The 70th running of the Macau GP (+ Google calendar of schedule)

For the first time in 10 years the Macau GP is run over two weekends again, with the first races taking place this weekend. And the important FIA F3 World Cup and the FIA GT World Cup will race next weekend and also the Motorcycle Grand Prix.

I have made a Google calendar with the complete schedule, which you can find down below.

The Macau GP is one of the only two current national Grand Prix events that are not part of the Formula One World Championship, the New Zealand GP being the other one.

History

The first running of the race was held in 1954 as a club race for local motor enthusiasts. It initially started off as an endurance race where 15 entrants competed in a four hour race over 51 laps.

In 1960 the race was first entered on the international racing calendar, and was subject for the first time to the regulations published by the FIA for sports and grand touring cars.

In 1978 to celebrate the race's 25th anniversary, a "Race of Giants" was organised. Where drivers like Jacky Ickx, Sir Stirling Moss, Bobby Unser, Phil Hill and Sir Jack Brabham participated.

In 1983 the race was first run as the FIA Formula 3 World Cup. Which was won by a young Ayrton Senna.

In 1998 Peter Dumbreck won the closest ever Macau Grand Prix - and the closest motor race in history at that time - when he beat Ricardo Mauricio by just 0.003 seconds.

More history can be found here

Format

As mentioned, the event will be run over two weekends. This is not the usual format but done for its 70th anniversary.

The past years the GT World Cup and The F3 World Cup weren't run because of Covid, this meant the main race was run with F4 cars. And mainly local drivers participated. This year F3 returns with an international field but Formula 4 stays.

FIA F3 World Cup

In 1983 the race was first run as the FIA Formula 3 World Cup. The Formula 3 race used to be more of an all-star race for drivers from several Formula 3 championships or even from other high profile championships.

But recently the FIA has reduced the Formula 3 championships so FIA F3 is the only major one to exist. This means it can now basically been seen as a non championship round for the FIA F3 championships.

This year however, still several drivers have stepped down again to F3 to participate. Formula E Driver Dan Ticktum, is a two-time winner of the event and has returned. Richard Verschoor, Formula 2 driver and the last winner of the event back in 2019 returns. But also IndyCar driver Marcus Armstrong joins the field.

Sophia Floersch also returns to the race to be there for the third time, during her debut she suffered a massive crash where she suffered a spinal fracture.

Formula 4

The Formula 4 SEA Championship runs from 11-12 November and will feature three female drivers. Vivian Siu, Miki Koyama and Bianca Bustamante. Vivian Siu is the only one of these to drive the complete F4 Sea championship this year. The Macau round however, is a non-championship round.

Formula 4 runs qualifying from 08:45 - 09:15 (CEST) on Saturday 11 November and their qualifying race from 01:00 - 01:25 (CEST). And they close the weekend with their main race from 08:40 - 09:20 (CEST)

TCR & GT

Several regional TCR and GT series race on the streets of Macau during the two Macau weekends. The first TCR race at Macau was held in 1972, and this was rare as TCR cars rarely raced at street circuits. Currently it's the final round of the China TCR Championship.

Motorcycle GP

Macau is a special event for motorcycle riders and has been since 1967. Their main race is on Saturday 18 November.

GT World Cup

The Macau GT Cup was added in 2008, and has been one of the most important supporting races of the Grand Prix since then.

The FIA GT World Cup is a race for GT3-spec cars organised by the SRO. This year it will be the sixth edition of the FIA GT World Cup.

Competição mundial de carros de turismo de regresso a Vila Real em 2025

O Circuito Internacional de Vila Real integra o calendário de 2025 da TCR World Tour, a competição herdeira da Taça do Mundo de carros de turismo (WTCR), extinta em 2022, anunciou a Federação Internacional do Automóvel (FIA).

O Conselho Mundial da FIA, reunido no Ruanda, aprovou os diversos calendários mundiais do desporto automóvel, incluindo Vila Real como a quarta das oito provas desta competição, em 05 e 06 de julho.

Este campeonato arranca em 02 e 03 de maio, no México, e passa ainda por Espanha (14 e 15 de junho, em Valência), Itália (21 e 22 de junho, em Monza), Portugal, Austrália (12 e 14 de setembro), Coreia do Sul (18 e 19 de outubro), China (01 e 02 de novembro) e Macau (13 a 16 de novembro).

Em comunicado, a autarquia transmontana anunciou, ainda, o regresso do Campeonato de Portugal de Velocidade às ruas de Vila Real.

“Adicionalmente, regressará a Vila Real em 2025 o CPV – Campeonato Portugal Velocidade, onde encontramos algumas das mais excitantes máquinas e pilotos que disputam provas automobilistas em Portugal e em Espanha. Este campeonato, que junta carros GT4 e TCR, apresenta a melhor grelha dos últimos anos, onde pontuam marcas como Aston Martin, Porsche, Audi, BMW ou Mercedes AMG”, lê-se.

Além destes dois regressos, Vila Real continuará a contar com o Campeonato Portugal Velocidade Clássicos e também com uma prova de Clássicos Pré-guerra.

O 54º Circuito Internacional decorre nos dias 04, 05 e 06 de julho, no ano em que a cidade de Vila Real assinalará o seu centenário.

Além das corridas, estão previstos concertos musicais e festivais gastronómicos.

O presidente da Câmara, Rui Santos, considera que “felizmente tem sido possível organizar anualmente um evento magnífico, homenageando a grande marca que são as corridas de Vila Real”.

“Em 2025 voltará a ser assim, com o esforço de todos os parceiros envolvidos, mas tentando ir ainda mais longe, já que se assinalam os 100 anos da cidade de Vila Real”, sublinhou.

Já José Silva, da Associação Promotora do Circuito Internacional de Vila Real, admitiu “algumas limitações” pelo facto de ser um circuito citadino, mas “o colorido e o entusiasmo do público tornam Vila Real um local mágico, onde todos querem estar”.

O presidente da Federação Portuguesa de Automobilismo e Karting (FPAK), Ni Amorim, mostrou-se “muito satisfeito por ter no Circuito Internacional de Vila Real, em 2025, o Kumho FIA TCR World Tour, um campeonato do mundo que proporciona corridas ímpares e que vai abrilhantar uma prova única em Portugal”.

“Estamos certos de que pilotos e equipas vão adorar competir em Vila Real da mesma forma que o público vai adorar receber estes pilotos e equipas", afirmou.

Além do calendário de TCR, foi ratificada a data do Rali de Portugal (15 a 18 de maio). Ainda nos ralis, Portugal perdeu as provas do Campeonato Europeu, vendo, em contrapartida, duas provas no Troféu Europeu, o Terras D’Aboboreira (01 a 03 de maio) e o Vinho Madeira (31 de julho a 02 de agosto).

Fafe acolhe a última ronda do Campeonato Europeu de Históricos de Ralis, em 07 e 08 de novembro.

No todo-o-terreno, Portugal mantém-se no calendário, com o Rali Raid BP Ultimate, de 22 a 28 de setembro, quarta das cinco rondas do Campeonato do Mundo da especialidade.

Portalegre será a sexta das oito rondas da Taça do Mundo de Bajas, de 23 a 25 de outubro, que será também a ronda final do Europeu de Bajas (que passa pela Baja Sharish, de 12 a 14 de setembro).

A Rampa da Falperra integra o Europeu de Montanha como a terceira das 11 provas e Foz Coa recebe as últimas provas dos Europeus de Cross Car e Autocrosse.

O Oeiras Eco Rally e o Eco Rally Madeira integram a Taça FIA de ecoRallies, para carros elétricos.

Racing On magazine article on the B-ing Mitsubishi GTO N1 racecar. Translation below.

If you remember this vehicle, or this coloring, you may be willing to admit that you have a fair amount of races. Sponsored by Recruit's former employment and career change information magazine, B --ing. The owner is the Mitsubishi GTO with the N1 endurance specification. The owner is Hideyuki Nozawa, a musician known as the nickname for hair crabs. He has been fond of racing since he was a child, and he once dreamed of a racing driver. It's impossible to surpass the worshiping Ozim Clark. " However, he was successful as a musician and looked back on his surroundings. He began to think about the race that he had given up, and decided to participate in the race as a team owner. At the Car Championship (JTC), I was running the BMW M3 with the same color ring as this GTO, but when the N1 endurance series started in 1990, I also participated in this with the Galant VR 4. JTC and NI endurance. The foot straw should have been a significant burden for the privater, but the Kegani Racing did it well, and the following year it was able to survive the JTC Class 2 championship. This GTON1 durable vehicle. is . NI is a vehicle regulation unique to Japan that complies with the FIA-Groove. ”It was a category that matched the actual situation of motorization motor racing at that time. N1 durable late 80's mass-produced car born from Japan. Race power.

It was not the case that the application for approval was submitted, but on the contrary, it was impossible to obtain it due to the problem of the number of production units, and there was a problem due to the country with multiple vehicle types. N1 Endurance paid attention to these points, and by adopting the JAF registered vehicle system used in domestic rallies, it became possible for a wide range of vehicles to participate. The series has been renamed Super Taikyu in 1965 as Super Taikyu in 2 years, but it has been able to incorporate more vehicle regulations and modification regulations from time to time to allow more mass-produced vehicles to participate. In particular, it had a characteristic as a series. Displacement In addition to ST1 ~ 4 classes by drive system, in recent years, ST5 class for hybrid cars and small displacement cars with 1500 or less, STX class for FIA --GT3 vehicles, TIA --GT vehicles ST --Z class, TCR Vehicle ST TCR class will be newly established. The advantage of the JAF registered vehicle system is that it can participate in motorsbots even if it does not have 2500 vehicles per year like the group, and this Mitsubishi GTO was one of these vehicles.

The Tegory division is based on the reflection of the Group 2/4 regulations that have fallen into excessive tuning competition, and is not a post-modification but a basic mechanism of mass-produced vehicles. Was adopted. Group A regulations have been applied to national championships such as the BTC (European Touring Car Championship) and JTC, and regional athletes' rights to the FI (World Automobile Federation), and have been considered mainly by entrant manufacturers, but have reduced performance and cost. It was expected that the Grub N Regulations would be used as a support class for competitions or groups with an eye on the actual participating players. For that reason, the scope of modification of Group N was limited to safety equipment such as roll cages and the minimum necessary for him to participate in competitions such as suspension and brakes. In other words, in order to compete in both categories of Group A / N in an advantageous manner, he can conclude that he should produce a vehicle with a racing mechanism at the time of marketing. However, the FIA ​​requires a group of more than 5,000 vehicles per year for up to two years in order to obtain FIA approval in order to prevent the rise of high-performance vehicles due to low-volume production. When the minimum production volume of 2500 units from 1 year was set and the story was returned to NI endurance, JTC was subject to Group A regulations for manufacturer teams, and it was called a tuner or shob unit. The point was that N1 durability was conceived due to the necessity of racing for privateers, but it was not FIA Group N. Although NI's vehicle regulations are based on the group, the method of official approval of participating vehicles is unique to Japan. The uniqueness of was shown. N1 Durability was established. The number of domestic passenger car production makers for the first time (9 years) overlapped with 9 companies and Bikiku during the bubble period, and the number of car models produced was not as large as that of a few car-producing countries. rice field . However, due to the need for races for the group's public tuners and his privateers on a shop-by-shop basis for all of these models, the N1 endurance race was conceived under Japan's own rules.

Due to the weight and lack of development, this GTO vehicle was one of the strategic Bullline AWDs adopted by Mitsubishi at that time. At first glance, the 3ℓ V6 engine (667 type) with a transverse 4WD system is based on the F20 series Diamante, and in North America, the design was partially changed and the Dodge Ste of the Kreisler brand. It was sold as Ruth. The development was Ai and he was a Chrysler co-funded company, DSM Diamond Star Motors), and the Chrysler Eclipse based on the guarantee (E30 series) was also developed in the same way. As you can see from this North American-focused development process, the GTO was not a sports car with agile athletic performance, but was planned as an all-weather grand tourer with high stability by the 4WD method, that is, the Skyline GT even with the same turbo 4WD. ――The basic character that was completely different from R was different. Unfortunately, it was a little different from the GTO name (Gran Turismo Omologato). In addition, the weight of the vehicle is as heavy as 1700 kg, and the front width 1000 4 / rear width 700, the front-rear weight balance is poor, and even if the weight is reduced within the regulation, he has a great influence on the tires, brakes, turning performance, etc. rice field. But what was more problematic was that, despite the NI specifications, it couldn't be developed as a race vehicle in one minute. Since it was not originally made for Motors Ports, it was placed in an overwhelmingly disadvantageous situation compared to the GT-R, which has abundant various sports parts and setting know-how. Therefore, a model equipped with an AP racing caliber and a model equipped with a Getrag speed manual were released on the way. GTO debuted at Kegani Racing's "90 Years NI Series Round 3 Fuji 6 Hours Race." GT-R 1 unit, Ba JIGTI --R2 unit family 〒4WD 1 unit, And the GTO Hideyuki Chimoto / Sakae Obata of the Horsehair Crab Race Sing) Caran VR -4 (Hideo Ue, Takeshi Asami) has a power distribution of one each, so it seems that the superiority of the GT R does not move no matter who sees it. In fact, the car was not fully matured, and the race retired in just four laps, and the Galan VR-4, which had been used as the main force until then, was mixed with the GT-R. It was an ironic result that broke into the 5th place in the rank class. This flow was continued even in the 9 hours of the close battle in Tsukuba, and while the GT-Rs who were standing side by side dropped out one after another, the Gallan VR won the overall 1st place class. The GTO managed to finish the race despite a big delay. The twisty Tsukuba was one of the difficult courses for a large heavyweight GTO. After that, the GTO was the remaining two races in the 9-year series, MINE. Participated in SUGO 2 race and managed to finish the race at MINE, but retired at SUGO. The next year, the activity was temporarily suspended. However, he returned to the race in 9 years and won a prize (Uehara / Asami). The result shows that the aging was progressing during the period. After the activity of the horsehair crab racing, the GTO was a 5 year TI400km durable PUMA car (Takayuki Oi / Akihiko Nakatani) in the 2nd place overall class. Although it is in 2nd place, it has not been able to compete evenly with the GT-R, and it has become a new Lancer Evo in the position of the top race of the Mitsubishi team. GTO was selected as an N1 endurance vehicle because of the taste of car enthusiast owners, although he was particular about the game as it was handed over to the solution. Originally he was a vehicle that should not have been seen in circuit races, but Japan's unique regulations have been a tailwind and entertained the fans who are excited about the high-performance car boom.

Frédéric Vervisch und das Comtoyou Team Audi Sport feierten mit Audi Sport customer racing auf dem Slovakiaring den siebten Sieg des Audi RS 3 LMS im WTCR – FIA-Tourenwagen-Weltcup. Am dritten Rennwochenende der Saison 2019 gelang dem Belgier im ersten Rennen von Platz neun auf feuchter Strecke ein starker Start. Noch in der ersten Runde überholte er sieben Konkurrenten. In einem sehenswerten Kampf schob er sich in Runde fünf am Führenden vorbei. So gelang Vervisch sein zweiter WTCR-Sieg, nachdem er im Vorjahr beim Finale in Macau erstmals gewonnen hatte. Zusammen mit den Ergebnissen der drei übrigen Audi Sport-Piloten gelang der Marke somit das bislang erfolgreichste Wochenende in der FIA WTCR in diesem Jahr. Mit 74 Punkten sammelten alle Fahrer insgesamt einen Zähler mehr als beim Auftakt in Marokko.

„Frédéric Vervisch und das gesamte Team von Jean-Michel Baert haben eine eindrucksvolle Leistung gezeigt – herzlichen Glückwunsch“, sagte Chris Reinke, Leiter Audi Sport customer racing. „Neben dem ersten Saisonsieg freuen wir uns auch über die Leistungen der anderen drei Audi Sport-Piloten. Erstmals haben alle unsere Fahrer an einem Wochenende Punkte eingefahren. Sehr erfreulich ist dabei die kontinuierliche Steigerung von Niels Langeveld.“

Ähnlich wie Vervisch gelang Jean-Karl Vernay im ersten Rennen ein guter Start. Der Franzose aus dem Leopard Racing Team Audi Sport verbesserte sich vom siebten Startplatz auf Position vier. Sein Teamkollege Gordon Shedden kam vom 16. Platz bis auf Rang zwölf vor. Niels Langeveld vom Comtoyou Team Audi Sport fiel nach der harten Attacke eines Gegners in der ersten Runde mit anschließendem Ausritt ins Kiesbett von Platz 15 bis ans Ende des Feldes zurück. Danach bewies er exzellenten Kampfgeist, holte neun Plätze auf und sammelte so seinen ersten Weltcup-Punkt. Das zweite Rennen beendete er auf Platz acht und war damit zum ersten Mal bester Audi Sport-Pilot in diesem Jahr. Sehr gut schließlich lief es für den Niederländer im dritten Rennen: Vom siebten Startplatz arbeitete sich der 31 Jahre alte Rennfahrer in einem hart umkämpften Rennen bis auf die vierte Position vor.

Neben Langeveld war Gordon Shedden der einzige weitere Audi Sport-Pilot, der in allen drei Rennen Punkte sammelte. Besonders herausfordernd waren dabei für den Schotten ebenso wie für seinen Teamkollegen Jean-Karl Vernay aus dem Leopard Racing Team Audi Sport die ungünstigen Startpositionen, nachdem eine rasch abtrocknende Strecke im zweiten Qualifying für unstete Bedingungen gesorgt hatte. Im zweiten Rennen konnten sich beide Fahrer deutlich nach vorn arbeiten: Vernay fuhr von Platz 19 auf Rang zwölf vor, Shedden von Position 22 auf Platz 13. Im dritten Rennen holte der Schotte sieben Plätze auf und erreichte Platz 15, während Vernay ausfiel.

Den Teams bleibt nur wenig Zeit, um die Rennwagen für den nächsten Einsatz vorzubereiten. Schon am nächsten Wochenende startet der WTCR – FIA-Tourenwagen-Weltcup im niederländischen Zandvoort. Das vierte von zehn Rennwochenenden ist das Heimspiel für Niels Langeveld, der nur 25 Kilometer von der Strecke entfernt aufwuchs.
