Race report

Testing and free practice

The track was damp before the start of testing on Thursday, the session started half an hour late due to barrier repairs. Huff set the fastest time, beating teammate Muller on his final lap. Charles Ng brought the red flags out when he hit the barriers at the Melco Hairpin and came to a halt. [5] After going through scrutineering after the session, the 778 Auto Sport Peugeot was found not to comply with its original documentation from when it was run in the STCC. As a result, the team was excluded from the rest of the event. [6]

Alain Menu led a Chevrolet 1–2–3 in the first free practice session on Friday morning, Tiago Monteiro was best of the rest in fourth. [7]

Huff was back on top in free practice two at the head of another Chevrolet 1–2–3. Javier Villa crashed his Proteam Racing BMW 320 TC at Paiol but the session was stopped early after Fredy Barth crashed at Faraway. Having come to a stop in the middle of the track, the front of the car caught fire and once Barth was extracted from the wreckage he was taken to the local hospital for precautionary checks. [8]

Qualifying

The two championship contenders filled the front row with Huff securing pole position for race one ahead of Muller. Robert Dahlgren topped the first session putting him tenth for race two, Franz Engstler was tenth at the end of Q1 to take pole position for the second race ahead of Michel Nykjær and Huff. Menu was the biggest name to drop out of qualifying in the first session, a late collision with Couto hindering him in the final moments. There was a confrontation between the two drivers after the session before Menu left the circuit. Barth had missed the session having been kept in hospital following his practice crash.

The second session was interrupted by a red flag when Dahlgren's Volvo crashed at the Solitude Esses, like Barth his car burst into flames shortly after the accident. Dahlgren got out of the car but required medical attention afterwards, and did not start the races. When the session resumed, Huff secured pole position having beaten Muller on both his flying laps, Gabriele Tarquini was third while O'Young was the quickest independent driver in bamboo's only car. O'Young and Nykjær were the only two Yokohama Trophy title contenders who made it through to the second session. [9]

Warm-Up

Huff was quickest in Sunday morning's warm–up session. The session came to a close early when Aleksei Dudukalo hit the barriers at Faraway Hill before coming to a halt in the middle of the track and being hit by the Proteam BMW of Ma. [10]

Race One

Huff started from pole position and he kept his lead at the start followed by Muller and Tarquini. Further back Couto spun at the high speed Mandarin corner and collected Menu, the safety car picked up the field at the end of the lap as the debris was cleared. The race was resumed on lap five, Monteiro went straight on down the escape road at the Lisboa corner and dropped to near the back of the field. At the same time, O'Young and Mehdi Bennani made contact and the safety car was required again. The safety car went in at the end of lap seven, on lap nine Dudukalo crashed at Moorish Hill although the race was able to continue. The narrow streets of Macau usually see very little overtaking, on lap ten there were two intra–team battles going on with Engstler getting past teammate Poulsen to take sixth while Bennani overtook Proteam teammate Villa for the final points paying position. Bennani moved up another place on the final lap at the expense of Pepe Oriola as Huff won the race to reduce the championship points gap by seven points to Muller who was second. Tarquini was third to take the final podium spot while Nykjær was the independents' winner in fifth. [11]

Huff then moved up to second place while Engstler lost another place to Muller and moved down to sixth, he was down to eighth by the second lap when he was passed by Tarquini and Michelisz. Huff passed Coronel for the lead at Lisboa on lap three while Muller closed in on Huff by taking fourth from Bennani. The safety car came out shortly after when Kwok crashed at Mandarin and brought out the safety car. The race resumed on lap six and one lap later, local drivers Mak and de Souza came together at Lisboa. Lap nine and Muller moved into the final podium place at the expense of Nykjær, two laps later Tarquini would demote the Danish driver to fifth.
