Everything is all red, making all the parts blend together. You may want to throw in some grey and use the blue not only for his pants, but also for the cart (so it won't be red and blend with Mario's arms etc).
I'd also like to mention that it's best not to work with pure-white backgrounds, but rather some more neutral colours - especially when using pure white inside the sprites like you do! I usually take some pale green.
I made an example.

I made his skin more yellow- and brown-ish so it wouldn't blend with the cap and sleeves and I used the brown shade for what I assume are his shoes? The tires are grey, the kart itself blue, thus everything is more distinguishable. It's certainly not perfect but I hope you get the point.
Just so you know, it uses the same amount of unique colours. Avoid having multiple shades that look almost the same.
