The final round of the five-event championship took place at Sarno, near Naples in Italy, from 9th to 12th September. Conditions remained dry throughout the meeting, with temperatures in the high 20s and low 30s.

Hoogendoorn led the Parolin Motorsport challenge in OK, building momentum through the heats and Super Heat before starting the Final from 9th on the grid. He gained five places in the decisive race to finish 4th, just off the podium. Cuman also moved forward strongly on Saturday, recovering through his Super Heat before gaining five places from 11th on the Final grid to take 6th. William Calleja added another determined drive, gaining six places to finish 13th.

In OK-Junior, Girardello showed front-running pace throughout the heats and remained in the podium battle during the Final. He ran as high as 3rd and crossed the line 6th, but a five-second front fairing penalty placed him 10th in the official classification.

Walle produced one of the most notable recoveries of the meeting. Unable to set a time in Qualifying, he fought his way forward through the heats and Super Heat to secure the last qualifying place for the Final. Starting 36th, he gained 22 places to finish 14th, turning a difficult start to the weekend into an encouraging result.

For Ward Racing, Manach combined another competitive weekend with the runner-up position in the OK championship. He won a heat and finished 2nd in his Super Heat to secure 4th on the grid for the Final. A five-second front fairing penalty left him 9th in the race classification, but his campaign was rewarded with Vice-Champion honours.

Ward Racing also showed strong pace in OK-Junior. Antonio Pizzonia won a heat and remained among the frontrunners before a collision on the last lap ended his Final. Maxim Bobreshov and Max Felde both gained 10 places in the decisive race despite front fairing penalties, finishing 17th and 18th respectively.

Marco Parolin said:

"There were some very determined drives at Sarno. Dean and Nicolò both made good progress in the OK Final, and Oskari's recovery from the back of the grid was particularly encouraging after such a difficult start to his weekend. Gioele also showed the pace to fight for a podium, even if the penalty affected his final result. Congratulations to Benjamin and Ward Racing on 2nd place in the OK championship. It is a positive way to close the Euro Series and gives us plenty to build on for the next event."

Parolin Motorsport will now turn its attention to the FIA Karting World Championship for KZ at Le Mans, France, on 20th September. The OK and OK-Junior drivers will contest their FIA Karting World Championship at La Conca, Italy, on 8th November.
