The 2002 Macau Grand Prix (formally the 49th Macau Grand Prix) was a motor race for Formula Three cars that was held on the streets of Macau on 17 November 2002. Unlike other races, such as the Masters of Formula 3, the 2002 Macau Grand Prix was not a part of any Formula Three championship, but was open to entries from all Formula Three championships. The race was divided into two aggregate legs: the first leg was held in the morning and lasted fifteen laps. The second took place in the afternoon and lasted fifteen laps. The overall winner was the driver who completed all 30 laps in the shortest amount of time. The 2002 event was the forty-ninth running of the Macau Grand Prix and the twentieth for Formula Three cars.
The Grand Prix was won ASM Formula 3 driver Tristan Gommendy, having finished second in the first leg which was taken by Paolo Montin of TOM'S. Montin avoided stalling at the start of the second leg and lost his pole position advantage to Fortec Motorsport's Heikki Kovalainen. He held it until Gommendy caught him due to a horsepower advantage in his engine and passed Kovalainen at Lisboa corner after a restart on lap twelve and maintained the lead to win the Grand Prix. Kovalainen took second position and the outright podium was completed by Takashi Kogure of the Mugen x Dome Project team.
Background and entry list
The 2002 Macau Grand Prix was the forty-ninth running of the event and the twentieth time the race was held to Formula Three regulations. It took place on the 6.2-kilometre (3.9 mi) twenty-two turn Guia Circuit on 17 November 2002 with three preceding days of practice and qualifying.[1][2]
In order to compete in Macau, drivers had to compete in an Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA)-regulated championship meeting during the calendar year, in one of the seven national Formula Three championships that took place during the calendar year, with the highest-placed drivers given priority in receiving an invitation to the race.[3] Within the thirty car grid of the event,[4] four of the five major Formula Three series were represented by their respective champion. Robbie Kerr, the British champion, was joined in Macau by French title winner Tristan Gommendy, Italian series victor Miloš Pavlović and All-Japan Formula Three series winner Takashi Kogure. The only major winner of a Formula Three championship not to compete in the Grand Prix for undisclosed reasons was German champion Gary Paffett.[5] Three competitors who did not take part in any Formula Three championship throughout the year received invitations from race organisers to participate in the Macau Grand Prix. They were local Macanese drivers Jo Merszei, Michael Ho and Kit Meng Lei.[6]
The Macau Grand Prix was started in 1954 by local car enthusiasts Fernando de Macedo Pinto, Carlos da Silva and Paulo Antas as a treasure hunt around the territory's streets.[7][8] Shortly after, it was suggested the hunt's track could host a professional race for local motoring enthusiasts.[9] The race was first entered in the FIA's international motor racing calendar in 1960 and the regulations were amended to allow sports and grand touring cars to compete. The Grand Prix attracted further exposure amongst professional racing teams following Mauro Bianchi's victory in the 1966 edition.[9] Formula Pacific regulations were introduced in 1974. Since the 1983 edition, the event has been a Formula Three race as organiser Barry Bland updated the regulations.[10] This decision has seen the Grand Prix's reputation in the motorsport world increase rapidly; it attracts the best young drivers from around the world,[7] and they considered the event as one where reputations are forged.[11] Macau is also considered a stepping stone to higher class racing categories such as Formula One,[12] and has been termed one of the most "prestigious" motor races by the media.[13][14]
Report
Practice and qualifying
Two practice sessions were held before the race on Sunday. The first session, held on Thursday morning, lasted thirty minutes, while the second identically timed session, took place on Friday morning.[15] The first practice session was held in hot and humid weather conditions but it was delayed for ten minutes due to circuit officials repairing a tyre wall at Lisboa corner after practice for the local ACMC Trophy Race.[16] Paolo Montin of TOM'S paced the field with a lap of two minutes and 17.798 seconds in the closing seconds of the session. Second was Yuji Ide, Gommendy placed third and Narain Karthikeyan was fourth.[17] The rest of the top ten were Bruce Jouanny, Heikki Kovalainen, Robert Doornbos, Kosuke Matsuura, Pavlović and James Courtney.[18] Katsuyuki Hiranaka blocked the track at the Melco hairpin when he got stranded across the turn and marshals got his car facing correctly. Fábio Carbone drove into the corner too fast but braked early to avoid a crash. Kerr hit the barrier alongside the circuit at Fisherman's Bend and inflicted heavy damage to his car's suspension and rear wing. Vitantonio Liuzzi went off the track and removed his vehicle's left-hand corner.[16]

The qualifying period was split into two sessions; the first was held on Thursday afternoon and lasted 45 minutes. The second held on Friday afternoon was similarly timed to the previous day's session.[15] The fastest time set by each driver from either session counted towards his final starting position for the race on Sunday.[3] The first qualifying session had Matsuura come up on top with a time of two minutes and 15.768 seconds set in the closing seconds of the session. Ide waited until his final lap to claim provisional second place and was eight-tenths of a second off his fellow Japanese Matsuura's pace. Courtney pushed hard on his final timed lap and he was the highest-placed rookie in third.[19] Montin had provisional pole position before dropping to fourth and going down the escape road at Lisboa corner. The unwell Kovalainen was as high as second but settled for fifth.[20] Gommendy could not claim provisional pole position when he collided with the barrier leaving Reservoir bend with five minutes to go and bent his left-rear wheel.[19][20] Karthikeyan was seventh, Doornbos eighth, and the French duo of Olivier Pla and Johanny rounded out the top ten.[19] Renaud Derlot was the quickest driver not to enter the top ten and following him were Richard Antinucci, Kogure and Pavlović. Next up was Marcel Costa, Carbone, Hiranaka, Alan van der Merwe, Hiroki Yoshimoto and César Campaniço. The rest of the order was completed by Ho, Lee, Tatsuya Kataoka, Kerr, Liuzzi, Cristiano Citron, Shinya Sato, Lei and Merszei.[18] The only driver not to set a lap time was Ronnie Bremer who crashed at San Francisco Bend turn. Yoshimoto and his fellow Japanese Kataoka glanced the walls lining the track. Yellow and oil flags were needed for Van Der Merwe whose crash into the barrier at Dona Maria Bend corner necessitated their waving and Kit Meng's heavy accident left debris on the track and stopped the session for two minutes.[20]
![](../I/m/2002_Paolo_Montin.jpg)
In the second thirty-minute practice session, Jouanny set an early lap time that was good enough to lead the time sheets until Montin took over the top spot. A short rain shower fell on sections of the circuit and several drivers aquaplaned on the saturated track surface as they returned to the pit lane. The field waited for the track to sufficiently dry up before venturing back on the circuit. Ide was briefly fastest before Karthikeyan and later Montin occupied the position.[21] Ultimately, it was Gommendy who was fastest with a late lap of two minutes and 16.569 seconds despite spinning and lightly damaging his car's left-hand corner at Dona Maria Bend.[18][22] He was followed by Kovalainen, Montin, Pla, Ide, Campaniço, Courtney (competing with a misfiring engine), Karthikeyan, Carbone and Kerr.[22] Late in the session, Pla lost control of his car and made minor contact with the barrier lining the circuit.[21]
The start of the second qualifying session was delayed for thirty-five minutes due to multiple accidents during the third practice session of the Guia Race of Macau that left cement dust, oil and debris to be cleared by marshals. A suggestion in the paddock that second qualifying was reduced to half an hour was dispelled and the full three-quarters of an hour were held.[23] Several drivers immediately began improving their lap times and Montin went to the top of the time sheets with a lap of two minutes and 14.995 seconds after fourteen minutes to displace Matsuura. He held it to claim pole position for the first time on his fifth appearance at the Macau Grand Prix.[24] Gommendy's team adjusted his car and he joined Montin on the front row of the grid in spite of him crashing into the wall in his last try at going quicker and prematurely ending the session with a minute and 50 seconds left.[23] Matsurra was the only driver in the top 26 not to improve his lap time and problems with his car left him third. Kovalainen moved to fourth and Karthikeyan got up to fifth. Pla was the best-starting rookie in sixth.[24] Carbone was as high as fourth before coming seventh and Ide fell six places from his provisional grid slot to start from eighth. Rounding out the top ten were Jouanny and Hiranaka.[23] Behind them the rest of the field consisted of Antinucci, Doornbos, Courtney, Bremer, Kogure, Kerr, Campaniço, Pavlović, Van Der Merwe, Costa, Derlot, Yoshimoto, Kataoka, Liuzzi, Lee, Citron, Ho, Sato, Lei and Merszei.[18] The only other disruption of the season came when Bremer entered the outside of the Reservoir bend and lost control of his car. He crashed sideways into the barriers heavily and inflicting much damage to his vehicle's left-hand corner and suspension.[23][24]
Warm-up
A twenty-minute warm-up session was held on the morning of the race.[15] Montin continued his strong form by posting the fastest lap of the session with a time of two minutes and 14.494 seconds. Karthikeyan was just four-hundredths of a second slower in second place and Carbone was another eight-tenths of a second behind in the third position. Kataoka was fourth-fastest; his fellow Japanese Kogure was fifth and Doornbos sixth. Kerr was seventh-quickest, Costa eighth and the Japanese duo of Ide and Hiranaka completed the top ten ahead of the first leg of the race.[18]
Race
Sunday's race was divided into two aggregate legs. The first leg was held in the morning and lasted fifteen laps. The results of the first leg determined the starting order of the second leg with the winner starting from pole position. Afterwards, a four-hour interval was observed to allow for the intervening support races to occur. The second leg took place late in the afternoon and ran for fifteen laps. The overall winner of the Grand Prix was the driver who completed all 30 laps in the shortest amount of time.[3][15]
Leg 1
The start of the first leg was scheduled for 10:20 Macau Standard Time (UTC+08:00) on 17 November but it was delayed for five minutes due to several incidents during the Macau Asian Formula 2000 Challenge round that made the track dirty.[15][25] When it did start under dry but cloudy weather conditions,[18] Montin made a good start from the grid but Gommendy also made a good getaway and overtook Montin as the field approached Mandarin Oriental Bend for the first time. Gommendy then made an minor driving error and allowed Matsurra into second place.[25] Kovalainen got away slowly and immediately lost fourth to Karthikeyan while Gommendy lost the lead to Montin on the outside line into Lisboa corner.[25][26] At Lisboa turn, Hiranaka appeared to clout the wall lining the track slightly and ricocheted into the path of Pla. As Hiranaka got away after recovering, Pla swerved to avoid him but had no space to negotiate through and crashed. The incident caught out Pavlović, Derlot, Courtney, Van Der Merwe, Merszei and Kataoka. This prompted the deployment of the safety car and marshals worked to clear the wrecked cars that were involved in the incident. Costa made a pit stops during the second lap behind the safety car as the rest of the field until the safety car was withdrawn at the end of the fourth lap.[25]
Montin took advantage of the safety car pulling into the pit lane with a quick getaway to retain the first position over Matssura. Gommendy then came under attack from Karthikeyan. Further down the field, Carbone was under pressure from the faster Doornbos and the latter passed him for eighth. The consequence of the safety car brought all cars in close formation but they were more calmer than before in spite of localised yellow flags at various sections of the track. Gommendy fell behind Matssura and tried to get back past him only for the Japanese to make his response to retain his hold on third position. Gommendy tried for a second time and overtook Matssura for third. At this point in the race, Kovalainen set the fastest lap and he got ahead of Karthikeyan to claim fourth place. Doornbos overtook Jouanny for seventh and Kovalainen got past Matsurra going into Lisboa corner to take over third. However, Mastuura clung onto the slipstream of Kovalainen's car and moved back to third place. Although Kerr got through Carbone for ninth, he made contact with a barrier alongside the circuit and lost positions. Karthikeyan drew closer to Kovalainen as Montin was coming under attack from the closing Gommendy. Montin was being delayed by the slower car of Lei and Gommendy had Matsurra, Kovalainen, Karthikeyan, Ide and Doornbos close by.[25]
Kovalainen struggled to find a way through Matsuura but eventually did so at Lisboa corner and Karthikeyan's subsequent overtaking manoevure was blocked by Matsuura.[25] On lap nine,[18] Bremer drove off the track at Lisboa corner and crashed out of the leg. The following lap, Karthikeyan passed Matsuura and Kogure fell behind Carbone. Montin had now lapped Lei and tried to pull awy from Gommendy with a series of fastest laps. Kovalainen lost control of his car on the uphill part from San Francisco Bend and damaged his car's rear wing after spinning. Kovalainen's steering arm was damaged and he lost fourth to Karthikeyan. Carbone was passed by Campaniço who took over twelfth place while Ide got ahead of Matsuura for fifth position. Doornbos put Matsuura under heavy pressure but he was not successful in getting past.[25] Montin held the lead for the rest of the race to win the first leg and started the second leg from pole position.[25][27] He was joined on the front row of the grid by Gommendy and Karthikeyan finished third. The last of the classified finishers were Kovalainen, Ide, Matsuura, Doornbos, Jouanny, Antinucci, Kerr, Kogure, Campaniço, Carbone, Costa, Yoshimoto, Lee, Hiranaka, Citron, Sato, Ho and Lei.[25]
Leg 2
The second leg of the race started later that day at 15:40 local time under cloudy but dry weather conditions.[15][18] For the second successive leg, the driver who started from pole position did not enter the first corner in the lead as Montin narrowly avoided stalling his car when the race began. This enabled Kovalainen into first position and Ide got ahead of Gommendy for second place.[26] Jouanny hit the armco barrier lining the track at Lisboa turn and ricocheted across the circuit. Kerr could not avoid him despite turning right and ran into his car.[28] Carbone was also collected in the incident and no other driver got caught up in the crash. The accident meant the safety car was deployed to enable the clearing of debris by marshals. When the safety car was withdrawn on lap three, Kovalainen fended off a challenge from Ide on the run to Mandarin Oriental Bend to hold the lead. Kovalainen began to pull clear from the rest of the field. Lei went off the track at Lisboa corner but restarted his car in order for him to continue driving. Doornbos did the same on the next lap and also returned to the track without damaging his car. In the meantime, Montin was attacking Kogure and Ide was coming under pressure from Gommendy who was later challenged by Karthikeyan. Gommendy was overtaken by Karthikeyan but he reclaimed the position soon after.[29]
![](../I/m/2002_Gommendy.jpg)
In reaction to this, Karthikeyan crashed into the wall leaving Maternity Bend corner and retired on the fourth lap.[26] Although Kovalainen was continuing to pull away with a series of fastest laps, Ide later responded to his pace and Kovalainen did the same by increasing his advantage at the front of the field by half a second. Gommendy then was close by Ide and passed him at Mandarin Oriental Bend for second position on lap eight. [26][29] Meanwhile, Campaniço was overtaken on the straight by Costa and he removed his front wing at Lisboa corner because he was surprised by Costa's pass.[30] At the front of the field, Kovalainen was again trying to establish a small lead when Gommendy drew close to him due to the superior amount of horsepower provided by his engine.[29] On lap nine, Ide had third taken from him by fellow Japanese Matsuura and avoided a collision entering Lisboa turn.[26] Ide went in the turn's escape road because he unsuccessfully attempted to block Matsuura and the momentum of the latter's overtaking manoevure.[29] Matsuura continued until he spun at Dona Maria Bend and retired after crashing into the wall. This meant Montin was now third but it prompted the second deployment of the safety car.[26]
At the restart on lap 12, Gommendy took advantage of the safety car's withdrawal to become the new leader by overtaking Kovalainen at Lisboa corner.[26][30] Montin sought a way past Kogure for third but Kogure blocked his attempted overtaking manoeuvre. This caused Montin to spin at Lisboa turn and he was collected by Antinucci and then Ide soon after. All three drivers retired as a result. Kovalainen locked his tyres heavily and Kogure got ahead of him for second. However, Kogure did not keep second for long as Kovalainen retook the position but was now out of contention for the victory. Thus, Gommendy maintained the lead for the rest of the race to win the race overall.[29] Kovalainen finished 2.104 seconds behind in second and Kogure completed the podium in third. Off the podium, Hiranaka took fourth, Yoshimoto came fifth and Doornbos finished sixth. Seventh went to Lee, Citron placed eighth, Ho ninth and Campaniço rounded out the top ten.[27] Sato and Lei were the last of the classified finishers. Overall, 17 out of the 30 entered cars were not classified in the final overall results.[18]
