Rumour has it that Leyla Hasso is due to attend the Super Mario Kart World Championship 2013 in France in August 2013. If she attends it would mark her 2nd appearance at the event and is likely to join her Uncle as part of Team UK. There is no news yet if any other of their team members would attend.

This was Leyla's 2nd Championship and following a year of hard Time Trialing and some multiplayer practice she was sure to improve greatly on the overall results. Leyla placed 16th Overall which was a 17 rank climb on the previous year!
