It would be cool to see some of the current karters giving these old guys some competition - like Ardigo, Fore, Thonon etc. Like the good old Elf Masters.

Edit: Yeah, I am aware that the guys mentioned aren't exactly young guys, but you know what I mean... I hope.

It is shown live on Eurosport 2. And off course I only have Eurosport 1, which will probably show ski jumping or snooker instead.

Caca Bueno is out fo the race, he broke a bone of his face playing soccer in a charity game with other drivers like Massa and di Grassi.

Mario Moraes of the IRL is going to replace him in the race
