3 Heures ROTAX · Finale Race⏱ 3h09

The Circuit de l'Enclos in Septfontaine hosted the Finale of its endurance event on 5 September 2026, with eight teams battling over 188 minutes on the 1,192-metre Competition track. When the chequered flag fell, it was TAHITI BOB (kart #8) who took the win, completing 163 laps and holding off a determined challenge from LES 2 D (kart #4) by just 11.098 seconds — a remarkably tight margin after more than three hours of racing.

NAZCAR RACING (kart #7) rounded out the podium in third, also on 163 laps but 44.914 seconds adrift of the leader. SCUDERIA FERRARIBBI (kart #6) came home fourth, one lap down, while COMTÉ RACING (kart #5), TT IMMO (kart #3), FULLSTEEL (kart #2), and LES JOSES (kart #1) completed the order, finishing 4, 8, 10, and 14 laps behind the winner respectively. The absolute fastest lap of the race was set by LES 2 D with a time of 56.241 s.

The pace analysis reveals a more nuanced picture beneath the final standings. LES 2 D posted the best pure pace of the field, recording a median lap time of 57.227 s — over half a second quicker than winners TAHITI BOB's median of 57.787 s. However, TAHITI BOB countered with the strongest consistency of the entire field, achieving a lap-time standard deviation of just 1.15 s, the lowest of any team. That combination of solid rhythm and superior regularity ultimately proved decisive over the full distance.

NAZCAR RACING finished third on the road but ranked only 4th in pure pace (median 58.302 s), while FULLSTEEL stands out as the hidden performer of the day: 3rd-best pace on the grid (median 57.898 s), yet classified 7th. Their consistency also suffered, with the second-highest standard deviation of the field at 2.14 s, indicating a more erratic rhythm that likely cost them positions. LES JOSES recorded the highest standard deviation at 2.26 s and the slowest median pace at 1:01.011, reflecting a difficult afternoon.

On the strategy side, SCUDERIA FERRARIBBI is the team that over-delivered relative to their raw pace: ranked only 6th in pure rhythm (median 58.690 s), they converted that into a 4th-place finish, gaining two positions through efficient management of the race. TT IMMO, meanwhile, showed a pace (median 58.516 s) that would have merited 5th on pure speed, but finished 6th with the second-highest standard deviation among the leading group (1.45 s), alongside FULLSTEEL's issues.

Key takeaways for teams: At the Circuit de l'Enclos, regularity pays. TAHITI BOB's victory demonstrates that a consistent median pace — even without the outright fastest lap — can outrun a quicker but less regular competitor over 188 minutes. FULLSTEEL's case is a clear lesson: 3rd-best pace did not translate into results, with lap-time variance being the likely differentiator. Teams with strong raw speed should focus on reducing their standard deviation across full stints. SCUDERIA FERRARIBBI's ability to finish above their pace ranking underlines the value of tactical race management on this circuit.
