GROUPE PASSION AUTOMOBILES · Finale Race⏱ 1h06

The 65-minute endurance final at Sport Karting on the 1,100-metre karting circuit brought together 15 teams on 13 September 2026 for a race decided over 63 laps at the front of the field. When the chequered flag fell, it was RAVAL (kart #13) that took the victory, completing 63 laps and finishing 11.311 seconds ahead of CHERY (kart #14) in second place. CONTINENTAL (kart #24) rounded out the podium, a further 7.631 seconds back — 18.942 seconds off the winner in total.

JAECOO (kart #6) crossed the line fourth, also on 63 laps but 45.534 seconds behind RAVAL. The gap to fifth-placed MACAN (kart #10) extended to over a lap in time, with MACAN completing 62 laps, as did ELROQ (6th), BENTAYGA (7th), BORN (8th), and TEMERARIO (9th). TAVASCAN (10th) and CIVIC (11th) finished on 61 laps, while EPIQ (12th), TERRAMAR (14th), and OMODA (15th) all completed 59 laps. REVUELTO (kart #20, 13th) ended on 57 laps.

The fastest lap of the race was set by JAECOO with a time of 55.418 seconds — the quickest single lap recorded across the entire field throughout the 65 minutes.

Turning to the pace analysis, RAVAL's dominance is fully confirmed by the data. With a median race pace of 56.142 s, the winning team held the best pure pace of the entire field — a remarkable alignment between race result and raw speed. Their consistency was also solid, with a lap-time standard deviation of 1.03 s over 57 counted laps, and their single stint showed a stable tendency throughout.

CONTINENTAL stands out as the standout regularity performer of the race. Despite finishing third, the team posted the lowest standard deviation of the field at just 0.57 s, reflecting exceptional lap-time consistency. Their median pace of 56.574 s ranked them 2nd in pure pace, yet they finished 3rd — a slight gap between potential and result. CHERY, meanwhile, brought home 2nd place with a median pace of 56.721 s (3rd best) and near-identical consistency (1.04 s deviation), demonstrating that their podium finish was fully deserved on pace grounds.

JAECOO's story is the most contrasting of the top four: the team recorded the outright fastest lap of the race (55.418 s) yet managed only a 5th-best median pace of 57.217 s with the highest variability in the top five (1.45 s deviation), explaining why raw speed alone did not translate into a higher finishing position. MACAN (4th in pure pace, 56.845 s) was the best-placed team unable to match the front trio on lap count.

Further down, ELROQ (6th) was noteworthy for its regularity: a standard deviation of just 0.63 s, the second tightest of the race, while maintaining a competitive median of 57.340 s. TEMERARIO (9th) and EPIQ (12th) showed the most pace variability in their respective groups.

Key takeaways for teams: At Sport Karting, pure pace and consistency proved complementary rather than interchangeable. RAVAL demonstrated that combining the best median pace with solid regularity is the winning formula over 65 minutes. CONTINENTAL's exceptional consistency (0.57 s deviation) shows that minimising lap-time variation is a genuine competitive advantage. JAECOO's experience is a reminder that isolated fast laps do not substitute for a stable, sustained race rhythm — median pace over the full stint ultimately determines race position.
