The 195-minute endurance final at Misanino Karting Circuit (890 m, Misano Adriatico) brought together 21 teams on 12 July 2026 for one of the most closely contested races of the season. At the flag, SVK Racing (kart 7) took the victory after 203 laps, edging out Romagna Rental Karting (kart 1) by just 1.294 seconds — a margin that illustrates how little separated the top two across nearly three and a half hours of racing.

SVK Silver (kart 8) completed the podium one lap down, ahead of PFV (kart 18) and GR39 (kart 13), both classified at 2 laps. Roma Caput Karting Orange (kart 5) rounded out the top six, also at 2 laps. The fastest lap of the entire race — 45.828 s — was set by SVK Racing.

The analysis reveals a race where pace, consistency, and pit-stop strategy each played a decisive role. SVK Racing was dominant in every dimension: best pure pace (median race lap of 46.214 s), best in-class regularity (standard deviation of 0.30 s), and a flawless six-stint structure completed with just 5 pit stops. Every one of their stints showed a stable trend, and their median lap never wavered beyond 46.4 s even in the final stints — a textbook display of endurance management.

Romagna Rental Karting matched SVK Racing lap-for-lap at the finish (203 laps) and recorded the 2nd best pure pace (median 46.246 s, σ 0.29 s), also on 5 stops. Their fourth stint was their fastest (median 46.038 s), demonstrating the ability to find speed deep into the race. The 1.294 s final gap reflects how fine the margins were between these two teams all afternoon.

The standout strategic story belongs to SVK Silver, who finished 3rd overall despite only the 9th-best pure pace (median 46.498 s). Their exceptional regularity — the best of the entire field at σ 0.24 s — combined with a clean five-stop race converted a modest raw speed into a podium finish. Consistency, here, outweighed outright pace.

Conversely, GR39 Prime illustrated the cost of inconsistency: ranked 6th in pure pace (median 46.436 s), they finished only 12th. Their regularity was the weakest among the analysed teams (σ 0.43 s), and their opening stint — just 6 laps at a median of 46.931 s — points to a difficult start. Despite recovering to deliver some of their best laps in stints 3 and 7, the time lost early could not be recouped.

PFV (4th overall, 3rd in pure pace, median 46.302 s) and Roma Caput Karting Orange (6th overall, 4th in pure pace, 46.347 s) both had the raw speed to challenge for the podium, but their extra pit stop — 6 against 5 for the top three — ultimately cost them the positions their pace deserved.

Key takeaways for teams: at Misanino, the combination of genuine pace and pit-stop discipline is decisive. SVK Racing's victory was built on both — the fastest median lap and the most efficient stop strategy. SVK Silver's podium proves that pinpoint regularity can compensate for a pace deficit of almost 0.3 s per lap. For teams like GR39 Prime, the priority is stabilising opening stints and reducing lap-time variance, as their mid-race speed showed they had the pace to run inside the top eight.
