The organizer confirmed promoting 'Nong McLaren' to first place instead of 'Nong Payu' amid the go-kart controversy.
On 19 October 2026 GMT+7, the Royal Automobile Association of Thailand (RAAT), under royal patronage, held its first press conference regarding the go-kart controversy involving Nong Payu Rangsi Singhpipat. After the final round of the third race in the Cadet B category for ages 8-9 in the Super Kart Thailand Championship, car number 69 was protested for using an engine cylinder that did not comply with regulations, as Nong Payu's car had a different cylinder model than the other 21 cars.
RAAT confirmed that this act violated competition rules and stated it would inform the race organizers to announce the official results accordingly.
Recently, the Super Kart Thailand race committee announced it had received an official order from RAAT, document number 823/69 dated 16 October 2026, following an appeal regarding the decision in the third race of the Cadet B category for ages 8-9.
The order mandated revising the results of the third race and issuing new official results. The track director and the three race judges were required to sign to certify the new results and adjust the 2026 season points according to RAAT's directive.
The Super Kart Thailand race committee stated its full acceptance and compliance with RAAT's order.
