The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - Larco Rafael Pesigan Cortez of Formula E Racing placed second in the final leg of the 2013 Coca-Cola Karting Super Series to formally claim the Formula Cadet Novice crown at the Carmona racetrack in Cavite recently.

The 11-year-old Don Bosco-Makati student also emerged the Cadet Novice champion, ruling six of the eight legs to wrap up the championship with a total of 589 points.

The young future karting champ also showed lots of promise in the higher division, consistently turning in third place finishes in the Mini-ROK class in his very first try.

He was second in the Mini-ROK time trials, just two seconds behind the pole winner in another impressive showcase of skills and aggressive driving.

“The Macau AKOC race proved a big lesson for us that Larco managed to achieve all our goals in this race. He may be young but he has the talent and passion for the sport,” said Formula E Racing CEO and head coach Elson Carpio.
