'''Pavel Loknovski''' is an Estonian sim-racer currently driving for [[Triple-Double Racing]] in the Supercup. He is also a test driver for [[Nordsjoen Racing]] in the Superleague.

'''Pavel Loknovski''' is an Estonian sim-racer currently driving for [[Innervision]] in the GPVWC [[Supercup]].He is also the team owner of Innervision. Loknovski drove for [[Nordsjoen Racing]] in [[2011 Superleague season|2011]] but struggled to translate his raw speed into consistent results.
  
 +
==Early Sim-Racing Career==
 +
He competed in his first sim-race in 2009 ,when he joined a little league called GPROC which had started its third season.  Pavel raced along with many of his future GPVWC competitors. He was a frequent podium finisher, also managing to win few races on his debut season. He then took part in many other similar leagues until late 2010 when he got interested in GPVWC. He has also taken part in some Race Department racing club races. Loknovski had been using PlayStation 3 game-pad throughout his sim-racing career before finally upgrading to a racing wheel at the end of summer 2012.

races on his debut season. He then took part in many other similar leagues until late 2010 when he got interested in GPVWC.
+
Pavel joined [[Nordsjoen Racing]] before the [[2011 Austrian Grand Prix|Austrian Grand Prix]],replacing [[Samuli Leinonen]]. He made his first appearance as a test driver at the same event. He debuted in Nordsjoen overalls at the [[2011 San Marino Grand Prix|San Marino  Grand Prix]] replacing [[Jyri Lylykorpi]]. An impressive debut saw the Estonian finishing in third right behind former world champion and team-mate [[Joe Consiglio]]. A podium finish was followed by a setback at [[2011 Turkish Grand Prix|Istanbul Park]], where Pavel managed only a tenth after string of incidents in the race. Loknovski continued his point finishing streak with sixth in [[2011 Mexican Grand Prix|Mexico]] and fourth place in [[2011 Canadian Grand Prix|Montreal]], before a breakthrough race in [[2011 Brazilian Grand Prix|Brazil]]. Lining up third on the grid in a heavily upgraded car Loknovski was determined to secure a Norsdjoen one-two. After few incidents and nail-biting moments in the race the Estonian managed to do so and Nordsjoen took their first one-two of the season. This result was followed by a Nordsjoen front row lock out in [[2011 Italian Grand Prix|Monza]]. Another one-two was on the cards but few too many mistakes from Pavel and some trouble with backmarkers saw him finishing behind championship contenders Consiglio and [[Lee Morris]].
He has also taken part in some Race Department racing club races. Loknovski has been using PlayStation 3 gamepad throught his
+
sim-racing career.
+
  
== Masters Series  ==
+
The rest of the season was hindered by lag problems for Nordsjoen's second driver. Lokonvski had to miss out at [[2011 Spanish Grand Prix|Barcelona]] but another podium finish in [[2011 Belgian Grand Prix|Spa]] saw Nordsjoen closing in heavily on [[Red Archer]] in constructors standings. His first retirement of the season came in [[2011 Dutch Grand Prix|Zandvoort]] where the Estonian had been suffering from heavy lag for the whole race, until he crashed into the back [[Christoph Lichtenstein]]'s [[Synergetic Motorsports|Synergetic]] in a fast corner causing Nordsjoen driver to retire. He decided not to drive at [[2011 Singapore Grand Prix|Singapore]] due to lag issues. Loknovski took sixth position with 56 points in final drivers standings with Nordsjoen narrowly missing out on Constructors title.
  
'''2010'''
+
===2012===
 +
After competing in eight races and scoring four podiums in 2011, Loknovski maintained his race driver seat at Nordsjoen alongside double World Champion Joe Consiglio. The [[2012 Superleague season|2012]] was already dubbed as the most competitive season ever in the Superleague with Nordsjoen aiming once again nothing less than both titles. The highly anticipated  season kicked off traditionally in [[2012 Australian Grand Prix|Melbourne]]. After having started from eighth, Loknovski picked up rear suspension damage after slight contact in turn one. However, minimal damage was enough to ruin Estonian's first stint. Tyre wear issues and lost front wing saw Loknovski finishing in seventh in season opener.
  
Pavel debuted in GPVWC in the [[2010 Masters Series season]] where he raced at A1 Ring. He qualified 7th for his first ever GPVWC race. He finished accident filled
+
Next round in [[2012 Chinese Grand Prix|Shanghai]] was a race to forget for the Estonian. A weak tenth in qualification was followed by a terrible start, which saw Nordsjoen driver falling to 15th by the end of lap one. A few technical issues in the race meant that Loknovski finished only tenth, repeating his worst result so far in the Superleague. Nordsjoen's upgrades helped Pavel to improve his pace in [[2012 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix|Abu Dhabi]] where he made his best qualification performance lining up fifth on the grid. A race-long battle with [[Simon Cattell]] culminated on final lap when Cattell overtook Loknovski just few corners before the finish line. The Estonian came over the line in totaled car after last-gasp efforts to retake fifth, which saw Estonian spectacularly crashing in final turn but still finishing the race in sixth.
Feature race in 9th position. In Sprint race he managed to finish 6th with yet again action and accident filled race. Loknovski raced

in a guest car.

 +
Loknovski got a rare chance to fight for the podium in [[2012 Hungarian Grand Prix|Hungary]]. Another strong qualifying performance led to fifth starting position. Avoiding a crash between team-mate Consiglio and [[Lukas Euler]] at the start saw Loknovski climbing up to third after lap one and possible podium was on the cards. However, Nordsjoen driver couldn't keep up with [[Dave Carr-Smith]] and Cattell, and later in the race was overtaken by recovering [[Nick Rowland]], Consiglio and Euler, leaving Loknovski settling for seventh after promising start to the race. Another seventh came in [[2012 Spanish Grand Prix|Spain]] after a rather quiet race. However, after  round in Barcelona, Consiglio announced his retirement and [[Jarl Teien]] was recruited to partner Loknovski.
  
Pavel will be driving in the [[2011 Masters Series season]] for [[Nijo Racing]] alongside with [[Chris Williamson]] and [[Ben Warren]].  
+
While his new team-mate enjoyed front row start in [[2012 Monaco Grand Prix|Monaco]] on his debut, Loknovski qualified by far in his worst ever 18th place. But a strong race pace saw Nordsjoen coming through the field finishing eight and salvaging few valuable points. Yet another eight place finish for Loknovski in [[2012 Canadian Grand Prix|Montreal]] meant that the Estonian was one of only three drivers who had managed to finish all seven races of the season in points. While Loknovski's season was unusually consistent with constant top ten finishes, rumors started to spread about his future in Nordsjoen Racing. His points streak came to an end in [[2012 Korean Grand Prix|Korea]] where he only managed 11th after an unimpressive race. Another non-points finish was close at [[2012 Turkish Grand Prix|Istanbul Park]], but Pavel managed to avenge Cattell for Abu Dhabi on the final lap of the race with an overtake few corners before the finish and taking the final point.  
  
== Supercup 2011 ==
+
The real nightmare for the Estonian started with second part of the season. A 12th place after first lap incident at the [[2012 British Grand Prix|British Grand Prix was just an introduction to forthcoming races. Loknovski expected to achieve best result of the season at [[2012 Italian Grand Prix|Monza]] with track suiting the Estonian driving style. Seventh in qualifying was followed by an early retirement in the race. First, Tom Parker locked his brakes and smashed into the back of Nordsjoen destroying the back end of the car in turn one.[[File:Loknovski vs Parker Zandvoort 2012.png|thumb|right|220px|Pavel Loknovski and [[Tom Parker]] going side by side at Zandvoort.]] Loknovski was forced to cut the track after being forced off it in turn one, receiving a ten second stop/go penalty for doing that. [[Jamez Shepherd]] put an end to Estonian's miseries in turn three when he crashed into the side of Nordsjoen which got beached on a curb after the contact, retirement from the race was imminent.
  
Pavel's first full GPVWC season began at the [[2011 Supercup Australian Grand Prix]]. He achieved 5th place in his debut qualifying.
+
Yet another retirement in [[2012 Belgian Grand Prix|Spa]] after a lap one crash meant that the Estonian had only scored one point in last four races. [[2012 Dutch Grand Prix|Zandvoort]] finally ended the points drought and respectable seventh place finish was a huge relief after number of troubled races. Pavel was unable to take part at [[2012 German Grand Prix|Nürburgring]] and made his debut racing with a wheel at [[2012 United States Grand Prix|Road America]]. A race that went down as the most embarrassing race ever for the Estonian ended with yet another retirement. Having a harsh time in the race in the United States, Loknovski learned his lessons and was in much better shape at [[2012 Brazilian Grand Prix|Interlagos]]. An impressive start saw the Estonian up to seventh but contact with few drivers dropped him to last after lap three. He managed to fight back up to tenth and took his final point of the season.
Loknovski got a perfect start and overtook Leinonen and Jundt off the line to claim 3rd position before Turn 1. He then pursued
+
de Vos and Millar who had a hectic battle for the lead. The pair managed to pull away from the Estonian driver and
+
the standings remained unchanged until Millar lost control of his [[Williamson Dynamics]] and spun into wall losing his front wing. That incident promoted
+
Pavel up to 2nd and he would keep this position until the finish line.
+
  
[[File:LoknovskiMillarDeVosAbuDhabiSC.jpg|thumb|right|220px|Pavel Loknovski locking up rear tyres and spinning.]]
+
Once again Pavel showed promising pace in [[2012 Japanese Grand Prix|Suzuka]] which was yet again canceled out with a lap one crash. This time Estonian had lag issues and was hit by his teammate. Fighting with severe suspension damage in his first stint, Nordsjoen's number two limped to the finish line in only 13th. The season finale took place traditionally in [[2012 Singapore Grand Prix|Singapore]] with Pavel lining up Tenth in the final race of the season. Unsurprisingly the Nordsjoen driver got once again in trouble at turn one. Having been spun around and losing his front wing during the turn one chaos summed up perfectly Loknovski's second part of the season. After what almost became a customary pitstop after the lap one shenanigans the Estonian literally ended his season with a bang. Approaching the final corner, Pavel went over the anti-cuts which launched the Nordsjoen car spectacularly high off the ground and also destroying the engine.
Supercup then moved on to Abu Dhabi where Pavel bettered his qualifying position to 4th. After another great start he overtook
+
Jundt and started to chase yet again [[Bart de Vos]] and [[Sam Millar]]. He wasted no time and overtook Millar on the long straight ,nearly passing de Vos
+
A woeful 30 points in 18 races was below any expectations. Nearly double less points than in 2011 and that with only eight races. Astonishingly Estonian managed to get involved in lap one incidents in six of the final eight races he took part in. After a catastrophic season Loknovski still had few Superleague offers on the table but it is rumored that the Estonian won't be racing in the Superleague in 2013 and go back to racing in the Supercup instead.
as well before he locked rear tyres and spun, costing him several places. He then started to move up the grid ,meanwhile de Vos and Millar
+
crashed into each other which moved Loknovski up by 2 places which meant he was back fighting for the lead. However, on lap 4 in turn one  
+
Pavel double down-shifted which was too much for the engine to handle forcing Estonian into retirement from 3rd position.
+
  
In Suzuka Pavel took his familiar 4th spot on the grid. Having a decent start he kept his starting position and would race in 4th until
+
==Supercup==
the pitstops. After speeding in the pitlane Loknovski got a 10s Stop/Go penalty which meant he rejoined the track somewhere in midfield.
+
He then overtook Jundt which was just a warmup before a spectacular move on [[Liam Hatchell]] in 130R corner. He finished in a lonely 5th position.
+
  
Supercup cars then landed in China where the TDR driver secured his best ever qualifying result so far into season - 2nd. Pavel maintained his 2nd place

Pavel's first full GPVWC season began at the [[2011 Supercup Australian Grand Prix|Australian Grand Prix]]. He achieved fifth place in his debut qualifying. Loknovski got a perfect start and overtook Leinonen and Jundt off the line to claim third position before turn one. He then pursued [[Bart de Vos]] and [[Sam Millar]] who had a hectic battle for the lead. The pair managed to pull away from the Estonian driver and the order remained unchanged until Millar lost control of his [[Williamson Dynamics]] car and spun into wall losing his front wing. That incident promoted Pavel up to 2nd and he would keep this position until the finish line.
[[Nikos Evandgelidakis]]. Loknovski escaped with minor damage and was on a tail of de Vos and [[Simon Cattell]] right after they've suffered from similar accident.
+
The trio once again battled for several laps until Pavel made a good use of Cattell's poor corner exit and overtook him ,however, he used too much
+
throttle too early in the next corner ,which resulted in spin. That mistake dropped him down to midfield. Pavel then managed to recover and overtake his competitors
+
to get back into podium race. With de Vos suffering from technical issues and Cattell crashing, Loknovski got up to 2nd place battling with [[Lewis Redshaw]]
+
for the win. The Estonian driver lacked some concentration in crucial part of the race and ran wide in 3 corners on 1 lap. That meant Redshaw had pulled
+
away from Loknovski and secured win on his debut race, while Pavel accepted eventful 2nd. Loknovski and de Vos were leading the Championship standings both having scored
+
30 points before coming to South Africa.
+
  
After rather satisfying start to the season ,bit more darker races followed. Achieving already third 4th qualifying spot of the season at Kyalami it looked like another

Apart from retirement in [[2011 Supercup Abu Dhabi Grand Prix|Abu Dhabi]] due to engine failure, Loknovski proceeded his debut season strong with fifth place finish in [[2011 Supercup Japanese Grand Prix|Suzuka]] after a ten second stop/go penalty and second place in [[2011 Supercup Chinese Grand Prix|Shanghai]] after front row start and a race-long battle with Simon Cattell, de Vos and [[Lewis Redshaw]] for the victory. A heavy crash with championship leader de Vos saw Estonian finishing only seventh at [[2011 Supercup French Grand Prix|Magny Cours]]. After four woeful races, Pavel's luck finally changed for [[2011 Supercup Monaco Grand Prix|Monaco]]. Having inherited pole position from de Vos who was unable to start due to technical issues Loknovski went on to secure his first GPVWC victory after having long battle with Jason Muscat. Ten points for Loknovski and zero for de Vos meant that the Estonian took the lead in drivers' Championship standings.
great opportunity to get a podium finish. Pavel made a perfect start ,climbing up to 2nd after the first 3 corners. He then had an uneventful race until Redshaw
+
catched him and two of them collided. TDR car was a write-off after the crash and had no chance of continuing the race. Crash was deemed as a racing incident as Redshaw
+
went for a gap that was closing.

 +
Fame was short-lived and things changed at [[2011 Supercup British Grand Prix|Silverstone]]. Having missed out in qualifying, Loknovski had to start from the back of the grid. He had trouble understanding where he was and what he was doing due to fact that he was simply too drunk to understand anything. An unimpressive start to the race saw him having trouble to cope with the track and keeping up with the backmarkers. Somehow he managed to make his way up to tenth or something ,without crashing into anyone. However, his pathetic run came to an end when he double down-shifted in the Becketts corner and his engine or gearbox collapsed. That was the second time he retired due to this sort of error that season.
  
Season then moved on to A1 Ring in Austria ,where Pavel made his GPVWC debut in the Masters series in 2010. Pavel qualified 5th for this race and got yet another great start
+
[[File:LoknovskiSpaSC2011.png|thumb|right|220px|Pavel flying at Spa]]
moving up to 3rd. He was challenged by [[David Jundt]] who was fighting the Estonian driver for several laps before he spun exiting Turn 1. Loknovski then got promoted to 2nd after de Vos
+
After losing his championship lead, Pavel was eager to improve. However, a troubled [[2011 Supercup Bahrain Grand Prix|Bahrain Grand Prix]] saw Loknovski finishing only 13th, his worst result at that pint. No points from last two races was followed with back-to-back podiums at [[2011 Supercup San Marino Grand Prix|Imola]] and [[2011 Supercup Turkish Grand Prix|Istanbul]]. Another podium looked secure in [[2011 Mexican Grand Prix|Mexico]] but after technical issues, Loknovski was forced to retire once again. He was back on podium in [[2011 Supercup Canadian Grand Prix|Montreal]] and a fourth place at [[2011 Supercup Brazilian Grand Prix|Interlagos]] where the Estonian lost third place in final corner after a silly spin cemented second place in the drivers' championsip standings.
crashed in Turn 1. He then had an uneventful 20 laps before de Vos catched him and the two had a fierce battle. A few minor contacts were involved before Pavel
+
properly smacked [[Malta Force]] car from behind forcing both cars to spin, however,both cars miraculously escaped with no serious damage ,although, Loknovski had now
+
fallen 3s behind de Vos and that's how the two finished.  
+
  
[[File:LoknovskiDeVosMagnyCoursSC.jpg|thumb|right|220px|Loknovski crashing into de Vos.]]
+
The Estonian's strong form continued at legendary [[2011 Supercup Italian Grand Prix|Monza]] circuit, where he took his first pole position and second win of the season after going side-by-side with de Vos in Parabolica on the final lap. Consistency seemed to be one of the biggest issues for the young Estonian as he proved in [[2011 Supercup Spanish Grand Prix|Barcelona]] where he lost an easy second place finish with a silly race ending mistake. Loknovski started from front row at [[2011 Supercup Belgian Grand Prix|Spa]] only losing out to home crowd favorite de Vos. A huge sideways moment at Eau Rouge and few other mistakes ruined any chance of a win and Loknovski had to settle for fourth. Pavel was unable to take part in penultimate round at [[2011 Supercup Dutch Grand Prix|Zandvoort]] and retired due to technical issues in season finale at [[2011 Supercup Singapore Grand Prix|Singapore]]. Despite finishing season on a low, Loknovski managed to hold on to second position in drivers' championship with 124 points.
  
Having suffered from crashes for 2 consequent races, the trend continued for Pavel in Magny Cours. Qualified in his worst position so far (6th) ,Loknovski moved up one
+
===2012===
spot thanks to the incident involving pole sitter Jundt. He kept his place after the start and got up to 4th after Bart de Vos ran wide in the hairpin.
+
He then battled with [[Jason Muscat]] for 3rd with de Vos catching both of them in 5th. De Vos found a way past Loknovski and the duo were following Muscat. Approaching Imola
+
chicane, de Vos attempted an overtaking manouvre on Muscat but pulled back into racing line in last second with Loknovski too close to react, 2 driver's championship leaders
+
collided with de Vos losing his Malta Force's rear wing and Loknovski TDR's front wing. Both pitted ,however, de Vos retired shortly after his pitstop. Pavel kept going
+
and finished 7th to score 4 championship points. 
+
  
 +
Loknovski was originally set to drive for [[Hawkeye Racing]], but late driver restriction rule made that impossible. However Loknovski remained onboard as a reserver driver and was back in action when he stood in for [[Jack Nicholls]] at the [[2012 Supercup Abu Dhabi Grand Prix|Abu Dhabi Grand Prix]]. Loknovski managed to qualify in high third position but zeroed all his qualification efforts at the start of the race in turn one, where he underestimated cold front tyres and spun trying to avoid another car. After being almost last after first lap, Pavel made his way up to fifth after several spins and offs in his first Supercup race of the season. Loknovski also posted the fastest lap of the race on the final lap, something he was unable to do in 2011. Abu Dhabi would be his best finish of four starts in the Supercup in [[2012 Supercup season|2012]].

Last race without any drama from Pavel Loknovski was the season opener Australian GP. Things changed in Monaco though ,where he repeated his best ever qualifying result ending up 2nd
+
==Formula Challenge==
on the grid. As the drivers were awaiting formation lap ,de Vos suffered technical issues and was unable to take part in race. That promoted Pavel to 1st and it was the first
+
time when he started ahead of everyone in GPVWC. Estonian driver kept his cool at the start and maintained his lead. At the start of a lap 2 Muscat found a way around Loknovski
+
in Saint Devote corner. The duo kept on fighting for the win for many laps before Muscat suffered minor techical issue which promoted Loknovski back to first. He maintained
+
his lead after the pitstops with Muscat keeping close to Estonian. First win only a laps away Pavel was under pressure by Maltese driver ,with couple of minor mistakes
+
Muscat had closed down on Loknovski before Jason himself made a small error at Rascasse which allowed Pavel to take comfortable lead for final laps. Loknovski made no errors
+
on final lap and won his first GPVWC's Supercup race in Monaco. With de Vos retiring and Loknovski getting maximum points, Pavel took the lead in Supercup Championship standings.
+
  
Everything looked great for the Estonian driver. However, things changed at British GP. Having missed out qualifying Loknovski had to start from the back of the grid. Pavel
+
===2012===
had trouble understanding where he is and what is he doing due to fact that he was simply too drunk to understand anything. An unimpressive start to the race saw him having trouble to
+
{{placeholder}}
cope with the track and keeping up with the backmarkers. Somehow he managed to make his way up to 10th or something ,without crashing into anyone. However, his pathetic run came to an end
+
when he double down-shifted in the Becketts corner and his engine or gearbox collapsed. That was the second time he retired due to this sort of error this season.
+
 
+
After losing his Championship lead ,Pavel was eager to improve at Bahrain. He qualified 5th for the race and after a decent start got up to 4th. As the field approached Turn 8, team mates de Vos
+
and Redshaw made a light contact with Loknovski taking evasive action to avoid Malta Force drivers. He went wide after exiting Turn 8 losing position to Supercup debutant [[Ryan Walker]]. Pavel tried to
+
overtake Ryan for laps until he slightly tapped Walker's rear which caused him to spin. TDR driver then waited for the newest Nordsjoen signing to give back his position
+
which demoted him to 10th. Pavel gained 2 places when [[Tom Parker]] and [[Phil Perkins]] collided ,Parker however managed to take his place back from Loknovski almost immediately, while the latter dropped back into
+
the clutches of Perkins. The duo battled against each other for laps until Loknovski made few minor errors which saw him dropping back from Perkins. After the pitstops Loknovski started to
+
close the gap on [[Ryan Walker]] and [[Alex Cooper]]. Pavel overtook Alex and started to hunt down Ryan with whom he already was familiar with from the early stages of the race. Approaching Turn 8 Walker was
+
closely followed by Loknovski with Cooper not far behind. Cooper however,lost control of his [[Red 5 Racing]] car and slid into Loknovski who lost his TDR's rear wing. Cooper was able to continue the
+
race withough pitting while Pavel had to come in for a lenghty pitstop. After standing for almost 40s in his pit box he exited the pitlane with the car still suffering heavy suspension damage which
+
made the TDR to pull left. Loknovski eventually finished the race in 13th which is his worst result so far in the season.

 +
===2011===
 +
Loknovski drove for [[Nijo Racing]] alongside [[Chris Williamson]] and [[Ben Warren]] achieving eighth in constructors standings.
  
==GPVWC Supercup Results==
+
The [[2011 Masters Series season|2011]] Masters Series proved to be a dismal one for Loknovski. After successful season in Supercup and Superleague, Pavel managed only one podium at [[2011 Zolder Masters|Zolder]] and tenth place in drivers standings. Apart from mediocre performances the season was overshadowed with lots of misfortune and crashes for the Estonian driver. Signs of improvement were shown at [[2011 Watkins Glen Masters|Watkins Glen]] where Pavel seemed to have certain pole position, but due to game bug [[Simon Cattell]] was able to snatch pole from the Nijo driver. A podium finish seemed to be certain in both races but Estonian's misfortune continued and he got taken out in both of the races. After the race Loknovski appealed and was given his deserved pole position back, which proved to be his first and only Masters pole position.

Pavel Loknovski is an Estonian sim-racer currently driving for Innervision in the GPVWC Supercup.He is also the team owner of Innervision. Loknovski drove for Nordsjoen Racing in 2011 but struggled to translate his raw speed into consistent results.

Early Sim-Racing Career

He competed in his first sim-race in 2009 ,when he joined a little league called GPROC which had started its third season. Pavel raced along with many of his future GPVWC competitors. He was a frequent podium finisher, also managing to win few races on his debut season. He then took part in many other similar leagues until late 2010 when he got interested in GPVWC. He has also taken part in some Race Department racing club races. Loknovski had been using PlayStation 3 game-pad throughout his sim-racing career before finally upgrading to a racing wheel at the end of summer 2012.

Superleague

2011

All Nordsjoen front row as Monza Grand Prix is about to start

Pavel joined Nordsjoen Racing before the Austrian Grand Prix,replacing Samuli Leinonen. He made his first appearance as a test driver at the same event. He debuted in Nordsjoen overalls at the San Marino Grand Prix replacing Jyri Lylykorpi. An impressive debut saw the Estonian finishing in third right behind former world champion and team-mate Joe Consiglio. A podium finish was followed by a setback at Istanbul Park, where Pavel managed only a tenth after string of incidents in the race. Loknovski continued his point finishing streak with sixth in Mexico and fourth place in Montreal, before a breakthrough race in Brazil. Lining up third on the grid in a heavily upgraded car Loknovski was determined to secure a Norsdjoen one-two. After few incidents and nail-biting moments in the race the Estonian managed to do so and Nordsjoen took their first one-two of the season. This result was followed by a Nordsjoen front row lock out in Monza. Another one-two was on the cards but few too many mistakes from Pavel and some trouble with backmarkers saw him finishing behind championship contenders Consiglio and Lee Morris.

The rest of the season was hindered by lag problems for Nordsjoen's second driver. Lokonvski had to miss out at Barcelona but another podium finish in Spa saw Nordsjoen closing in heavily on Red Archer in constructors standings. His first retirement of the season came in Zandvoort where the Estonian had been suffering from heavy lag for the whole race, until he crashed into the back Christoph Lichtenstein's Synergetic in a fast corner causing Nordsjoen driver to retire. He decided not to drive at Singapore due to lag issues. Loknovski took sixth position with 56 points in final drivers standings with Nordsjoen narrowly missing out on Constructors title.

2012

After competing in eight races and scoring four podiums in 2011, Loknovski maintained his race driver seat at Nordsjoen alongside double World Champion Joe Consiglio. The 2012 was already dubbed as the most competitive season ever in the Superleague with Nordsjoen aiming once again nothing less than both titles. The highly anticipated season kicked off traditionally in Melbourne. After having started from eighth, Loknovski picked up rear suspension damage after slight contact in turn one. However, minimal damage was enough to ruin Estonian's first stint. Tyre wear issues and lost front wing saw Loknovski finishing in seventh in season opener.

Next round in Shanghai was a race to forget for the Estonian. A weak tenth in qualification was followed by a terrible start, which saw Nordsjoen driver falling to 15th by the end of lap one. A few technical issues in the race meant that Loknovski finished only tenth, repeating his worst result so far in the Superleague. Nordsjoen's upgrades helped Pavel to improve his pace in Abu Dhabi where he made his best qualification performance lining up fifth on the grid. A race-long battle with Simon Cattell culminated on final lap when Cattell overtook Loknovski just few corners before the finish line. The Estonian came over the line in totaled car after last-gasp efforts to retake fifth, which saw Estonian spectacularly crashing in final turn but still finishing the race in sixth.

Battle between Clark and Loknovski in Monaco.

Loknovski got a rare chance to fight for the podium in Hungary. Another strong qualifying performance led to fifth starting position. Avoiding a crash between team-mate Consiglio and Lukas Euler at the start saw Loknovski climbing up to third after lap one and possible podium was on the cards. However, Nordsjoen driver couldn't keep up with Dave Carr-Smith and Cattell, and later in the race was overtaken by recovering Nick Rowland, Consiglio and Euler, leaving Loknovski settling for seventh after promising start to the race. Another seventh came in Spain after a rather quiet race. However, after round in Barcelona, Consiglio announced his retirement and Jarl Teien was recruited to partner Loknovski.

While his new team-mate enjoyed front row start in Monaco on his debut, Loknovski qualified by far in his worst ever 18th place. But a strong race pace saw Nordsjoen coming through the field finishing eight and salvaging few valuable points. Yet another eight place finish for Loknovski in Montreal meant that the Estonian was one of only three drivers who had managed to finish all seven races of the season in points. While Loknovski's season was unusually consistent with constant top ten finishes, rumors started to spread about his future in Nordsjoen Racing. His points streak came to an end in Korea where he only managed 11th after an unimpressive race. Another non-points finish was close at Istanbul Park, but Pavel managed to avenge Cattell for Abu Dhabi on the final lap of the race with an overtake few corners before the finish and taking the final point.

The real nightmare for the Estonian started with second part of the season. A 12th place after first lap incident at the [[2012 British Grand Prix|British Grand Prix was just an introduction to forthcoming races. Loknovski expected to achieve best result of the season at Monza with track suiting the Estonian driving style. Seventh in qualifying was followed by an early retirement in the race. First, Tom Parker locked his brakes and smashed into the back of Nordsjoen destroying the back end of the car in turn one.

Loknovski was forced to cut the track after being forced off it in turn one, receiving a ten second stop/go penalty for doing that. Jamez Shepherd put an end to Estonian's miseries in turn three when he crashed into the side of Nordsjoen which got beached on a curb after the contact, retirement from the race was imminent.

Yet another retirement in Spa after a lap one crash meant that the Estonian had only scored one point in last four races. Zandvoort finally ended the points drought and respectable seventh place finish was a huge relief after number of troubled races. Pavel was unable to take part at Nürburgring and made his debut racing with a wheel at Road America. A race that went down as the most embarrassing race ever for the Estonian ended with yet another retirement. Having a harsh time in the race in the United States, Loknovski learned his lessons and was in much better shape at Interlagos. An impressive start saw the Estonian up to seventh but contact with few drivers dropped him to last after lap three. He managed to fight back up to tenth and took his final point of the season.

Once again Pavel showed promising pace in Suzuka which was yet again canceled out with a lap one crash. This time Estonian had lag issues and was hit by his teammate. Fighting with severe suspension damage in his first stint, Nordsjoen's number two limped to the finish line in only 13th. The season finale took place traditionally in Singapore with Pavel lining up Tenth in the final race of the season. Unsurprisingly the Nordsjoen driver got once again in trouble at turn one. Having been spun around and losing his front wing during the turn one chaos summed up perfectly Loknovski's second part of the season. After what almost became a customary pitstop after the lap one shenanigans the Estonian literally ended his season with a bang. Approaching the final corner, Pavel went over the anti-cuts which launched the Nordsjoen car spectacularly high off the ground and also destroying the engine.

A woeful 30 points in 18 races was below any expectations. Nearly double less points than in 2011 and that with only eight races. Astonishingly Estonian managed to get involved in lap one incidents in six of the final eight races he took part in. After a catastrophic season Loknovski still had few Superleague offers on the table but it is rumored that the Estonian won't be racing in the Superleague in 2013 and go back to racing in the Supercup instead.

Supercup

2011

De Vos and Loknovski fighting for the 2nd place at A1-Ring.

Pavel's first full GPVWC season began at the Australian Grand Prix. He achieved fifth place in his debut qualifying. Loknovski got a perfect start and overtook Leinonen and Jundt off the line to claim third position before turn one. He then pursued Bart de Vos and Sam Millar who had a hectic battle for the lead. The pair managed to pull away from the Estonian driver and the order remained unchanged until Millar lost control of his Williamson Dynamics car and spun into wall losing his front wing. That incident promoted Pavel up to 2nd and he would keep this position until the finish line.

Apart from retirement in Abu Dhabi due to engine failure, Loknovski proceeded his debut season strong with fifth place finish in Suzuka after a ten second stop/go penalty and second place in Shanghai after front row start and a race-long battle with Simon Cattell, de Vos and Lewis Redshaw for the victory. A heavy crash with championship leader de Vos saw Estonian finishing only seventh at Magny Cours. After four woeful races, Pavel's luck finally changed for Monaco. Having inherited pole position from de Vos who was unable to start due to technical issues Loknovski went on to secure his first GPVWC victory after having long battle with Jason Muscat. Ten points for Loknovski and zero for de Vos meant that the Estonian took the lead in drivers' Championship standings.

Warren, Loknovski, Parker & Walker going 4 abreast at Interlagos.

Fame was short-lived and things changed at Silverstone. Having missed out in qualifying, Loknovski had to start from the back of the grid. He had trouble understanding where he was and what he was doing due to fact that he was simply too drunk to understand anything. An unimpressive start to the race saw him having trouble to cope with the track and keeping up with the backmarkers. Somehow he managed to make his way up to tenth or something ,without crashing into anyone. However, his pathetic run came to an end when he double down-shifted in the Becketts corner and his engine or gearbox collapsed. That was the second time he retired due to this sort of error that season.

Pavel flying at Spa

After losing his championship lead, Pavel was eager to improve. However, a troubled Bahrain Grand Prix saw Loknovski finishing only 13th, his worst result at that pint. No points from last two races was followed with back-to-back podiums at Imola and Istanbul. Another podium looked secure in Mexico but after technical issues, Loknovski was forced to retire once again. He was back on podium in Montreal and a fourth place at Interlagos where the Estonian lost third place in final corner after a silly spin cemented second place in the drivers' championsip standings.

The Estonian's strong form continued at legendary Monza circuit, where he took his first pole position and second win of the season after going side-by-side with de Vos in Parabolica on the final lap. Consistency seemed to be one of the biggest issues for the young Estonian as he proved in Barcelona where he lost an easy second place finish with a silly race ending mistake. Loknovski started from front row at Spa only losing out to home crowd favorite de Vos. A huge sideways moment at Eau Rouge and few other mistakes ruined any chance of a win and Loknovski had to settle for fourth. Pavel was unable to take part in penultimate round at Zandvoort and retired due to technical issues in season finale at Singapore. Despite finishing season on a low, Loknovski managed to hold on to second position in drivers' championship with 124 points.

2012

Loknovski was originally set to drive for Hawkeye Racing, but late driver restriction rule made that impossible. However Loknovski remained onboard as a reserver driver and was back in action when he stood in for Jack Nicholls at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Loknovski managed to qualify in high third position but zeroed all his qualification efforts at the start of the race in turn one, where he underestimated cold front tyres and spun trying to avoid another car. After being almost last after first lap, Pavel made his way up to fifth after several spins and offs in his first Supercup race of the season. Loknovski also posted the fastest lap of the race on the final lap, something he was unable to do in 2011. Abu Dhabi would be his best finish of four starts in the Supercup in 2012.

Masters Series

2010

Pavel debuted in GPVWC in the 2010 Masters Series season where he raced at A1 Ring. He qualified 7th for his first ever GPVWC race. He finished accident filled feature race in ninth position. In the sprint race he managed to finish sixth with yet again action and accident filled race. Loknovski raced in a guest car.

Loknovski and Mark Stanton collide in spectacular fashion

2011

Loknovski drove for Nijo Racing alongside Chris Williamson and Ben Warren achieving eighth in constructors standings.

The 2011 Masters Series proved to be a dismal one for Loknovski. After successful season in Supercup and Superleague, Pavel managed only one podium at Zolder and tenth place in drivers standings. Apart from mediocre performances the season was overshadowed with lots of misfortune and crashes for the Estonian driver. Signs of improvement were shown at Watkins Glen where Pavel seemed to have certain pole position, but due to game bug Simon Cattell was able to snatch pole from the Nijo driver. A podium finish seemed to be certain in both races but Estonian's misfortune continued and he got taken out in both of the races. After the race Loknovski appealed and was given his deserved pole position back, which proved to be his first and only Masters pole position.
