Season Starts Well for Sodi
Anthony Abbasse, leading driver of the Sodi Racing Team, did a good job with his new Sigma chassis manufactured by the French company. On the first race of the year, this new product recently homologated by Sodi immediately showed its more than convincing potential during the prestigious Winter Cup. Abbasse relentlessly fought with the best drivers in KZ2, and even battled for leadership before claiming the third step of the podium in the final. Due to a slight delay caused by excessive tyre pressure in the pre-final while the track was beginning to dry out, he was forced to resort to all the resources of his kart to get back to the top 3 in the last race.
Abbasse’s success in KZ2 is not the only reason of satisfaction for the Sodikart company. In his maiden race in the KF3 international class, the young driver Arthur Lehouck effortlessly secured pole position in timed qualifying ahead of a pack of 103 competitors. This stunning performance was achieved thanks to his Sodi chassis, perfectly prepared by the SG Drivers team, and to his engine tune-up specialist Thierry Lépinne from IAME Belgium, but of course also thanks to an extraordinary driver, just arrived from the Minime class. What is more, Dorian Guldenfels showed a great performance and was the best French driver in the final, in 15th place, with the second fastest lap in the race.
There is no doubt that the 2012 Sodi chassis have started under the best auspices and will make it possible for their drivers to fight for victory all along the season.
