Mini 60
Muhammad Wibowo started the weekend strongly, qualifying second on Saturday before backing it up with third in Heat 2. The Indonesian converted that pace into a fifth-place finish in the Final to cap an encouraging opening day. Sunday proved far more challenging. Wibowo slipped outside the top twenty in qualifying and never recovered the momentum from Saturday, ending the weekend 27th in the Final.
Max Schilling delivered one of the category's most consistent weekends. Ninth in Saturday qualifying developed into fifth in Heat 1 before the Singaporean climbed to second in the Final. He followed that with another points-paying result on Sunday, finishing eighth despite a tougher route through qualifying.
Competing in the U10 classification, Samar Chopra steadily improved across the weekend. Saturday brought fourth in the U10 Final after consistently running inside the category's top five, while Sunday saw Chopra top the U10 order in Heat 2 and the aggregate classification before finishing second in the Final, his strongest result of the round.
OK-N Junior
Mitansh Jain recovered well from a difficult opening heat on Saturday to finish fifth in the Final, then repeated the result on Sunday after taking third in Heat 1 and fourth in the aggregate classification.
Axel Nocom produced the most complete weekend of any Asian driver in Viterbo. After qualifying ninth and finishing ninth in Saturday's Final, the Filipino stepped up another level on Sunday, qualifying second before finishing every heat inside the top three. He capped the weekend with second in the Final, combining outright pace with consistency across both days.
Atiqa Mir delivered one of the fastest individual performances of the weekend on Saturday. The Indian topped Qualifying and remained inside the top three through both heats before finishing sixth in the Final. Sunday, however, brought a dramatic reversal. Mir steadily dropped through each session before ending the weekend 28th in the Final.
OK-N Senior
Veer Chopra's results improved with every session. Despite a difficult opening heat on Saturday, the Indian recovered to finish sixth in the Final before producing his strongest performance on Sunday. Second in both heats and the aggregate classification translated into second in the Final, completing an impressive turnaround.
Jagrat Detroja was untouchable throughout Saturday. The Indian topped Qualifying, won Heat 2, led the aggregate classification, and completed a clean sweep with victory in the Final. Sunday was more difficult after qualifying 15th, but Detroja recovered through the heats to finish seventh, ensuring he left Viterbo with one of the strongest overall performances of the weekend.
Round 3 highlighted just how quickly momentum can shift in international karting. While several drivers experienced dramatic swings between Saturday and Sunday, Nocom's consistency across both days and Detroja's flawless Saturday campaign stood out as the benchmark performances as the Champions of the Future Academy Program moves on to Round 4.
