Last Saunday the team championship headed to the streets of Macau. The race was going to be a battle between the two main championship contenders Andreas Hultgren and Mikael Hellen.
Mikael grabed the pole ahead of David Cuthill with Andreas 3rd and newcomer Xavier Sampedro in 4th. The drivers held their positions through the first corners but Andreas could soon jump up to 2nd as DC would make a little mistakes giong up the San Fransisco Hill on the opening lap.
The battle was then on for the lead and a few laps later Andreas made a move on Mikael on the outside going into the hard braking zone after the first straights. Mikael defended hard but missed his braking point making him spin out, handing the lead to Andreas.
Mikael then hunted Andreas down, reiling him in second by second but lapping Xavier was going to put an end to his charge as he hit the spinning spaniard, making Mikael lose his splitter. DC who was in the shadows for most of the race finished in 3rd, his second podium of the year. Xavier ended his debut in 4th.
Andreas now leads Mikael by 16 points with 3 races left - 60 points to fight for.
