Answer
Hello my friend.
You can get biogs of the internet pretty easily I am sure. Both will be in F1 next year, Kubica at BMW (was Sauber) and Speed in a Red Bull (Scuderia Torro Rosso).
For Speed see:

For Kubica see:

Regarding sponsorship, I thought I covered this in my last answer (employers, local media, local motor factors, scholarships, family friends etc.) Other ideas are sponsorship in kind (tires, parts, lubricants, fuel etc), where the supplier gives you these free or at reduced prices in exchange for advertising and promotion. As a season's racing can be expensive, this is no bad thing, every little helps.

Regarding which championships to go for, I alluded to this in my last answer too. To get on you must get into the higher profile races, I think there are classes by driver age, region, track type and kart type, so a little research (and professional advice) is in order to target what you want from 2007 season and 2008. It's OK to talk with event organisers, the karting federation and the karting press for advice. I gave you some references and thought starters in my earlier answer.

All the best Jacob,
Adam
