odi is very happy and proud of the Vice-World Champion title in KZ won by Anthony Abbasse at Kristianstad. This magnificent result concludes a very convincing 2016 season for Sodi at the forefront of the current premier class in karting.
A grand finale!
The world meeting at Kristianstad immediately confirmed the performance of the Sodi drivers. Bas Lammers began with the 3rd fastest time and then continued to the third row of the Prefinal. Hampered by a concern about carburation on the formation lap of the Final, he finished 4th in the wheeltracks of the 3rd. Jérémy Iglesias started with 5th in Qualifying before experiencing a slowdown, but eventually came back to 7th position. Finally, Anthony Abbasse was the least well placed early in the meeting with his 12th in Qualifying, with his fastest time set just after the chequered flag. He was delayed in the second heat, the victim of a collision, but came back from 12th to 7th position in the Prefinal. He was free to make a legendary start and even took the lead in mid-race. He finished a fantastic 2nd place while being credited with the second fastest lap so became the 2016 Vice-World Champion in KZ.
Sodi announced its ambitions with its big comeback in 2015. Success wasn’t long in coming with remarkable performances from the beginning, with more confirmed in 2016. Next year, the goal will clearly be to focus on more wins and major international titles.
