Team fields full roster, including newcomer Gianmatteo Rousseau, at final three rounds

ELKHART LAKE, Wis. — Zanella Racing will head to Road America this week for the 2026 USF Juniors Presented by Continental Tire season finale, fielding a full seven-car lineup across Rounds 14, 15 and 16, September 24-26. The Wisconsin tripleheader weekend, held on the 4.014-mile, 14-turn road course, will bring the 2026 championship season to a close, and a lot is still on the line.

Zanella Racing’s finale lineup includes Jared Oselka, Olivier Mrak, Maddie Colleran, Max Mokarem, Gianmatteo Rousseau, Leonardo Serravalle and Victor Couto, giving the team one of the largest entries in the field for the season’s final weekend.

The team enters Road America with several drivers well positioned in the championship standings. Max Mokarem sits second in points with 204, trailing the series leader by 80 markers heading into the final three rounds. Victor Couto (179 points) and Olivier Mrak (189 points) round out the team’s top group in fifth and fourth, respectively, while Leonardo Serravalle sits ninth with 154 points. Jared Oselka and Maddie Colleran are further down the championship standings but will aim for results this weekend in Wisconsin with nothing to lose

Joining the lineup for the finale is Gianmatteo Rousseau, who will make his car racing debut with Zanella Racing at Road America. The Panamanian karting standout brings an extensive international resume to the team, including an IAME World Final Championship and a 2021 SKUSA Championship title — a first for a Latin American driver.

“Road America is always a great way to close out a season, and bringing seven cars to the final round shows the depth we’ve built as a program,” said Jose Zanella, Team Owner of Zanella Racing. “Max has had a great year, and we want to give him every opportunity to close the gap at the front, but every driver on this team has something to race for this weekend. We’re also excited to get Gianmatteo into the car for the first time — he’s got a great record in karting, and this is a great place for him to make his debut.

The season finale will feature three rounds of USF Juniors competition, with practice and qualifying opening the weekend ahead of race action across Friday and Saturday. When the checkered flag falls at Road America, the 2026 USF Juniors Presented by Continental Tire championship will be decided.
