the Sodi Racing Team were able to adapt perfectly, to triumph in the OK-Junior Final. Mathematically, the young Briton has already secured the title in this prestigious series with one race to go!
Three weeks after his victory in Spain, which allowed him to take the lead of the FIA Karting European Championship in OK-Junior, Nathan Tye encountered a different environment in the south of Sweden, with a track that often changed during the meeting. But it didn't take long for the Briton to appear at the top of the timesheets: Tye ended his Thursday test day with the fastest time in his group in his final practice session. The next day, he confirmed this with a top five time out of a total of 73 drivers, then a top three overall, with two wins. His 2nd place in the Super Heat gave him a pole position for the Final.
"With my Sodi-TM Racing kart, I have a solid package this season," commented Nathan Tye. "The Sodi Racing Team is doing an incredible job and I also have some very good engines with GFR, our engine supplier."
A rocky finale mastered by Tye
With 124 points against 75 for his closest rival in the provisional Euro Series ranking, Nathan Tye is now virtually crowned Champion of the Future, even before the last race scheduled in Italy! Having already won on many occasions in FIA Karting or WSK Promotion, the Sodikart brand has won another valuable trophy on the international scene.
