A young karting star is gearing up for a championship showdown.

Weston-super-Mare racer William Robinson has put himself in a strong position for the final round of the GKL Karting National Championship.

With three consecutive race wins, five wins this season, and eight podiums in total, the eight-year-old has adapted well to the faster cadet karts.

Racing at 60mph, William has gone from strength to strength.

He now has his sights firmly set on finishing the season on a high in a bid to claim the championship title.

William thanked his family, friends, and sponsors Swallows Racing and Apex Race Centre for their support.

You can follow and support William through social media, Facebook and Instagram @williamrobinsonracing.

The final round of the GKL Karting National Championship will take place in a few weeks' time.
