Macau Grand Prix’s Formula 3 race will, starting this year, be replaced with the FIA Formula Regional World Cup, Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) announced on 22 May.
This means that the F3 race will no longer be featured in the 71st Macau Grand Prix, which will take place from 14-17 November.
Meanwhile, the Macau Grand Prix Organising Committee (MGPOC) has been in close contact with the FIA to coordinate the arrangements for the FIA races.
“In order to comply with the development direction of the FIA, the FIA is making a change to the Formula 3 car model used in Macau this year as it is more suitable for racing at the Guia Circuit. After analysis by the FIA, the relevant event this year will be named the FIA Formula Regional World Cup. Macau will continue to be the only organiser of the aforementioned FIA World Cup event, which will attract top drivers from all over the world to compete in Macau,” the MGPOC said in a press release.
