By Karting1 ~ August 6th, 2012. Filed under: Kart Racing News.
In the heat of battle all too often the red-mist descends, every karter can relate. In the heat of a close championship WSK KZ2 fight, Jordon Lennox-Lamb found himself tangling with a rival and what followed he may regret for a long time. A video from tKart appears to show a flurry of punches from Lennox-Lamb post-accident which saw him excluded from the event.

So let my eyes replay this . Guy makes a pass a bit in the dirt. a few turn later guy who got passed . Make contact with passer takes both guy off track . And proceed to sucker punch guy from behind while guy is still seated in his race machine. Kid needs some help and some rest from any more racing this year. I would hate to think what a driver such this kid could do in full size race car when you gets up set. There Is no goal in racing world needs this type action .

At least one year ban from all FIA sanctioned events.
These types of actions are punishable by the CIK-FIA and by law in most countries.
So if he gets just a ban, he can consider himself lucky.
It was a bad pass from his rival, but his terrible attempt to retake the position put them in the gravel.
Hats off to his rival for keeping his cool.

absolutely disgraceful.
deserves to be banned no doubt.
keep idiots like this out of sport.
hopefully this ruins his career. sport has no place for people who act like this.
i dont care how good he may be. actions like that in my book are completely unacceptable.
and agree with post above – the rival acted brilliantly for keeping his cool.

I personally thinks he needs life time ban! A message needs to be sent out that this won’t be tolerated in our sport! Zero tolerance!

To be honest I think he has probably already stuffed his career beyond karting, in the PR obsessed world of modern motorsport I can’t see many F1 teams wanting a driver with a skeleton like this in his closet. Definitely needs some anger management if nothing else, and yes I agree, I wouldn’t want to see a driver with that little self control racing a car. 2 year ban at the very least. Lucky not to have criminal assault charges pressed.
I don’t know anything about this driver’s background so it’s wrong to comment, but I also just hate to see overbearing, aggressive fathers ripping into their kids after a race for getting passed. It’s a sport, but unless you win every time out, you spend most of your life getting beaten. Better to learn to deal with it and use the frustration constructively.

This is absolutely ridiculous behaviour from Jordon Lennox-Lamb.
Very well done to the other driver who not only kept his cool after being taken out of the race, but even showed composure after being assaulted.

Funny, Jordan just recently became world champion. Punishment wasnt serious enough!
