News & Announcements Macau S.A.R. Macau Guia Circuit 11-28 14:07
On November 17, the 71st Macau Grand Prix --- the FIA GT World Cup kicked off at the Guia Circuit in Macau. Due to the rain, the track conditions on Sunday were complicated, and the earlier races were even postponed. The two Audi cars of the Uno Racing team moved forward steadily in the heavy rain. Although the two cars encountered circuit failures and collision accidents, the tenacious "Coolome" and "High Intelligent Formula" successfully crossed the checkered flag and completed the journey of this year's Macau Grand Prix!
Due to the serious water accumulation on the track, the 16-lap race started under the leadership of the safety car. 22 racing cars raced on the streets of Macau. The strong drainage performance of the rain tires gradually improved the track conditions. The race organizers withdrew the safety car in time, and the race officially entered a fierce competition.
Fong Chun-yu performed steadily in the early stages of the race, leading the Silver category all the time and remaining calm under the heavy pressure from his opponents. However, at the Fisherman's Bend, the No. 10 "Coolomee" car collided with an opponent, causing the car to lose control and turn around, losing precious time. Although Fong Chun-yu quickly returned to the track and finished the race, and his opponent was penalized for the collision after the race, his ranking unfortunately failed to improve, and he ended the Macau Grand Prix with the second place in the Silver category. Yu Kuai drove the specially painted "High Intelligent Formula" car forward. At the beginning of the race, due to the failure of the rear rain light, the opponent behind complained that he could not see the rear of his car clearly, and the No. 30 car was recalled to the maintenance area by the race committee for repair work. The team quickly cooperated to fix the circuit problem, but when Yu Kuai returned to the track, he was one lap behind. Despite this, he steadily improved his single lap time during the race, accumulated valuable experience, and finally finished third in the Silver category.
After the race, Fang Junyu, who was driving the "Cool Lomi" painted Audi racing car, said: "This is my 11th time participating in the Macau Grand Prix. It can be said that the whole weekend this year was a difficult and exciting race. As the race progressed, the track gradually became dry after the rain stopped, and the racing line became more difficult to control. I kept defending, but the opponent forced overtaking in an unexpected place, and despite delayed braking, a collision still occurred. Fortunately, I finished the race smoothly."
"After crossing the finish line, it can be said that all the pressure and emotions in my heart were released. I must thank Tarmac very much Works and Sanrio have supported me and put a lot of effort into the preparation of the Coolmi livery. Especially in the past two years, they have continued to support me unconditionally. I am very grateful for everyone's help. "
Yu Kuai, who participated in the Macau Grand Prix for the first time, said after the race: "This year's Guia Circuit is in great shape. The conditions were very complicated, and the whole weekend was plagued by rain. Our first task is to familiarize ourselves with the track and keep improving ourselves. Although I had to pit to repair the taillights during the race, I kept a good rhythm after returning to the track and gradually became familiar with the track. I look forward to returning here again in the future and strive for better results. "
So far, the Uno Racing team has successfully completed the journey of the 71st Macau Grand Prix. The team experienced various challenges during the race weekend, but finally finished the race successfully. In the future, Uno Racing will continue to work hard to achieve better results in various fields.
