While Beitske Visser was well on her way to a podium finish driver at Val Vibrata (Italy), during the second round of the WSK Master Series, a collision had the better of her, despite her determination.
With the support of Italians with a better knowledge than hers of this circuit, Beitske achieved the third best performance during timed qualifying, just one tenth of a second away from the pole position. On the first heat, after a hard fight in the lead pack, Beitske won the race. In the second qualifying heat, the engine began to stop from time to time, she losts a lot of time and slipped down to eighth. In the third heat, it started to rain and road holding was not optimal, she could not do better than seventh.
Beitske took advantage of the prefinal to start a superb series of overtaking manoeuvres and climbed up to third place. For the final, she preserved a very much coveted place on second row. “Everything went fine for me when the lights went off, but there were some troubles in the pack and I lost some places. The, I wanted to pass Aceto again. But when I tried, he moved towards me and I found myself in the grass at high speed. Then, I suffered a collision when my kart went back on the track. I tried to continue, but after heavy damage caused to my kart, I was forced to retire“.
Nothing Is Lost for Beitske: “At the last meeting in Castelletto, there will be no room for doubts or questions. Victory will be my goal !”
