LEONARDO RIVADOSSI: supported by ZIPPOPIU.it, a young prospect of Brescian karting
We are thrilled to support Leonardo Rivadossi, a thirteen-year-old talent from Capriolo who is taking the karting world by storm. Born to a mother from Bergamo and a father from Lumezzane, Leonardo showed an extraordinary passion for engines from an early age, establishing himself as one of the brightest prospects in Brescian karting.
Leonardo races for the Squadra Corse Angelo Caffi and drives a kart with a 2-stroke Rotax engine, capable of reaching speeds of up to 110 km/h. In the Rmax championship, organized by Irkpromotion and Thkart, he took first place overall, proving his talent and determination.
His career began in 2021, racing with rental 4-stroke karts in the SWS championship, indoor races organized by Sodi. Leonardo immediately stood out, earning access to the international finals. He was scheduled to participate in the Le Mans final last year, but had to postpone due to other sporting commitments.
Wearing a racing suit gifted by his friend and idol, Kimi Antonelli—the upcoming Mercedes F1 driver—Leonardo competed in the Rmax championship, earning his spot in the 2025 finals to be held in Paris. His 2024 journey was also crowned with success in the 24-hour Endurance races, where he became the youngest driver to reach the podium.
Leonardo is not just a motorsport prospect, but also a young man full of ambition and dreams. We at ZIPPOPIU.it are proud to be by his side as a sponsor, providing him with the support he needs to keep shining.
