Denholm delivers with Wera Tools Driver of the Day win

Mini Max driver Cole Denholm has been named the Wera Tools Driver of the Day from Event 2 of the 2023 British Kart Championships, at Kimbolton last weekend.

Denholm was nominated by the panel of judges, along with a driver from each of the remaining classes thanks to their on-track performance, sporting act or overcoming adversity. Each karter was in line to scoop the coveted Wera Tools Trophy and Wera Tools prizes, whilst Motorsport UK will supplement the prize with a free test day at a BKC venue in 2023 or 2024. The winner was decided by a public online poll.

The judges nominated the youngster at the weekend, commenting: “‘The Closer’ does it again. P2 in qually and heat 1 but then beat teammate Jacob Ashcroft in 3 consecutive last lap battles to win heat two, pre final and the final itself with a superb outside last lap move at Derek’s Corner.”

Denholm will be presented with his trophy at the next round of the Rotax season.

There are many screwdriving tools…But unlike others, we do not believe that tools have reached their ultimate stage of development. We are always searching for new ideas. We think differently. We question things. And in so doing, develop screwdriving tools such as the Zyklop ratchet and the Joker open-end wrench – tools that have turned the familiar into the ordinary.

Any young person between the age of 8 and 13 years can begin in the “Cadet” class of kart racing in the UK. It’s the most popular class across the country with numbers increasing each year. All tracks run a club meeting for Honda Cadets each month and there is also a National Championship series for the more experienced drivers. At a younger age, if so desired, they can participate in “Bambino” time trials, from the age of 6 years. After the end of their 13th year, they must move up into a Junior category with more powerful and larger-size karts, but many move up from the age of 11 if they are getting too big for Cadets.
