The driver

From his first lap at 5 to a world podium at 13.

Born 5 April 2013, from Calabria and living in Cassino. He first sat in a kart at the age of five and a half: then came Entry Level Lazio, Modena Kart, CRG and Kalì Kart, wins in the Italian 60 Mini Championship and, since 2023, WSK races against drivers from all over the world.

In 2026 ACI Sport chose him as the only Italian driver at the FIA Karting Academy Trophy: three races in two countries, Belgium and Italy, against the best young drivers in the world, finishing second in the final standings of the Junior championship.

Today he races in OK-N Junior with KGT Motorsport Roma, on Tony Kart and Vortex equipment. His trademark is the comeback: he never gives up when a race gets difficult.

Domenico with his dad in the Viterbo paddock
Always by his side

His number one fan.

The garage, the trips, the early alarms and the days at the track: every race weekend, Domenico's dad Rosario is by his side.

He is always there for him, helps him with everything and lives every lap alongside him, from the first races in Lazio to the international podium.

The 2026 team

On track with KGT Motorsport.

Since 2026 Domenico has been racing in OK-N Junior with KGT Motorsport, the Rome-based team run by Stefano Tredicine, on a Tony Kart chassis with a Vortex engine.

With the team he takes on the Italian ACI Karting Championship and the WSK races: every weekend the red and black kart with his name on it, prepared by GPM Officine, and a garage working towards a single goal.
