The FEL Emzone Radical Cup Canada presented by Michelin (RCC) held 11 races across five weekends in 2024. Kenny Riedmann claimed the overall championship in the series’ fourth season, while Tim Sanderson took home the inaugural Masters class title.
Riedmann led the first 23 laps of the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park (CTMP) opener, before being collected by a spinning car, leading to a DNF; he bounced back to win the second race of the Victoria Day weekend but found himself in an early points deficit after the mixed results.
A pair of runner-up finishes to Owen Clarke at Calabogie Motorsports Park saw him fall to 29 points back in the championship battle, before a trio of victories on the Streets of Toronto, in a combined grid with Radical Cup North America, helped give him the points lead.
Riedmann swept a pair of races at CTMP before the series’ first ever trip to Piste Mont-Tremblant for finale weekend. Riedmann had a DNF in the opening non-points race, while adjusting to the track’s noise restrictions, before a runner-up finish in the finale secured the three-time CSBK motorcycle champion’s first FEL RCC title.
We interviewed Riedmann about his 2024 season on Inside Track TV:
New for 2024 was an RCC Masters class, for drivers aged 40 and older; the championship battle went down to the wire, with veteran road racer Tim Sanderson recording the inaugural title.
Sanderson had a strong start to the season, winning five of the first six races between CTMP, Calabogie and Toronto, before a DNF in the third Toronto race dropped him 20 points behind Robert Burgess in the championship standings.
The two drivers each recorded podiums at CTMP, before a win by Sanderson in the Mont-Tremblant finale, combined with a DNF for Burgess, gave the driver his first FEL championship. We interviewed Sanderson for Inside Track TV during the CASC-OR Celebration of Motorsport weekend:
