The 2011 Macau Grand Prix Formula Three will be the 58th Macau Grand Prix race to be held on the streets of Macau on 20 November 2011. It will be the 29th edition for Formula Three cars, and will be supported by the 2011 Guia Race of Macau. The race weekend will also form the final two rounds of the inaugural FIA Formula 3 International Trophy,[1] which had been won prior to Macau by Formula 3 Euro Series champion Roberto Merhi.[2]

Entry list

In order to compete in Macau, drivers had to compete in an FIA-regulated championship meeting during the calendar year, in either the FIA Formula 3 International Trophy or one of the domestic championships, with these drivers given priority in receiving an invitation to the meeting.[3][4]

Within the 30-car grid of the event, each of the major Formula Three series are represented by their respective champion. Roberto Merhi, the Euro Series and FIA International Trophy champion, will be joined in Macau by British champion Felipe Nasr, German series winner Richie Stanaway and Japanese champion Yuhi Sekiguchi, who was a late addition to the entry list after injury ruled out Michael Ho.[5] Four drivers from the GP3 Series, including champion Valtteri Bottas, will also return to Formula Three for the event, and Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 runner-up Carlos Sainz, Jr. is also part of the field, having competed in the Euro Series in order to compete at Macau.[3]

Report

Practice and qualifying

Marco Wittmann set the fastest time for Signature in the 45-minute first free practice session that was held prior to the first qualifying session, setting a lap time almost two seconds quicker than anyone else on a drying Guia circuit.[7] His closest challenger was Prema Powerteam's Daniel Juncadella ahead of Mücke Motorsport's Yuhi Sekiguchi, the other Prema car of Roberto Merhi, and Lucas Foresti completed the top five for Fortec Motorsport ahead of Carlin trio Kevin Magnussen, Felipe Nasr and Carlos Huertas.[7] Owing to the wet conditions, the session was stopped on two occasions; the stationary cars of Hironobu Yasuda and Mitch Evans caused the first red flag almost 20 minutes into the session,[8] with Felix Rosenqvist the cause of the second stoppage.[8]

The first qualifying session saw Merhi on top, again with a margin of over 1.5 seconds to the field. However, his session came to an early end in deteriorating track conditions as he misjudged his braking for Lisboa and ran into the back of Rosenqvist, ending the session for both drivers.[9] Wittmann ended up second ahead of Nasr, Juncadella and Alexander Sims. Sekiguchi finished the session in sixth place ahead of top-placed rookie Hannes van Asseldonk and António Félix da Costa with William Buller and Rosenqvist rounding out the top ten.[9] Following them were Foresti, Kimiya Sato with Richie Stanaway and Magnussen provisionally lining up on row seven. Daniel Abt, who held the lead of the Grand Prix before crashing out in 2010, was next ahead of Jazeman Jaafar, Marko Asmer, Laurens Vanthoor and Jimmy Eriksson.[10] Adderly Fong ended the session in 20th, ahead of Carlos Muñoz, Huertas, Hideki Yamauchi, Carlos Sainz, Jr., Hywel Lloyd, Evans, Valtteri Bottas, Pietro Fantin, Richard Bradley and Yasuda.[10] After qualifying, numerous penalties were handed out.[11] For earlier free practice incidents, Magnussen and Rosenqvist were sent to the back of the field. Rosenqvist was also given a three-place grid penalty for illegally crossing the pit lane exit line, along with session pacesetter Merhi, Asmer and Signature team-mates Vanthoor, Muñoz and Sainz. Yasuda was given a six-place grid drop for crossing the line on two occasions. Merhi was then given another grid penalty for running into Rosenqvist, taking his total drop for the qualification race to ten places.[12]
