Dan Brewer and Wopke Hoekstra to drive second half of the Supercup season

With the GPVWC Supercup season going into the second half of the season, Measuric Racing will compete with a brand new line-up.

Several drivers (like Morten Wersersen and Tobias Olsson) took their chance in the #55 car after Pedro Melim moved to SimCraft for the remainder of the season. However, as was already known in the community, Wopke Hoekstra decided to move to Supercup on a primary basis since the Austrian GP last week.

With the departure of Christof Schgör, yet another new face will arise in the Measuric crew. Dan Brewer, who drove his debut race for ST Racing due to the #16 car being filled by Tobias Olsson, will join the team by driving the remainder of the season together with Hoekstra. Christof Schgör has decided to lay his focus on FSR, meaning that combining it with GPVWC Supercup was not possible anymore.

The team is pleased to have found two proper drivers to fill the vacant seats and we are more than happy to continue the season with Hoekstra and Brewer. Team manager Mike Schroten explained: "We know that both drivers are competitive enough to compete for top-10 finishes and we feel confident that with Brewer and Hoekstra we have a good opportunity to obtain our goals."

2015 GPVWC World Sport Series driver line-up announced

Last year, Measuric Racing ended the season as 7th in the standings with 141 points, 4 podium finishes and 1 victory. Now, we are only a few days away from the start of the 2015 season, which means that it is time to reveal our driver line-up.

Measuric's seats in the 2015 GPVWC World Sport Series will be filled by Sven de Vries and Tobias Olsson. While Olsson drove for the team before as emergency driver in the International Touring Cup, De Vries will make his début after driving for fellow Dutch team Edonis Engineering last year, ending up fourth in the driver standings.

"We decided to go with a new line-up in the series that marked our début in simracing back in 2012" team manager Mike Schroten explained. "With De Vries and Olsson we have a real chance to do even better than last year."

On March 18th the first round of the season will be driven on Circuit de Catalunya.

2015 Supercup car launch

Last Tuesday Measuric Racing revealed their 2015 Supercup car at TT Circuit Assen.

It is the third time that Measuric reveals its career ladder contender at their official test track, where Christof Schgör, Pedro Melim and Wopke Hoekstra drove some laps in their new car. "The livery fits perfectly with my helmet" Melim joked. "With the revealence of the car we are now ready for the first races in Melbourne".

The biggest change compared to last year's livery can be found with the two different types of blue that can be found on the 2015 car. As for the rest not much changed other than minor modifications apart from a new, fresh design.

The livery was designed by Robert Wiesenmüller from Shark Skins. This was not the first time Wiesenmüller did a paintjob for Measuric; last year he designed the Supercup cars as well as the World Sport Series and International Touring Cup vehicles.
