Format Established2003

The idea

Anyone can watch motorsport. The format turns companies and guests from spectators into active participants — from the Le Mans-style start to driving stints in the middle of the night.

  • KF1 was the first organisation to create a 24-hour corporate kart challenge in Italy.
  • A Le Mans-inspired format designed for companies, brands and teams.

Participants, not spectators

Each company experiences strategy, relay changes, pit pressure and the cohesion of a true endurance team.

Corporate Experience

Designed primarily for companies, brands and teams, the format combines sport, incentive experience, communication and hospitality within a single international event platform.

International platform

Tunisia 2027 is the first step in an international project designed to coordinate teams, services, partners and event operations.

Our method

The Six Sigma Method: Quality at the Heart of KF1

Every process measured, every detail under control. For research, for companies and for everyone on track.

The KF1 Corporate Challenge is managed with the Six Sigma method, the data-driven approach made famous by General Electric to reduce errors and continuously improve every process. For us, it means replacing improvisation with method: defining what truly matters to each stakeholder, measuring it and improving it edition after edition.

What is critical to quality for us

  • SafetyDefined procedures and checks for every phase, on and off track.
  • PrecisionA reliable, on-time schedule, timing and results.
  • Guest experienceSatisfaction assessed before, during and after the event.
  • Value for researchTransparent, traceable fundraising for the Official Charity Beneficiaries of the KF1 Corporate Challenge.

“Quality… pride and commitment […]. Quality is the bond that will keep us together and by which our daily commitment and dedication to providing the best available service will be measured, always paying the utmost attention to the full satisfaction of our guests.”

The team

Who runs it

Paolo Campobasso and Claudio Sattin have organised the format since 2003, when it began in Italy in support of Telethon: in October that year, in Arezzo, Susanna Agnelli presented them with the Telethon award for their support of research.

Now the format goes international. The first event is Tunisia 2027, at the Hergla International Kart Race Track; from 2028 the Championship will follow, with six Grand Prix events across six countries. The spirit remains the one it began with: a major event designed for companies, united under the banner of solidarity. Days in which, among people who share the same values and ideals, friendship and collaboration can only grow.
