Aaron Blackett continued his charge towards the 2026 Sectus Technologies Barbados Karting Association (BKA) Champion Driver title by further cutting into Edward Norris’s lead following a fiercely contested fourth round at Bushy Park last Sunday.

Blackett, who was the top scorer in the Easykart 125cc class for the second consecutive round, reduced Norris’s advantage to just 12 points at the halfway stage of the championship. Norris leads the standings on 369 points, with Blackett close behind on 357 and Jacob Mayers third on 346.

Having trimmed four points from Norris’s lead in April, Blackett maintained his momentum with three hard-fought race victories to again emerge as the round’s leading scorer, tightening the title race heading into the second half of the season. Blackett, who finished second overall when he was 100cc Champion in 2021, battled wheel-to-wheel on Sunday with 2024 Champion Driver Jacob Mayers, winning margins measured in inches. Blackett was fastest in Qualifying, but Mayers led the opening race until the last lap, when Blackett passed him to win by two-tenths.
