Perfect weather greeted the drivers of the Superkarts! USA Winter Series on Saturday at the AMR Homestead-Miami Motorplex Presented by MG Tires as blue skies and temperatures approaching the high-70s made it an ideal day. It was definitely ideal for the winning drivers in the Pro categories. PSL Karting’s Matheus Morgatto (Birel ART) turned in a masterful performance in Pro Shifter, sweeping all three sessions to win over Rolison Performance Group’s Danny Formal (Kosmic). In Pro X30, RPG’s Donovan Bonilla (Kosmic) got away from the pack early and stretched away for yet another top-level national win, despite being chased down aggressively in the late going by Sodi Racing USA’s Harley Keeble. The Englishman’s impressive pace has set the stage for what could be a big fight for the title on Sunday.

The 2024 Superkarts! USA Winter Series is set to conclude this weekend – February 2-4 – with the finale event of the seventh season. The AMR Homestead-Miami Motorplex presented by MG Tires will host Round Three and Four, welcoming over 200 entries in the nine categories competing in Homestead, Florida.
The 7/10-mile circuit will be revert to the clockwise direction for the second weekend for the 2024 SKUSA Winter Series. Wednesday and Thursday are unofficial practice with Friday hosting five official sessions for testing. Round Three is set for Saturday, including qualifying, Prefinal and Final. Round Four is a repeat format on Sunday. Points will then be combined for a best three of four championship format to decide the 2024 SKUSA Winter Series champions.
Two drivers stood out in the Pro X30 presented by SpeedLab Racing Engines as Ryan Norberg (RPG / Kosmic) eliminated his winless streak dating back to 2022, while Alessandro de Tullio (Inter MS / Kart Republic) showed he is a Homestead master in the wet. It is de Tullio leading the championship based on his runner-up performance to Norberg on Saturday, leading in the points standings by 60 over the five-time SKUSA Pro Tour champion. Jakub Kolar (Vice / Kart Republic) and Thomas Nepveu (Trinity / Kart Republic) both had a podium finish in the opening weekend but will need more this time around, trailing by 105 and 135 entering the weekend. SuperNationals 26 winner Donovan Bonilla (RPG / Kosmic), Harley Keeble (Piquet / Sodi Kart), Brandon Carr (Trinity / Kart Republic), and Diego Ramos (PSL / Birel ART) are among the top contenders for podium and wins.

Danny Formal locked up a double win weekend in Pro Shifter (Photo: EKN)
After a thrilling and competitive start to the 2024 season on Saturday, the Superkarts! USA Winter Series returned to AMR Homestead-Miami Motorplex presented by MG Tires on Sunday but this time in much different weather conditions. The rain that had been forecast hit the facility hard for the main events, giving those with wet weather prowess an upper hand. Coming off his Pro Shifter victory on Saturday, Rolison Performance Group’s Danny Formal extended his SKUSA event win-streak to three with a dominant triumph on a rain-soaked track. It’s been a little longer since Alessandro de Tullio has been on top of the box in a SKUSA event, but the Inter MS driver dominated the action in what was an action-packed X30 Senior final.
With pouring rain and standing water all over the track, SKUSA officials moved to set the main events by time as opposed laps. The early mains were set at 17 minutes plus a lap, and after a red flag in Micro Swift, that was decreased to 10 minutes plus a lap for the four three mains.
