The sixth and final date of the championship, organized by the Dominican Karting Drivers Club (CDCK) and endorsed by the National Federation of Motor Racing (FDA), took place at the modern United Petroleum Kartódromo, in Sierra Prieta, where a day full of excitement and high competitive level was experienced. Cifre dominated the season with authority. In the closing of the championship, he achieved two consecutive pole positions and victories from start to finish, leading every lap and setting the fastest laps in the final races. His impeccable performance reinforces an upward trajectory that already adds up to 24 consecutive podiums in the last four years, an exceptional record for a driver of his age.

His international performance has also boosted his projection. During 2025 he competed in two European events, qualifying for all the finals and facing the 28 best young kart racers in the world. In 2026, Cifre will represent the country in the prestigious FIA Academy Trophy, bringing with him the experience and competitive maturity that have made him a benchmark in national karting.

In addition to Cifre’s triumph, the day consecrated the champions of the other categories:

Sebastián Berroa, champion in Mini FDA, who also represented the country in the United States in 2025.
Edder Herrera, champion in Senior Max, at only 16 years old and who defended the colors of the Dominican flag in Malaysia during 2025.
Manuel González, champion in Vortex VLR and Tillotson T4.
Ethan Pichardo, champion in Kid Kart.

With this last date, the CDCK closes a vibrant year with six events held in Sierra Prieta, where the public enjoyed a family atmosphere and free access, consolidating karting as a discipline in full growth and with solid talents for the future.
