The 2016 Porsche Supercup season was the best so far

Finally, in 2016 Robert finally managed to leave a stronger impression in Porsche Supercup and that was his best season so far. He finished 2nd at Hungaroring after starting from pole position and was 3rd at Circuit of the Americas. He was among top 10 finishers in 9 out of 10 races that year, so it wasn’t surprising when he took 5th place in the final classification.
