ROK Talk Show: 46,000 followers for the last episode of 2025 dedicated to the ROK Cup Festival
The 2025 season of the ROK Talk Show has come to an end with a huge number of followers. The eleventh episode of this year's web programme reserved for the ROK Cup post-race coverage – premiered last Thursday, 4th December, at 9 p.m. on our Facebook page – reached over 46,000 people (as of 9th December 2025).
Now in its fifth year, the ROK Talk Show continues to grow along with the community of fans who follow it. 2025 saw particularly significant numbers, with an average audience of over 42,000 per episode (+6,000 compared to 2024) and a peak of 51,000 views for the special episode dedicated to the ROK Cup Superfinal.
The ROK Cup Festival was the focus of the latest episode of the ROK Talk Show, which covered the seven categories competing at the Franciacorta Karting Track in Castrezzato (Mini ROK U10, Mini ROK, Junior ROK, Senior ROK, Expert ROK, Super ROK and Shifter ROK). Matteo Bobbi, Sky Sport F1 technical expert and driver with an enviable career in karting, Formula 1 and GT competitions, reviewed the most significant moments of the weekend, together with– as usual – the highlights and interviews with the podium finishers.
Among the drivers who spoke to our microphones, Oskar Hildebranski, who finished second in the Senior ROK class, stated with some regret on his race: ‘Winning would have been possible, but very difficult, especially because I lost a lot of ground to the driver who was second. I was the fastest this weekend, but I was unlucky.’ Federico Zanetti, who led the Super ROK class, had mixed feelings: ‘I knew I had a better pace than Aleksandar Bogunovic. I was behind him for four or five laps, then my tyres reached the optimum temperature and I passed him. From then on, I never looked back. Even if he hadn't retired, I would still have won.’
It was also a perfect weekend for Marco Massironi, first in the Expert ROK class, who summed up his final as follows: ‘I immediately tried to run away to get a good gap in the early stages already, then I managed my tyres in the middle part of the race, keeping a fast but not too aggressive rhythm. In the last few laps, I succeeded in increasing the gap even further. Everything went well.’
Next to to the race reports, there is also room for fun: as always, the ROK Talk Show played with the Rokkers in the paddock, testing their knowledge and instinct about the Vortex single-brand series.
