Gara 3 Race⏱ 4 min

Gara 3 of the endurance series at the Circuito di Pomposa (Pista Kart, 1 213 m) in San Giuseppe di Comacchio, Ferrara, took place on 25 July 2026. Thirty-nine karts lined up for this 4-minute sprint-endurance format, delivering a tight and demanding contest across the field.

KART 38 took the chequered flag to claim victory, completing 10 laps and finishing the race on its final tour, as reflected by the gap recorded at Lap 10. The winner posted a best lap of 33.919 s and made 11 pit stops throughout the race.

KART 20 finished in 2nd position, also on 10 laps, just 0.941 s behind the winner, with a best lap of 34.200 s and 11 pit stops — making it the closest battle at the front. KART 18 completed the podium in 3rd place, 2.093 s from the leader, recording a best lap of 32.817 s across 12 pit stops.

The top 10 was separated by just over 5 seconds, underlining the competitive nature of the race. KART 30 (4th, +2.676 s, 11 stops) and KART 37 (5th, +3.426 s, 12 stops) rounded out the top five. Notable among the leading finishers, KART 37 set the fastest lap of the entire race with a time of 32.663 s, despite crossing the line in 5th position. KART 9 (6th, +4.095 s), KART 6 (7th, +5.005 s), KART 12 (8th, +5.068 s), KART 35 (9th, +5.162 s) and KART 2 (10th, +5.256 s) all completed the top 10 within a 5.3-second window from the leader.

Further down the order, KART 34 (11th) and KART 33 (12th) were the best of a group that completed 10 laps with only 10 pit stops, while KART 17 (13th, +10.077 s) and KART 36 (14th, +10.517 s) followed closely. KART 8 in 15th posted a best lap of 33.271 s, one of the sharper single-lap performances in the mid-field. Positions 16 through 26 all completed 10 laps with gaps ranging from 14.382 s to 29.134 s off the race winner.

From 27th position onwards, thirteen karts were classified on 9 laps — one lap down on the leaders. Among them, KART 28 (30th) stood out with a best lap of 33.886 s, the sharpest single-lap time in that group. KART 13 (39th) and KART 5 (36th) were the slowest classified finishers, with best laps of 36.084 s and 36.120 s respectively.

In terms of pit-stop strategy, the field was broadly split between teams making 10, 11 or 12 stops over the 4-minute race. Teams on 12 stops — such as KART 18, KART 37, KART 9, KART 6 and KART 12 — tended to feature among the top runners despite the additional time spent in the pits, suggesting a faster on-track pace. Teams with only 10 stops filled positions 11 to 18, indicating that a reduced stop count did not translate into a higher finishing position at Circuito di Pomposa on this occasion.
