The '''Macau Grand Prix''' is a motor-racing event held annually in November in the streets of [[Macau]]. It is known for being the only [[Road racing|street circuit racing event]] in which both car and motorcycle races are held. Every year more than three hundred racing drivers and riders gather for the annual event.

One of the highlights of the race weekend is the '''Macau [[Formula 3]] Grand Prix''', which features many national Formula 3 champions and drivers around the world. Due to the challenging nature of the circuit, which consists of fast straights (a [[Formula 3]] car can reach a top speed of 260mph at the end of this stretch), tight corners and uncompromising crash barriers, the Macau Grand Prix is famously known as one of the most demanding circuits in the world. Many current or former [[Formula One]] drivers have participated in the event early in their careers and some of them have won the prestigious prize. Famous winners include [[Ayrton Senna]], [[Michael Schumacher]], [[David Coulthard]], [[Ralf Schumacher]], [[Takuma Sato]] and [[Riccardo Patrese]].

Since 2005, the double-header '''[[Guia Race]]''', which traditionally features touring cars from world-renowned car manufacturers, has officially become the final two races of the [[FIA]] [[World Touring Car Championship]] (WTCC).


==History==
The Macau Grand Prix was originally conceived in 1954 as a treasure hunt around the streets of the city, but shortly after it was suggested that the hunt's track could host an amateur racing event for local motor enthusiasts. The race continued as an amateur race until 1966, when Belgian driver Mauro Bianchi entered the race with a car by Renault Sport, mostly to promote Renault's image in Hong Kong. This led to more and more professional teams entering the Grand Prix. 

The motorcycle race was introduced in 1967, and in that year the first fatal tragedy struck the race: double champion Dodjie Laurel was killed when he lost control of his car and crashed. This raised the alarm for more safety improvements for the race.

The first Guia race for touring cars was held in 1972. Macau's Guia Race for touring cars is a particular race for this category, as very few races with these cars are held on street circuits. Since 2005 the race has officially become the final two rounds of [[FIA]] [[World Touring Car Championship]].

In 1983, it was decided by the organisers that since [[Formula Atlantic]] was becoming obsolete, the race would be held as a [[Formula 3]] event. Initially, they wanted to run a [[Formula 2|F2]] race, but as they were unwilling to make any large circuit modifications, which included cutting down trees, the organisers settled for F3. This turned out to be a right decision, given the fact that since then it has raised the reputation of the event in the motorsport world by attracting the best young drivers from Europe and Japan to compete in the event. The first F3 race was won by a young [[Ayrton Senna]]. The race in 1990 was a memorable one, as [[Michael Schumacher]] and [[Mika Häkkinen]] were involved in a controversial incident when they were in positions 1 and 2 going into the final lap. At the main straight just after the Mandarin Oriental Bend, Häkkinen hit the back of Schumacher's car and crashed out when he attempted to overtake Schumacher. Schumacher's car was able to continue with its rear wing damaged and eventually won the race with the best aggregate time. Other notable winners include Formula One drivers [[David Coulthard]], [[Ralf Schumacher]] and [[Takuma Sato]]. Since the introduction of F3 races, the Macau GP has gradually become a stepping stone for many F3 drivers to higher class motor-racing competitions such as the [[GP2 Series|GP2]] series and [[Formula 1]].

Macau is a special event for motorcycle riders too. The Motorcycle Grand Prix has featured many famous riders such as [[Kevin Schwantz]], [[Carl Fogarty]], [[Ron Haslam]] and [[Michael Rutter (motorcycle racer)|Michael Rutter]].

[[Teddy Yip]] was one of the main forces behind the Macau Grand Prix back in '70s and 80s, leading the Grand Prix to be one of the world's most famous motor racing events. The Macau Grand Prix parties he hosted for many years at his home also became a central part of the social aspect of the Grand Prix.


==Today==

The '''Macau Grand Prix''' race weekend normally starts on a Thursday and ends on a Sunday on the second or third week of November. The first two days (Thursday and Friday) are generally scheduled for practicing and qualifying. All races are held on Saturday and Sunday, with the final rounds of the heavyweights Macau Formula 3 Grand Prix and the Guia Race (scheduled to be the final 2 rounds of the [[FIA]] [[World Touring Car Championship]] since 2005) held on the last day. Both the Macau Formula 3 Grand Prix and the Guia Race are sanctioned by the FIA and the winner of the Macau Formula 3 Grand Prix is awarded the FIA Intercontinental Cup. Apart from the two major races held at the race weekend, the Macau Motorcycle Grand Prix is also one of the highlights of the weekend since it features former or current racers of the [[Superbike World Championship]]. Other races include the ''[[Formula BMW]] Pacific'' race, and for locals and Hong Kong drivers who want a slice of the action, ''Interport Race'' for novices, ''CTM Cup'' race the experienced.

Newly introduced into the 2008 race is the ''Road Sport Challenge'' for popular sport compact cars commonly associated with the tuner market, Macau GT Cup for GT3 cars.

Races that have been held in the past but have since been discountinued includes the ''[[Asian Touring Car Championship|ATCS]]'' race, ''Supercar Cup'' for road going exotic sports cars, the [[Formula V6 Asia]] race, the [[Porsche Carrera Cup]] Asia race, the scooter race for locals and in the past but on an less than frequent basis, a [[Jackie Chan]] endorsed race for celebrity drivers involving [[Mitsubishi]]s, in which Chan hold a sponsorship deal with.
