Commission Internationale de Karting

The Commission Internationale de Karting (CIK or CIK-FIA) is the primary international sanctioning body for Kart racing.[1] It was founded in 1962,[2] and is headquartered in Paris, France. In 2000, it joined with the FIA.[3] Its most important event is the Karting World Championship.

CIK's current president, Shaikh Abdulla bin Isa Al Khalifa, took office in November 2010.[4] His predecessors were Luigi Macaluso (October 2005–October 2009)[5] and Nicolas Deschaux (October 2009–October 2010).[6]
