Triple Vod:Bul was an English Supercup team, ran by Mike Pitman, which competed in the 2006 Supercup season, back when the series was known as the "F2VWC". It was the second of three Vod:Bul Racing sister teams that competed alongside the main F2 team and even beat the main team in the constructor's championship. Despite not being as successful as the Double Vod:Bul team, Triple Vod:Bul still obtained a pole and three podiums.

History

Triple Vod:Bul's car

2006

The team competed in most races that year, but were absent from the Spanish, French and Belgian races, and suffered both cars failing to start the British Grand Prix.

The team ran Argentine HOWC star Iván Cantero who competed in 7 of the 12 rounds. Unfortunately being disqualified from the opening round at Gibraltar, retiring at Monaco and failing to start at Britain and Hungary, Cantero otherwise finished every race on the podium, with a 2nd at Imola as well as a pole and podium finish at Monza.

The team also ran Martin Buchan for two races; Buchan finished 5th at Imola but, like Cantero, did not make the start of the British Grand Prix. Dutchman Daniël Bolman, who up to that point had been racing for Double Vod:Bul, was transferred in for the German Grand Prix, where he finished 11th, but unfortunately retired from the next two races.
