Abstract
The focus of this study is to analyse the possibility to adapt an existing local Karting circuit to meet the FIA certification and to have the possibility of hosting worldwide karting events. For this study, we will be choosing a circuit located near us in Catalonia to also analyse how a world-class circuit can improve the economy of the region or boost new businesses. We will start by choosing the selected racetrack and analysing which areas are needed to improve in order to get the certification, later on, we will be choosing our solutions and explaining how it should be done in a future project. During this study is one of our concerns to see if this kind of adaptation could be done to other circuits to save money/time and make future investors invest in later projects and eventually create an ecosystem of circuits, something that already happens in other disciplines like MotoGP.
