Kamui Kobayashi has been revealed as the latest entry for Felipe Massa's annual kart race in Brazil. The popular event, entitled the International Challenge of the Stars, will take place at the Beto Carrero karting track on the weekend of 12-13 January.

Alongside the Japanese driver and organiser Massa, well-known faces Fernando Alonso, Pastor Maldonado and Vitantonio Liuzzi will also compete.

In 2013, the team will field an all-new line-up of Nico Hülkenberg and Esteban Gutiérrez.
