Seletiva de Kart Petrobras

The Seletiva de Kart Petrobras is a karting competition in Brazil. The competition is promoted by former racing driver Paulo Carcasci, and sanctioned by the Brazilian autosports federation (Confederação Brasileira de Automobilismo).

Rules edit

Each year, twelve drivers between 15 and 18 years old are selected to compete. Previous winners are excluded. To be selected for the final event, drivers must pass pre-selection. The organization designates rounds of the national and certain regional karting championships as pre-selection races. The karts are provided by the organization, depending on the hosting track. For the 2017 event, they used Bravar karts powered by a 28HP Biland engine.[1]

The winner of the competition receives R$85,000, and the second-place finisher receives R$8,000.[2] For the 2017 event, an additional prize was added. The winner was selected to compete in the 2017 Mazda Road to Indy Shootout, in this competition Olin Galli was the winner.[3]
