The student association Kilometriks is organising a major karting competition on 14 March at the Circuit Paul Ricard to benefit the association Hand in Hand. The Kilometriks association, made up of students from the Kedge Business School, has announced that a charity karting race will be held on the track of the prestigious Circuit Paul Ricard, in Le Castellet. The event, scheduled for Saturday 14 March, aims to bring together students and partner companies around a solidarity cause. At the heart of this day, civic engagement is a priority. The organisers have indeed decided to donate 60% of the profits generated to the Hand in Hand charity. This initiative combines a passion for motorsport with concrete support for those in need, a project fully driven by the students' motivation. More than 22 teams and 220 drivers are expected to compete in this event, which promises an electric atmosphere. In addition to the race, various other activities will be offered throughout the day for the public and participants. Spectators are also invited in large numbers to come and cheer on the teams on the track.
