The 2014 MW-V6 Pickup Series season was a pickup truck racing series that started over 25–27 April in Portimão, Portugal and ended over 17–19 October at the TT Circuit Assen, Netherlands.Шаблон:CN MW-V6 was a part of Acceleration 2014, a series of festivals combining top class car and bike racing with music and entertainment.Шаблон:CN Next to MW-V6, there was the Formula Acceleration 1, based on the former A1 Grand Prix, the Legend SuperCup, based on legends car racing, and the European Stock 600 and 1000 Series, which featured motorcycle racing for 15- and 16-year-olds. To attract young, yet serious, racing drivers, the 2014 MW-V6 winning driver was promised half the budget for the 2015 FA1 season and a test day in the FA1 car, or the full budget for the 2015 MW-V6 season plus an FA1 test.[1] As for the music, on Friday evenings, David Hasselhoff hosted "Celebrate the 80's and the 90's with The Hoff", a dance party featuring 2 Unlimited, Haddaway, Kim Wilde, and others. Saturday evenings saw performances of international DJs.Шаблон:CN
The drivers' championship was won by Danny van Dongen, after he won seven races during the season. He had trailed Eoin Murray by five points after four meetings, but Murray did not contest the final two meetings. This resulted in van Dongen winning the championship by 122 points. Murray, with five wins, still amassed enough points to finish as the championship runner-up, while Alx Danielsson finished third in the series, eight points in arrears of Murray. Danielsson was a two-time race winner at Portimão, while three other drivers took race victories during the season; Jacky van der Ende won twice at the Nürburgring, Daniël de Jong was a race winner at Assen, while Davit Kajaia took a race victory at the Slovakia Ring. The nations' championship was won by the Netherlands, finishing 32.63 points clear of Sweden.
On 22 December 2014, it was announced that the FA1 series would be merged with Auto GP in 2015, to ensure that at least 18 cars participate in each race. The fate of the supporting Acceleration series was not specified.[2]
