2018 FIA GT World Cup
 Only 15 entries going for the GT World Cup race in Macau, due to the Nation Cup I think? But we can see multiple Macau winning racers and 5 manufacturers are competing for this year's race. Last edited by smithhehehaha; 18 Oct 2018 at 13:17. |

This race excites me every year until I remember how pointless the circuit is.
This format, at a real circuit, please |

Actually less cars is better for this circuit. No point in having 30-40 cars at the start when things like last year happen.

How great would be a 15 car grid race at Sochi or Dubai...

36 was the grid maximum. Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards. |

I can’t say anything that hasn’t been said before. Feel sorry for Vanthoor though, another big crash.

Ok I saw the world cup races and it was not exciting at all if you are not into watching GT cars run around. No passing. So you either get multi million dollars in damaged cars or a parade. The only change of position the whole race was when Marcellano had his off.
This track stinks. Get GT cars out of there. |

No Ferrari, no Aston Martin, no Corvette and no Ford. They are all racing in Shanghai WEC race instead.
They call this a World Cup just to get promoter's fee from Macau govt. You brand something a World Cup and the Macau govt sucks it up. |

Small grid size could also be a consequence of the absolute carnage that happens every year. No one other than those who supply carbon fibre could think it’s a good thing.

Interesting views about the future of the race:

I wonder if Macau would work better as a time attack event.
