Italiaracing said so as well, Guerreri might be driving one of the 2 Dallara at Macau

Yes, I wouldn't be surprised to see Guerreri involved. If they can the set-up right with the new chasis, I'd expect him to be in with a strong chance.

quite interesting stuff as they make a far east trip instead of staying UK for new chassis testing in winter.Yeh Guerreri will be the #1 choice of the team as he has Macau experiance,he will be one of darkhorse.

And I have talked to my MSN pal Ricardo Texieira, he said he maybe in the second car on Utimate Motorsports in Macau.

Lam Pak · 29 Sep 2008, 13:29 (Ref:2300347)

texieira wasnt very promising this season. devaney make more sense. life is not fair. the average teenager uses the phrase "it's not fair" 86 times a day. The real world won't care as much as sonangol but will put money in luis sa silva, the other angolan racer in fbmw race.

runshaw · 29 Sep 2008, 22:10 (Ref:2300716)

That's frankly a waste. Teixeira must hold some sort of record for the most number of British F3 starts without scoring a single point. Four years- no top 10 finishes. The amount of money involved with him for absolutely nothing, it's beyond me.

brucelok2003 · 29 Sep 2008, 23:11 (Ref:2300750)

I have asked Jaime Alguersuari, the Carlin F3 driver, and he said he will come to Macau. That's Great!!!!!!!

be patient as Barry Blend from MotorRace Conslutant has rights to disallow anyone to race in Macau who has not good enough,despite you will see some rear-runners from national championships in macau sometime but 'speed demon' is really too bad for that as he scored zero.

Alguersuari and the other Red Bull driver, Brendon Hartley, were always certain to go. What will be interesting will be to see who Carlin have in any other cars they may enter.

N.A-D.R · 1 Oct 2008, 02:44 (Ref:2301638)

Oliver Turvey and Sam abay i believe will get the seat. Or maybe a driver from the f3 euroseries.

**bella** · 1 Oct 2008, 02:47 (Ref:2301640)

so pretty much anyone, you're saying

N.A-D.R · 1 Oct 2008, 02:49 (Ref:2301641)

It can be anyone. But oliver Turvey won the british f3 championship so he is pretty much certain for a seat. And i believe Sam Abay will get the other seat.

**bella** · 1 Oct 2008, 03:04 (Ref:2301646)

he's not won it yet, there's still donington in about 10 days time. plenty of time to have a wobble and there's a queue of people ready to take advantage of any cockups...

N.A-D.R · 1 Oct 2008, 03:21 (Ref:2301652)

oh, i thought the season was over :O. That will be interesting then!

Main Problem for Turvey is he has not $$ for it,he has missed Masters
Abay also hasn't race in Masters so I guess Gonzy for euroseries or some other drivers whose team not make Far East trip

Monkey Head · 1 Oct 2008, 07:15 (Ref:2301707)

Speculation from Angolan Motorsport Forum Revista EKUIPA that Speed Demon has been invited for Macau GP,but it's for FBMW Race,seems he is more suitable for this,at least FBMW has much of vacancies

Monkey Head · 6 Oct 2008, 12:07 (Ref:2305320)

from what I heard Frédéric Vervisch entried with his team Jo Zeller (using the car which Tom driving for sure),determine on Blend's consideration

pericu · 6 Oct 2008, 14:35 (Ref:2305411)

How many cars can bring for team?
Hartley and Alguersuari are confirmed for Carlin. I don't believe that they take Gonzalez, so I suppose that they will choose Turvey and Abay.
Daniel Campos will go 100% secure with HBR, and Basil Shabban also.

I already will ask Dani Clos, but I think that yes, he will go.

brucelok2003 · 6 Oct 2008, 14:58 (Ref:2305423)

will there 35 cars in F3 race?

It would be fantastic if it's true!

Shabban is same case as 'speed demon',I don't think Blend will let him go
for ur question there are no real answer,but I can tell there are 3 teams brought 4 cars to Macau:Manor ,RR and Carlin.
ASM(ART) usally brings 3 cars when they have 4 in europe

Requlation stated that maximun number of car is 34 for pratice and Qualify and 32 for race
however only 30 last year as two pit boxes used by demostration cars(A1 and hairpin stopper GT500 Hybrid Supra),and it costs for sure.

META4 · 6 Oct 2008, 23:31 (Ref:2305707)

I guess Keisuke Kunimoto will drive for Tom's as he finished 2nd in the Japanese Championship ahead of Iguchi

What about Sebastian Hohental and Marcus Ericsson?

wannab-aracer · 6 Oct 2008, 23:53 (Ref:2305716)

I'd like to see Marko Asmer make a return for unfinished business

strider · 7 Oct 2008, 00:41 (Ref:2305736)

Ericsson will be there, but not Hohenthal, unless he is placed with another team.
