Jack Wolff Hurt After Kart Is Run Over at IAME Warrior Final

Medical checks cleared the nine‑year‑old and the episode has focused attention on safety in youth karting given his parents' public roles.

Overview

  • The crash occurred on Friday at the IAME Warrior Final in Viterbo when Jack Wolff's wheels interlocked with Nahyl El Gahoudi, El Gahoudi was launched and Dimitar Uzunov's kart then went over Wolff and struck his shoulder.
  • Wolff was able to climb out of his kart, received on‑site treatment and was later given an all‑clear after medical checks, with Toto Wolff publicly reassuring reporters that his son was uninjured.
  • Coverage of the incident drew on video and posts by motorsport journalist Thomas Maher on X, who reported the initial all‑clear and that Jack pushed to return to racing pending medical approval.
  • Follow‑up on whether Jack raced the next day is inconsistent: BILD says he restarted and finished 10th while other outlets give different placings or report only that he was able to start; that detail is not yet corroborated across sources.
  • Jack recently won the Italian IAME Series X30 U10 title and the crash has renewed public focus on youth karting safety and on how parents and teams manage risk for young drivers.
