GPVWC Supercup

Debut and 2011 season

Racing Team Schroten has made their debut at the 2011 SC Canadian GP. The first meters of the 2011 Supercup car were driven on Zandvoort in The Netherlands by Roy Schroten. At the Canadian GP the team scored their first points with Roy Schroten finishing in 9th place. At the Brazilian GP Mike couldn't drive and Roy finished only 14th. At the Italian SC Grand Prix it was a very disapointing result. Roy drove at the 8th place and Mike drove 11th befor they both crashed out of the race. After the race of Monza RTS showed their new chassis on the track of Zandvoort, the Netherlands. RTS also used a new liverie from that moment for the last four races of the season. At the GP of Spain RTS had a solid race, just out of the points. Roy Finnished 11th and Mike 14th. At the Belgium SC GP RTS had bad luck again. Mike felt out with a gearbox problem. Roy Schroten crashed with Tom Parker. He could finnish the race, although the car was almost broken. He finnished 14th. And then it was time for their home race. Zandvoort is the test circuit of RTS so they really hoped for a good result. And a good result they got! Roy qualified as 13th, After one of his great starts Roy went to the 7th postition. He finnished as 7th as well, just 0.1 sec behind Wopke Hoekstra. Mike was less lucky. He was involved in a crash with multiple cars. He finnished the race at the 14th place. And then it was already time for the last race at Singapore.
