Press Message: 2016 Atlantic Series Champions?

Tonight marks one of the team's most exciting races as the GPVWC.com Atlantic Series takes over The Circuit of the Americas.
It is the final round of the season and the team is currently 54 points in front of main opponent YTF1. It thus could be the day that marks our first constructor's championship!
Additionally, Wopke Hoekstra still has a shot at becoming the driver's champion as well. Being only 17 points behind on Borja Millan, he could still win the championship if Borja has an off-day. In addition, Dino Paolini has a firm grip on P3 in the standings.
We for sure will be watching at the edge of our seat, will you? Qualification starts around 19:30 GMT and everything is covered by the broadcast team via the Youtube channel of GPVWC.com.

2016 GPVWC Supercup: Mixture of experience and new talent

This week the new GPVWC Supercup season starts off. Measuric Racing begins the season with a new primary driver line-up, as Wopke Hoekstra decided to step down to a reserve seat at the team.


With Hoekstra stepping down, opportunities came for a new tactic concerning the primary drivers. This resulted in a mixture of both new talent from outside the league, and an experienced driver to fill the Measuric cars. Experience was found with Mark Wicks, who has been with the league for over a decade. New talent came to the team in the form of Dino Paolini, who is new to the league, but not to simracing. After the Australian Grand Prix (Wednesday 24 February) we will further introduce our drivers.

Because another important introduction is the 2016 livery, painted by Robert Wiesenmüller of Shark Skins. "Robert has driven for Measuric Racing in the past and thus far designed all of our cars since 2014" team manager Mike Schroten explains. "Once again he created a beautiful design for our Supercup contender, with which I am sure we can improve last year's result (P.8)".
