Malta Force GP is a successful sim-racing team competing in the GPVWC Supercup Championship. The team is owned by Maltese driver Jason Muscat.

Early Years

Muscat formed the Maltese outfit under the name of Team Malta Racing in early 2010 just in time for the ERL GP2 series. He started the season alongside Ojay Clark. Clark left the team on good terms after five races and Muscat was left to find unreliable reserve drivers to fill the 2nd slot. Despite this Team Malta Racing managed to score several points and finish 4th in the championship. The team was re-branded to Maltese Thunder for the next season as Clark returned and the team had a relatively successful year scoring good points but no podiums on their way to 2nd in the championship.

GPVWC 2011 Supercup Season

In 2011 Muscat decided to enter Malta Force GP in the GPVWC Supercup Championship. ERL driver Bart De Vos took the first seat and dominated the first half of season taking easy wins. Romanian driver Leontin Nemet quit the season after a few races and Lewis Redshaw was drafted in. Redshaw and De Vos formed a close rivalry and both took further wins before the team clinched the Constructors Championship with three rounds to go.

GPVWC 2012 Supercup Season

After Muscat initially pulled the team out in late 2011 it was announced that Malta Force GP would be back for 2012 as champions and for the first time with an all Maltese line-up. Jason Muscat had stepped down from Superleague duties to partner Virtual Racing Malta Champion Terence Grech.
