1954
The first Macau Grand Prix, held on November 1, saw 15 entrants compete in a four hour race over 51 laps of the 3.9 mile Guia circuit. Eddie Carvalho's Triumph TR 2 took victor's laurels in the inaugural event while Gordon 'Dinga' Bell set a fastest lap of 4:12.00 in his Morgan. The circuit left much to be desired however, and the official stewards report noted the "back of the circuit is very bad - mostly dirt and loose sand."

1955
During the spring and early summer of 1955, the entire back section of the circuit was closed to traffic so that its old cobbles could be dug up and replaced with asphalt. Hong Kong's Robert Ritchie won the second, 60-lap Macau Grand Prix in his Austin Healey 100 in a time of 3:55.55.7. Less than a second behind was the Mercedes 190 SL of Douglas Steane with third place going to Neville Fullford in a Triumph TR 2.

1956
The third Macau Grand Prix saw the construction of a permanent concrete grandstand which incorporated 10 pits and seating for 300. The 77-lap race was won by Douglas Steane in a Mercedes 190 SL, with his nearest rivals more than two laps behind.

1957
The race programme of the fourth running of the Macau Grand Prix featured a 100 Mile Handicap Race, won by Pan Am pilot George Baker, a Ladies Race and a Novice Race. The 77-lap Grand Prix was won by Arthur Pateman in a Mercedes 300, who also set a new lap record of 3:25.50.

1958
The Guia circuit was reduced to its present length of 3.8 miles for the fifth Grand Prix which also saw the introduction of the 15-lap ACP Trophy Race. A total of 31 cars, the largest field so far, were entered in the Grand Prix, which had been reduced to 60 laps to avoid the glare of the late afternoon sun. Singapore's Chan Lye-choon won the Grand Prix in an Aston Martin DB 3S.

1959
The programme for the sixth Macau Grand Prix was expanded to include official practice sessions for the first time. Hong Kong's Ron Hardwick took an early lead in the Grand Prix but the race was red flagged when an overloaded steel footbridge collapsed, injuring 21 spectators. Hardwick led the field away from the restart and stormed to victory in his Jaguar XKSS, setting a new lap record of 3:24.10. A lap behind in second place was Australian Bill Wyllie in a DKW 1000 RS and third was Chan Lye-choon's Aston Martin DB 3S. Carol Ungricht won the final running of the Ladies Race in her MGA.

1960
The Macau Grand Prix was, for the first time, entered on the international racing calendar as a "national race with foreign participation," and was subject for the first time to the regulations published by the FIA for sports and grand touring cars. Scottish driver Martin Redfern, in his Jaguar XK SS, took victory in the seventh Macau Grand Prix with a time of 3:27:24.4. American Grant Wolfkill was second in a Porsche Spyder and Briton Jan Bussell was third in a Ferrari Monza. The 60-lap race saw the existing lap record broken 11 times in all - four times by Redfern, twice by Bussell and five times by Wolfkill, who set the new lap record of 3:17.20.

1961
Thailand's Peter Heath, who along with Chan Lye-choon had almost been excluded from the event when the scrutineers failed their cars, went on to win the eighth Grand Prix in his Lotus 15. 26 seconds adrift was Bill Baxter in his brand new E-Type Jaguar, while Heinz Gosslar's Porsche Carrera finished third, one lap behind.

1962
On his second outing at Macau, popular Filipino driver Arsenio "Dodgie" Laurel won the Grand Prix in his Lotus 22 Ford FJ and set a new lap record of 3:10.1. Second was Don Bennett in a Lotus S7, and third was Hong Kong's Albert Poon, on the first of many visits to the Macau Grand Prix rostrum.

1963
With his 1963 victory, Dodgie Laurel became the first driver to win two consecutive Grands Prix. His Lotus also became the fastest car ever on the Guia circuit when it hit a top speed of 73.38 mph mid-way through the race. The Jaguar E-types of Bill Baxter and Teddy Yip, although four laps behind, were second and third respectively.

1964
The 11th Macau Grand Prix saw an all-Lotus top three when Hong Kong's Albert Poon took victor's laurels in his Lotus 23, followed by John Kirk in a Lotus Elan and Steve Holland in a Lotus 18 Ford FJ. Poon also set a new lap record of 3:05.40. Argentine rally champion Eugen Bohringer won the 60-lap Production Car Race in a Mercedes 300 SE.

1965
Of the record 40 entries received, only 24 would take the start of the 1965 Grand Prix. After a poor start, victory went to Hong Kong garage owner John MacDonald in his Lotus 18. He was followed closely by film-maker Grant Wolfkill in an E-Type Jaguar with Singapore-based Flt. Lt. Tony Goodwin's Lotus Elite in third. Poleman Albert Poon set a fastest lap of 3:07.60 before having to retire.

1966
By 1966, the Macau Grand Prix's reputation had spread to Europe and for the first time an "imported" driver, in the form of Italy's Mauro Bianchi, won the event. Bianchi, in a Renault Alpine, drove 60 laps of the Guia circuit in a time of 3:12:23.20 and set a new lap record of 2:59.80. Albert Poon also set a record for number of Grand Prix rostrum visits when he placed second in his Lotus 23, while the Porsche Carrera of Japanese driver Shintiro Taki took third.

1967
The first running of the Macau Motor Cycle Grand Prix saw Japan's Hiroshi Hasegawa take the chequered flag when his Yamaha RD 56 completed 30 laps of the Guia circuit in a time of 1:53:34.00. The Grand Prix also saw its first fatality when the car driven by race favourite Dodgie Laurel crashed and caught fire. The race was not stopped, although Teddy Yip withdrew his entry in sympathy, and was eventually won by Tony Maw of Malaysia in a Lotus 20B.

1968
With the appearance of Japanese drivers Osamu Mochizuki and Osamu Masuko in their beautifully prepared Formula 2 Mitsubishi Colts, the event saw the debut of its first true single seater works team. Albert Poon in a Brabham Alfa took pole position for the 45-lap Grand Prix, with the two Mitsubishi Colts lining up next to him on the front row. Poon led for much of the race, but gearbox failure on lap 35 put the lead, and the win, into the hands of Singapore's Jan Bussell in a Brabham F2, while Japanese bike ace Hiroshi Hasegawa won the Macau Motor Cycle Grand Prix for the second successive year.

1969
John MacDonald became the first - and only - man ever to have won both the Macau Grand Prix (1965) and the Macau Motor Cycle Grand Prix. Riding a Yamaha, MacDonald's winning time over 30 laps of the circuit was 1:45:31.50. Australian Kevin Bartlett took victor's laurels in the 16th Macau Grand Prix in his Mildren Waggott and set a fastest lap of 2:39.03.

1970
Austrian Dieter Quester, driving a BMW Formula 2, won the 17th Macau Grand Prix, three laps ahead of second place man Albert Poon's Brabham BT30. Singapore's Anne Wong won the 20-lap Touring Car Race in a Mini-Cooper S and Indonesia's Benny Hidajat, riding a Yamaha YSI, took the chequered flag in the fourth Motor Cycle Grand Prix.

1971
Crack German driver Dieter Glemser, in a factory Ford Capri RS, won the 20-lap Production Car Race by more than two minutes over his nearest rival. Japanese riders O. Motohashi and S. Minuro swept the 54-strong field to take top honours in the fifth Motor Cycle Grand Prix, both on factory Yamahas. The 18th Macau Grand Prix saw 29 cars on the grid, with victory going, for a second time, to Jan Bussell, with Japan's Riki Ohkubo in second and fellow countryman Ken Misaki in third.

1972
John MacDonald made history when he won the first running of the Guia Race (originally run over 201.4 miles, the race was then known as the "Guia 200") in an Austin Cooper and the same year won the Grand Prix in a Brabham BT36. MacDonald's win made him the only competitor to have won all three international events. Japanese Yamaha riders took the top three spots on the Motor Cycle GP rostrum with victory going to Ikujiro Takai, second place to Yutaka Oda, and third to Akira Teuri.

1973
Hong Kong's John MacDonald, won his third Grand Prix in 1973 driving a Brabham BT 40, followed by Indonesian Sonny Rajah and Singapore's Graeme Lawrence. More than 100 entries were received for the seventh Motor Cycle Grand Prix, won by Japan's Ken Araoka on a Suzuki. Araoka also set a new lap record of 2:56.68, the first rider to lap the Guia Circuit in under three minutes. To accommodate the huge number of entries, the Macau Grand Prix introduced a six-lap "Organiser's Trophy Race" for non-qualifiers in the Motor Cycle GP.

1974
Australian Vern Schuppan drove to a run-away victory in the Grand Prix, setting a new lap record of 2:30.96 and taking the chequered flag in his March 722 more than four laps ahead of second placed David Purley and five laps ahead of Herb Adamczyk. Japan's Nobuhide Tachi won the 53-lap Guia Race in his Toyota Celica TA and fellow countryman Kawasaki Hiroyuki rode his Yamaha to victory in the eighth Motor Cycle GP.

1975
With his win in the 21st Macau Grand Prix John MacDonald became the Macau Grand Prix's most victorious driver with wins in the 1965, 1972, 1973 and 1975 events. Nobuhide Tachi won the Guia Race for the second year running and the top three places in the 25-lap Motor Cycle GP went to Japanese riders Hideo Kanaya, Ken Araoka and Sadeo Asami.

1976
British bike ace Chas Mortimer finally broke the Japanese stranglehold on the Motor Cycle Grand Prix with his victory in 1976. Theodore Racing's Vern Schuppan won his second Grand Prix in a Ralt, but it was team mate Alan Jones who stole the show when he set a scorching lap record of 2:21.44 in his March - a record which would stand unbroken for the next eight years. Following in the footsteps of her record-setting husband Albert, Diana Poon, became the first woman to drive a single seater on the Guia circuit. Popular Hong Kong driver Herb Adamczyk took victor's laurels in the 40-lap Guia Race in his Porsche Carrera RS and for the first time, the Macau Grand Prix was run as a FIA-recognised event.

1977
Italy's Ricardo Patrese drove his Team Harper Chevron to a decisive victory in the 40-lap Grand Prix, run to FIA Formula Pacific regulations. Kiwi Steve Millen was second and Australian Andrew Medicke was third. Peter Chow won the Guia Race, and set a new lap record of 2:52.50, in his Toyota Celica and Kawasaki UK rider Mick Grant smashed the Motor Cycle GP lap record when he rode the 3.8 miles of the Guia Circuit in 2:48.38 on his way to victory.

1978
In honour of the 25th Macau Grand Prix, Macau's most famous motor sport personality Teddy Yip organised the "Race of Giants." All the truly big names were in Macau that year - Jack Brabham, Mike Hailwood, Jackie Stewart Phil Hill, Dan Gurney and, eventual race winner, Jacky Ickx. Ricardo Patrese and Derek Daly took the top two positions on the Grand Prix rostrum, while Kevin Cogan was third. Yamaha riders took the top three honours in the Motor Cycle GP, with Sadeo Asami and Steve Parrish in first and second respectively while British rider Mike Trimby, organiser of the present day Motor Cycle GP entries, was third. Peter Chow's Toyota Celica set a new lap record of 2:44.82 and won overall victory, for the second year running in the Guia Race.

1979
For the first time, the Motor Cycle GP was run in two legs of 15 laps each; Sadeo Asami, riding a Yamaha TZ-OW, was the clear winner of both legs while Steve Parrish was second on points, and Bernard Murray, third. Herb Adamczyk took the chequered flag in the Guia Race, followed by Japan's Masahiro Hasemi and countryman Nobuhide Tachi. Geoff Lees' Theodore Racing March Ford took victory in the Grand Prix over Ricardo Patrese.

1980
The Grand Prix was nominated as the first Formula Pacific Championship, with poleman Geoff Lees taking victory for Theodore Racing for the second year. Masahiro Hasemi was second in his March Nissan and American Tom Gloy's Ralt was third. Sadeo Asami was making history as well when his win in the 14th Motor Cycle Grand Prix made him the only competitor to win the same event three consecutive years. British bike aces Steve Parrish and Bernard Murray repeated their second and third place finishes of the year before and Hans Stuck drove his BMW 320 to victory in the Guia Race.

1981
American Bob Earl took victory in the 28th Grand Prix with Japan's Naohiro Fujita in second and Briton Ray Mallock in third. The Guia Race, in which former U.K. Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's son Mark competed, was won by the late Manfred Winkelhock. In the Motor Cycle Grand Prix, a new star was on the horizon in the form of "Rocket" Ron Haslam, who took victory in the 30 lap race in 1:22:57.75, followed by Sadeo Asami in second and Dutchman Boet Van Dulmen in third.

1982
Despite the wet and windy conditions the Guia circuit's newest sensation, Ron Haslam, took pole position - and won the Motor Cycle GP - for the second consecutive year. Charlie Williams clocked in a lap time of 2:35.76, setting a new record - one which stood for a decade. Brazilian Roberto Moreno drove to Grand Prix victory in this, the last race in the short-lived Formula Pacific Championship. Columbian Roberto Guerrero smashed Alan Jones' record when he lapped the circuit in 2:20.64 in his Theodore Racing Ralt RT4 Ford. Hong Kong drivers Helmet Greiner, Adrian Fu and Peter Chow took the top three positions in the Guia Race.

1983
The 30th Macau Grand Prix was another landmark year for the event with its nomination as the FIA Formula 3 World Cup. Strongly supported by Teddy Yip's Theodore Racing, a young Brazilian driver, then known as Ayrton Senna da Silva, took victory in this first Formula 3 Grand Prix. Senna was followed home by Roberto Guerrero and Gerhard Berger. Ron Haslam's victory on his Honda 500 in the Motor Cycle GP saw him equal Sadeo Asami's record of three consecutive wins. In the Guia Race, Hans Stuck and Dieter Quester battled it out with Hong Kong driver Michael Lieu, with victory going to Stuck, second to Quester and third to Lieu.

1984
The 31st Grand Prix saw Denmark's John Nielsen drive a remarkable race to snatch the win from pole man Stefan Johansson, with New Zealander Mike Thackwell in third. Ron Haslam's non-appearance in the Motor Cycle Grand Prix left the field wide open, with Mick Grant taking overall victory on his Suzuki 500, followed by Roger Marshall on a Honda 500 and Mark Salle on a second Suzuki. Tom Walkinshaw drove a Jaguar XJS to victory in the Guia Race, with team mate Hans Heyer in second and BMW driver Hans Stuck in third.

1985
After a year off Ron Haslam was back on the Guia circuit - and victorious once more in the Motor Cycle GP. Belgian Grand Prix star Didier de Radigues was second and Eero Hyvarinen, the "Flying Finn" was third. Leg 1 of the Grand Prix was shortened to 12 laps following a first corner incident at Statue (now known as Lisboa) Corner. Mauricio Gugelmin took overall victory with Mike Thackwell in second place and Jan Lammers in third. The Guia Race saw Gianfranco Brancatelli take the win, with Gerhard Berger coming home second and Michael Lieu in third.

1986
Great Britain's Andy Wallace drove to victory in the F3 Grand Prix, with team mate Mauricio Gugelmin in second and Jan Lammers in third. Venezuelan driver Johnny Cecotto's big Volvo 240 T took the chequered flag in the Guia Race, followed by Tom Walkinshaw in second and Thomas Lindstrom in third. Ron Haslam won an unprecedented fifth Motor Cycle Grand Prix, with second going to Didier de Radigues and third to American Randy Renfrow, making it an all-Honda top three.

1987
Typhoon Nina lashed the China coastal area but winds subsided enough to run a 10-lap Motor Cycle Grand Prix which saw Ron Haslam become the Grand Prix's most successful rider with six chequered flags to his credit. The shortened, 20-lap F3 Grand Prix, was won by Martin Donnelly, with Jan Lammers in second and Germany's Bernd Schneider in third. The Guia Race was a resounding success for BMW, with Italy's Roberto Ravaglia first across the line, Dieter Quester in second and Fabien Giroux in third.

1988
American ace Kevin Schwantz wowed the crowds with his high riding antics - including wheelies at 90 mph - on his way to taking victory in the Motor Cycle GP. BMW team mates Altfrid Heger and Markus Oestreich took first and second respectively in the Guia Race with Ford Sierra driver Andy Rouse in third. The first leg of the Grand Prix was once again shortened to 12 laps following a pile up at Lisboa. Enrico Bertaggia, winner of the Monaco F3 Grand Prix, took victory in the event on aggregate - without winning either of the two legs. Briton Damon Hill was second and Otto Rensing, third.

1989
Teddy Yip again pulled out all the stops to stage his "Race of Champions". Competing in identical Mazda MX5 Miatas were racing legends such as Denny Hulme, Roy Salvadori, Al and Bobby Unser, Alan Jones and overall victor, Geoff Lees. The F3 win went to Australia's David Brabham, with Julian Bailey in second and Christophe Bouchut in third. It was Ford Sierras all the way in the Guia Race with Tim Harvey snatching victory from Andy Rouse. Due to bad weather and fading light, the Motor Cycle GP was shortened to eight laps, with Ulsterman Robert Dunlop taking the chequered flag.

1990
Although the Macau Grand Prix had seen many exciting finishes over its history, none was more dramatic than the last lap collision of Leg 1 winner, and race favourite, Mika Hakkinen, with Leg 2 leader, and eventual winner, Michael Schumacher. Steve Hislop stormed to victory over Peter Rubatto in the Motor Cycle Grand Prix and Macau veteran Masahiro Hasemi's Nissan turbo blew away the competition in the Guia Race.

1991
Popular Scotsman David Coulthard won the Grand Prix on aggregate time, despite finishing second to Spaniard Jordi Gene in the second leg of the 30-lap race. Third place went to young Christian Fittipaldi on his Guia circuit debut. World Championship rider Didier de Radigues nicely rounded off a distinguished career by taking the Silver Jubilee of the Motor Cycle Grand Prix, and setting a new lap record of 2:25.91. The Guia Race saw former F1 driver Emanuele Pirro take a close fought victory over Kurt Thiim and three times Le Mans winner Klaus Ludwig.

1992
The 39th Macau Grand Prix saw the lap records of all major races smashed. Sweden's Rickard Rydell won the Formula 3 Grand Prix by just 1.57 over Portuguese driver Pedro Lamy, who set a new lap record of 2:19.26 in his Reynard 923 Spiess Opel. In third place was young Canadian driver Jacques Villeneuve. The Guia Race was a touring car thriller with four factory Mercedes and three BMWs all determined to claim victory. Although Mercedes driver Bernd Schneider set a blistering new lap record of 2:29.74, Emanuele Pirro made it back-to-back victories, with BMW team mates Joachim Winklehock and Roberto Ravaglia in second and third. The Motor Cycle GP saw a classic two-wheeled battle between the 500 cc Yamahas of Carl Fogarty, Jamie Whitham and Japanese ace Toshihiko Honma, with Fogarty taking victory on aggregate, Honma in second and Whitham third. Fogarty also set a new lap record of 2:33.94.

1993
In 1993 the event moved to its new, multi-million dollar headquarters in a purpose built facility opposite the jetfoil terminal. Rickard Rydell returned to defend his title but after setting a new lap record of 2.17:40 he was forced to retire, paving the way for Jorg Mueller's win. Denmark's Tom Kristensen was second, followed by pre-race favourite Kelvin Burt. In the Motor Cycle GP, 1990 winner Steve Hislop took the chequered flag four seconds ahead of 1989 winner, Robert Dunlop, who also set a new lap record of 2.33:18. Hong Kong's Charles Kwan made it into Macau's history books with a staggering trio of wins, the most astounding of which was his victory in the 24-lap Guia race over Emanuelle Pirro, two-time winner of the event, and touring car veteran Jo Winkelhock. With wins in the Supercar Race as well as the Macau Cup Race, Kwan became the first man in the event's history to have won three races in one weekend.

1994
After two previous attempts Germany's Sascha Maassen, took victor's laurels on aggregate time. Kelvin Burt, finished second while Jan Magnussen, who had started the race from 18th on the grid, came home third. The Guia Race saw Jo Winkelhock in his Schnitzer BMW, taking the chequered flag in both heats, with team mate Steve Soper second and Toyota's Tom Kristensen in third. Scotsman Steve Hislop, riding a 500cc Yamaha Grand Prix machine, took his third Motor Cycle GP victory. Just 2.97 seconds behind was Englishman Mike Edwards, with Phillip McCallen in third.

1995
Ralf Schumacher emulated his brother's success at Macau and won the event despite a massive pile up in the second leg. Italian Jarno Trulli came home second and Spaniard Pedro de la Rosa was third. Macau's Andre Couto finished a credible sixth in his first ever F3 race. The Guia Race, which ran over two, 12-lap heats, saw Kelvin Burt take the win followed home by Steve Soper and Julian Bailey. The Motor Cycle Grand Prix saw a grandstand finish between 1994 runner up Mike Edwards and Philip McCallen, with Edwards pipping McCallen to the post by just over a tenth of a second. Consolation for McCallen came in the form of a new lap record of 2:33.259. Third was Swiss ace Andy Hofmann.

1996
Following an amazing finish, when most drivers in the Grand Prix failed to take the chequered flag because of a last-lap incident, victory was awarded to British F3 champion Ralph Firman ahead of Max Angelelli and Jarno Trulli. In the Motor Cycle Grand Prix, Ulsterman Philip McCallen won the 15-lap race on his eighth visit to the Guia circuit after pulling open a near 14 second advantage over Scotsman Roger Bennett, the first lap leader. Michael Rutter was third home, while 1992 winner Mike Edwards set a new lap record of 2:33.07. Audi driver Frank Biela took victory in a drama-packed Guia Race, followed home by Australian champion Brad Jones and Toyota driver Michael Krumm in third.

1997
After an action packed race which saw Frenchman Soheil Ayari's car launched into the air, Ayari drove a brilliant race to win the 44th Macau Grand Prix. Behind Ayari, Patrice Gay and Enrique Bernoldi were locked in a thrilling battle with Gay pipping Bernoldi across the finish by just two and a half seconds while pre-race favourite Tom Coronel had to settle for a new lap record of 2:15.950. Briton Steve Soper fully capitalised on the first leg retirement of BMW team mate Jo Winkelhock to win the Guia Race from Toyota's Michael Krumm, with Charles Kwan in third. Veteran Swiss road racer Andy Hofmann fulfilled his promises to win the Motor Cycle GP. Hofmann, on his 750cc Kawasaki, won the race by almost seven seconds ahead of 1996 winner, Phillip McCallen on a 500cc Yamaha. Shawn Higbee, on a Suzuki 900, took third, making him the first American privateer on podium for almost a decade.

1998
Briton Peter Dumbreck won the closest ever Macau Grand Prix - and the closest motor race in history at that time - when he beat Brazilian Ricardo Mauricio by just 0.003 seconds. Dumbreck, who had finished third in leg one of the race, won the aggregate time-trial battle with Mauricio, and leg one winner Enrique Bernoldi, to claim overall victory. In the Guia Race, German Jo Winkelhock made up for the disappointment of losing victory in 1997 due to a mechanical failure, to take a dominant win. The BMW driver led both heats from start to finish to lead home Italian Max Angelelli and Australian Brad Jones. In the 32nd Motorcycle Grand Prix, Briton Michael Rutter stormed to victory, shattering the existing lap record by over 2.2 seconds, and heading home his Honda Britain team mate Ian Simpson by more than six seconds. John McGuinness cruised home third, with American Mark Miller in fourth place.

1999
Briton Darren Manning dominated both legs of the 46th Macau Grand Prix to claim a convincing victory. He benefited from the first leg being halted following a spectacular multi-car collision, in which nobody was hurt, after he had dropped to third place on the road. At the restart, he got clean away before steadily pulling clear of his rivals, a strategy he reproduced successfully in the second leg. Behind Manning, Briton Jenson Button and Macao's Andre Couto were fighting an epic battle which ended in a collision which removed Couto from the race. Japanese driver Daisuke Itoh became his nation's first Macao F3 podium finisher, as he benefited from the high attrition rate to take third place. In the Guia Race, Germany's Michael Bartels claimed victory despite failing to take a win in both heats of the event. Bartels led from the start in the first race, but was beaten to the chequered flag by Australian Paul Morris in the second. German Oliver Mayer finished third, following Max Angelelli's retirement with a broken driveshaft. In the Motorcycle Grand Prix, England's David Jefferies made it second time lucky, with a win at his second time of trying. Jefferies headed home Swiss rider Andreas Hofmann, when the race was halted two laps early because of Hofmann's machine leaking oil. Third placed man was 1998 winner Michael Rutter.

2000
Macao was the scene of much celebration following the 47th Macau Grand Prix. Andre Couto delivered the perfect result in front of his home crowd, having fought off intense pressure from Italian Paulo Montin to claim a long-awaited victory. In leg two, Couto beat pole position man Pierre Kaffer away from the line to head the field into Lisboa. On lap five, however, Montin managed a daring manoeuvre to take second slot. Japanese driver Ryo Fukuda showed improved pace to snatch third place from Kaffer on lap eight. The Guia Race saw Dutchman Patrick Huisman win both legs, after his predicted toughest challengers failed to make the finish. The incident-filled race eventually saw Hong Kong driver Henry Lee Junior take second place, with Briton Simon Harrison in third. The Motorcycle Grand Prix saw Michael Rutter claim his second victory in three years, but not before an epic battle with fellow countryman David Jefferies. Jefferies finished second, but not before setting a new lap record, breaking that set by Rutter in 1998 by seven tenths of a second. In third was American Mark Miller.
