Alonso González: The young Dominican prodigy conquering international karting
Dominican motorsports continues to reach new milestones thanks to the talent of Alonso André González Pérez. At just 12 years old, the young driver has achieved a remarkable feat by becoming the runner-up of the IAME Final Games, an event held at the prestigious South Garda Karting circuit in Lonato, Italy. This achievement comes just two weeks after securing second place in the IAME World Final in Viterbo, reaffirming his position as one of the most solid prospects in global karting.
Resilience and talent under extreme conditions
The road to the podium in Italy was not simple. González Pérez had to navigate a weekend marked by heavy rain and an extremely technical track that tested his ability to adapt. After qualifying in sixth position in the rain, the Dominican demonstrated his competitive maturity by climbing positions in the qualifying heats, highlighting his third-place finish in the second race.
The final day on Sunday was the stage where Alonso truly shone: he secured a second place in the Fighters Race and a third in the Super Chrono, thus securing a privileged position for the grand final, where he ultimately crossed the finish line as runner-up.
This time we could not be physically with Alonso, but our hearts were with him in every practice, every qualifying session, and every lap of the race.

Under the technical guidance of Carlos Abreu and as part of the Haase Racing Team—linked to the legendary world champion Jørn Haase—the young driver has faced a demanding season on European circuits. His participation in high-level competitions such as WSK, ACI, and Champions of the Future has provided him with the international experience necessary to climb the ranks in motorsport.
