Welcome
to the official Birel S.p.A. website. In the name of Birel philosophy,
which has always been targeted to customer service and technology,
we have created a karting portal: the focus is on products,
debates with engineers and drivers, reviews of tracks and information
on the key issues of our sport. Birel is leader on the web,
too. |

- 2002 CIK-FIA WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP FORMULA SUPER A - BIREL
LEADS BOTH DRIVERS' AND CONSTRUCTORS' LEAGUES.
Quintarelli dominates both races and conquers the
leadership of the drivers' league. The two Birel teams
(Motorsport and Birel SpA) also occupy the first two positions
in the constructors league.
The second trial of the Formula Super A World Championship,
which was held at the beautiful Alaharma track in Finland,
witnessed the triumph of the Birel colours. Ronnie Quintarelli
completely stole the Finnish show by conquering first
place in both races, but Birel's success was further enhanced
by Marco Ardigò, Gianluca Beggio and Laurent Groppi's
excellent performances, taking the two World Championship
teams to first and second place in the constructors' league.
Ronnie Quintarelli, who had already conquered the pole
position in the opening race in Belgium, certainly looks
in good shape and, thanks to the double success at Alaharma,
is now at the top of the World Championship drivers' league,
with a 22-point lead over Alessandro Manetti. Two more
Birel drivers occupy the third and sixth positions: Gianluca
Beggio, several times world champion, who conquered the
fifth and the sixth position on the Finnish track, and
Marco Ardigò, who came fourth in race 1 and second
in race 2.

The excellent results of Birel Motorsport drivers Beggio
and Ardigò take their team to the top of the constructors'
league. Birel Spa, on the other hand, the team represented
by Ronnie Quintarelli and French driver Groppi, is second,
three points behind its cousin team. The Tony Kart and
D.R -Crg teams follow in third and fourth place. The next
appointment with the FSA World Championship is scheduled
for the second week of August in Braga in Portugal. Ronnie
Quintarelli will participate as the leader of the drivers'
league and the Birel R 31/Tm duo as the kart to beat.
RACE 1
Alessandro Manetti, the winner of both the previous races
held in Belgium, went out during the first lap. Ronnie
Quintarelli immediately took over the leadership in front
of Marko Asmer and Ardigò. The Crg divers Bakker
and Bonetti also distinguished themselves, along with
Gianluca Beggio, Byrne and Van Dam. Quintarelli's leadership
was never questioned, but Ardigò, Asmer, Forè
and Beggio hotly disputed the second and third positions.
On the finishing line, the Estonian Tony Kart driver was
second, whilst Marco Ardigò was overtaken by Davide
Forè, to whom he left the third position during
the very last lap. Beggio ended the race in fifth position,
in front of Bakker and Bonetti..
