Driven by passion, fuelled by ambition
The motorsport world is abuzz with excitement as Australian go-karting prodigy Lazarus Añonuevo takes a giant leap towards his dream of becoming the first Australian to drive for Ferrari and win a Formula 1 World Championship. Lazarus, a decorated champion with accolades spanning multiple states and national titles, has secured an extraordinary opportunity for the 2025 racing season—joining forces with Gold Kart International, Righetti Ridolfi, and TreDkart Racing Team as a team driver in Italy.
This thrilling announcement sets the tone for an unforgettable year, underscoring Lazarus’s meteoric rise in the world of motorsport. Competing on the international stage with two of the most respected and storied names in karting—Gold Kart International and Righetti Ridolfi—as well as the dynamic TreDkart Racing Team, Lazarus’s journey is a testament to his unparalleled dedication, talent, and resilience. For over 50 years, Gold Kart International and Righetti Ridolfi have been synonymous with excellence, innovation, and championing the next generation of racing stars. Teaming up with these industry giants to race in the World Superkart (WSK) Final Cup, select rounds of the Italian ACI Karting Championship and the Kartsport Circuit Championship is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the young Australian, cementing his place among the world’s most promising drivers.
A Legacy of Triumphs
Lazarus’s impressive achievements in 2024 laid the groundwork for this incredible opportunity. As a two-time State Champion in the KNSW League (ACT and NSW) and the recipient of the prestigious Australian Karting Championship Most Improved Cadet of the Year Award, he has consistently demonstrated his ability to perform under pressure. His runner-up podium finish in his first full year in the Round 4 of the Australian Karting Championship further solidified his reputation as a rising star.
Lazarus’s ultimate goal of becoming a Formula 1 World Champion and driving for Ferrari fuels his relentless pursuit of excellence. His 2025 season will bring him one step closer to making that dream a reality. Representing Australia on the international stage while making history at home, Lazarus’s story is one of ambition, talent, and an unwavering commitment to his craft.
