JULIA ANGELARD FIGHTS FOR THE PODIUM OF THE POLISH KARTING CHAMPIONSHIPS

  • This weekend we will finally find out the Polish Karting Champions in each category.
  • The last KMP competition this season will be held on September 18-20, 2026 at the Biłgoraj Autodrome.
  • 14-year-old Julia Angelard is still in contention for a podium finish in the OK Junior category.

In just a few days, we’ll find out which riders will claim the prestigious title of Polish Karting Champion. Although the battle for the top step of the podium in some categories has already been decided in Słomczyn, the question of who will be the Polish Vice-Champion and Second Vice-Champion remains open. Among the riders vying for a podium spot in the Junior OK category is the winner of the round at Tor Poznań – 14-year-old Julia Angelard, competing for the MG Racing Team.

A fast and technical track, the perfect place for the final

The modernized Autodrom Biłgoraj racing track, 1,201 meters long and ranging from 8 to 14.5 meters wide, is one of the most modern and fastest karting facilities in Europe. A carefully thought-out configuration of fast bends, technical turns, and straights allows drivers to reach top speeds of up to 130 km/h. The qualifying session will undoubtedly play a crucial role this weekend, defining the starting grid for the first race, as overtaking rivals is very difficult on this track.

The technical parameters of the track in Biłgoraj and the highest standard of safety measures are undoubtedly proof that the entire Polish Karting Championships can engage in intense wheel-to-wheel combat on a demanding, yet fast track, and the truly best in each category will win.

With one round remaining in the championship, and after deducting each driver’s four worst results, Julia Angelard currently sits third overall in the Junior OK category. Based on net points, she has 132 points, so that places her 20 points behind the second driver and just three points ahead of her fourth-place rival.

Julia Angelard: my goal is to achieve the best possible result

“Although the championship title in my category already belongs to its current owner, I’m still fighting for a top-three finish. My goal is to achieve the best possible result, although it’s hard to predict what scenario the Biłgoraj Autodrom and the weather will have in store for us. I know I’m capable of a very good pace, as I demonstrated in Poznań. All that’s left is to find my way around the track, find the right kart settings, and give it my all. Keep your fingers crossed!” encourages the DAG Management protégé.
