Formula 1 opens its karting track in London

About a year ago, an agreement on long-term cooperation was signed between Formula 1 and the London football club Tottenham, and we discussed it. In particular, they then talked about organizing an official Formula 1 karting track on the territory of the Tottenham Spur Stadium, where a karting school would operate.

Today the World Championship press office announced that the opening of the F1 Drive karting track is scheduled for February 6, but that ticket sales will start next Thursday morning. However, Tottenham fans who have a privileged club card can buy tickets a day earlier.

The F1 Drive karting track is located beneath the south stand of the stadium and has three different track configurations, all of which are inspired by Formula 1’s most famous circuits. The configurations vary in difficulty and are designed for drivers of different skill levels.

The cars that karting enthusiasts will race have some interesting and unique features; in particular, they are equipped with displays that show not only timing information, but also position in the race, intervals between competitors and safety information on the track. and about marshal flags.

There is also a DRS button on the steering wheel of each kart, which of course has nothing to do with the aerodynamics of the car, but with which you can activate the high-power mode.

It is also worth noting that F1 Drive’s karting school plans to help young people who dream of a career in motorsports to correctly navigate their career choice and even find work in the racing industry.
