2012 Supercup

 
  • The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix was won by Norwegian driver Petter Kaasa, who extended his championship lead as teammate Rickard Hellsten retired due to technical problems. Hellsten is passed in the Drivers' Standings following another podium finish from in-form Philip Cullen.  
  • Petter Kaasa claimed victory at Round 2 of the season at the Shanghai circuit in China, while teammate Rickard Hellsten could only manage 4th place. Irishman Philip Cullen claimed an impressive 2nd place, with Alex Cooper in 3rd.  
  • After a chaotic start to the Australian Grand Prix, Torrent Motorsports drivers Rickard Hellsten and Petter Kaasa dominated the field and fought a nail-bitting battle to the flag, with Swede Hellsten taking the win. Hawkeye Racing proved to be the best of the rest, taking an impressive 3rd and 4th places.  
  • In another suprise move 2010 Constructors' Champions Draig Racing decided to withdraw from the Supercup and are replaced by Halcyon Racing. At the same time the number of teams is expanded to 15 as Torrent Motorsports are also granted entry to the series.
