2014 Ginetta GT4 Supercup: Season In Numbers

2 Mins read

The 2014 Michelin Ginetta GT4 Supercup will go down in the history books as a year which produced seven different race-winners, a total of twelve visitors to the podium, thirty-three different competitors and a new champion in the form of Charlie Robertson.

Robertson ended the year as the champion after a stunning maiden Supercup campaign and a look at the numbers shows he was a more than deserving winner, the HHC Motorsport notching up the most wins, podium finishes and laps led.

Alongside that, the 17 year old was the undoubted king of qualifying through the campaign. Taking top six grid starts in each of the ten qualifying sessions, a feat matched by Andrew Watson, Robertson posted six pole positions, a new Supercup record.

One table Robertson didn’t top was fastest laps, vice-champion David Pittard carding the most in a campaign which saw him lead just ten laps less than the champion.

Stalwart Carl Breeze’s dominance at Knockhill meant he secured the biggest points haul from a single weekend this year, while some impressive overtaking from his United Autosports team-mate Luke Davenport saw him gain more positions from his grid starts than anyone else.

A full breakdown of all the key statistics from the 2014 Michelin Ginetta GT4 Supercup season are below:
