This week’s official launch of Easykart Barbados marks the completion of phase one of a rolling programme to establish a ladder of opportunity that its creators hope will one day result in a Barbadian winning a motor racing World Championship, following in the wheel-tracks of karting graduates such as Lewis Hamilton and Sebastien Vettel.

Following its hugely-successful first visit as part of last May’s Top Gear Festival, Red Bull Global Rallycross will return to Bushy Park Barbados on October 3/4, 2015 . . . and island fans will enjoy an even bigger helping of 600 horsepower thrills, hosting one of three double-headers in the 12-race calendar, confirmed today (January 13).
