Supercup

With around 25% of the 2011 Supercup season gone, Wopke joined GPVWC for a second time, after driving in the Masters Series before. Not many people knew what to expect, but according to a few GPROC drivers, he had a good pace. Therefore it didn't take him long to find a seat at Kernow Sport. The first race on his schedule was the Austrian Grand Prix. The race was a horrible experience for him, as he qualified way off the pace, and had to drive half the race with a FPS rate of 4-6. Because of that reason, he decides to skip the French Grand Prix, but in Monaco he returned with a much better video card, though still finding himself at the back. As the season progressed there was a clear progress in Wopke's results too, despite him retiring from most races. Eventually the progress resulted in two 6th places in the final two races of the season.

Early into the season break, it was announced that Wopke had extended his contract at Kernow Sport. Even though there were some payment issues, everything was fine in the end, and thus he appeared at the starting grid for the Australian Grand Prix. As much as he hated the mod, he was extremely excited. This excitement didn't last long when a massive start accident caused him to retire after just one lap. Due to lack of time, he only raced 11/18 races, of which two races were for the Innervision team, after Wopke broke the contract with Kernow Sport due to a lack of time, which in the end wasn't a right decision. During the season he manages to grab two 10th places and thus 2 points.

After the 2012 season was completed, Wopke announced that he would step back from racing at least until the summer. He didn't keep this promise and got himself a seat in the Formula Challenge just less than a week ahead of the first race.
