It was an extremely hard fought race for me today at the 56th Macau Grand Prix...I attacked hard the entire race but I couldn't find a way past the Lamborghini Gallardo GT3 of Japan's Keita Sawa after he passed me at the start of the race.

I gave it my best shot as the lights went green but I couldn't hold off the high horse powered Lambo into turn 1. The tourque on that car was just too much and his acceleration was strong. Although I had the quicker car today, I wasn't able to get past him in the 10 lap race around the 6.2km Guia Street Circuit.

I gave him maximum pressure the entire race and stayed glued to his rear bumper the whole time. I tried to force him into an error but Sawa drove a strong and consistent race, and although he scraped his left mirror off against the wall, that was as close to a mistake as he would come.

It didn't help me when the yellow flag came out at the Lisboa bend for the last 4 laps, as that is the only real corner to overtake on the circuit and the yellow flag there stopped any hope of getting by the Lamborghini.

Although obviously disappointed to not have won the race today, I am extremely satisfied with my performance on the track as I know I gave it my 100% today and I was really trying to get the win for all the Chinese fans at the race and also watching on television.

Everyone was cheering and I wasj able to even feel it in the race car, so a big thank you to everyone for the constant support! At the end, I had to settle for 2nd place and I'll aim to come back next year to try and grab my Macau GT title back.

Keita Sawa has been a great competitor for many years so its great to see him win at the Grand Prix so a big congratulations to him.

Lastly, Thanks to LKM and Team Jebsen for all the continued support in my racing and at this years Macau Grand Prix.
They have been great sponsors and I wouldn't be here fighting for race wins without them!

I was able to grab pole position today for tmrw's 10 lap race in Macau at the Macau Grand Prix!

It was a tough one for me today, mainly due to the fact that we had a fuel pump problem in the free practice which stopped my car after only 1 lap into the session.

In Macau, there is limited track time and it is a circuit that requires you to drive laps around in order to re-familiarise with and get used to the barriers, so I knew heading into the qualifying session that I would have alot of hard work ahead.

I studied alot of onboard video's from last years race in order to prepare myself for the qualifying because I knew I had to go out there and push hard right from the start.

Because I wasn't able to setup the car in the free practice, my car was oversteering alot during the session so I had to just try my best and drive around the problem. It was scary at times as my car was oversteering even through the corners that reached over 200km/h, but I somehow managed it pull it all together to clock a time of 2:27.35 seconds. That was good enough by 0.2 seconds to grab pole position over Japan's Keita Sawa in a Lamborgini GT3 Gallardo. Danny Watts of Great Britain starts 3rd also in a Porsche.

Tomorrow's race is going to be an exciting one so if you're in Hong Kong, try to catch it live at 10:30am on Now Sports 1 or TVB. Wish me luck and I hope I can take my 4th win and my 3rd consecutive title since 2007!

I've recently been quite busy and I've fallen behind on my blogging! My apologies to those who follow this regularly but I admitidly have been facebooking on my fan page more than keeping my blog updates!!!

Ive arrived in Macau today for the Macau GT race here at the Macau Grand Prix. It is indeed one of my favourite races of the season as the Guia Street Circuit is just the best track anywhere and everywhere...Most drivers that have raced here would tend to agree...

This year, I'll be again driving for LKM Team Jebsen as I have combined my sponsors from the FIA GT Championship and the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia. What's different this year is that instead of driving the standard GT3 Cup Car, I will be behind the wheel of LKM's '09 GT3 Cup S. This car is quite different as the suspension is upgraded quite a bit in comparison to the Cup Car and the front end of the car is much wider which allows the car to be much quicker in an overall lap time. The engine is also a bit stronger with 440hp..

I'm hoping that with the Cup S, I'll be able to surpass my current record lap time of 2:27.11 seconds..It'll be a challenge to reach a 26 second lap but i'm going to push very hard in qualifying to get that time.

On Wednesday, I'm going to have an interview with SCMP Newspaper's online website in which i'll take them for a spin around the circuit in a Porsche. In the afternoon, I'm going to go for a walk around the circuit which usually takes approximately 3 hours, but I find the track walk to be really important and I've been doing it every year here since 2004. For the first 3 years I walked the track, I would do it together with my friend, Charles Kwan and he taught me alot about the circuit. He feels I know the circuit well enough that he doesn't walk it with me anymore.. =)

I'll try to take some pictures and keep you up to date throughout the weekend. Drivers briefing is on Wednesday and my first free practice will be on Friday..

I promise to try and keep more up to date on my blogging!!! =)

There isn't too much to say about this weekend. I'm writing this while a bit frustrated, as it seems I can't get past a weekend without some trouble happening with my car.

It is the 3rd weekend in a row I've lost a podium position due to some technical failure so its disappointing this weekend...

I started off the race well and was able to hold on to 6th position after the first 20 min, and most importantly , stay with the pack.

My stint was pretty good, but my tires dropped off alot and I struggled a bit with the car, however, my pace still managed to be good and I came in for the first pit stop.

My team mate Holzer drove a strong stint and was able to overtake a few cars.. Because cars were all running different strategies and some cars pit early, we were in P1 for about 20 minutes but we were realisticly fighting for P2.

It became clear as the stint went on that we had P2 in our grasp but it came down to the final mandatory pitstop where Marco came out of the car and I would go back in. The driver change went perfect and I was ready to go in about 10 seconds. I push the start button to get the car started and leave the pit, but the car wouldn't start...

We lost 1 lap which we later found out was caused by an alternator problem which destroyed our battery... We finished the race in P11. Another podium finish lost....

Next race is Zolder in Belgium..

It has been a good weekend so far here at the Paul Ricard Circuit located in Le Castellet, France. I have continued to push myself hard to continue improvement in my speed in my Porsche GT3 RSR.

Driving the GT3 RSR is very different than the GT3 Cup Car which I compete with in Asia. The styles vary alot due to the design of the car and more importantly, the aerodynamic benefits of the RSR.

In order to maximise the RSR, you must be able to carry alot of mid corner speed, even in the lower speed corners, which is something I continue to improve in.

Last time I qualified the car, i placed the car in 9th position, but I have been able to improve since Hungary and find more of the limit of the car. Although I made a few minor mistakes today in the qualifying session, I put the car in 6th position, which was 0.5 seconds behind the fastest Porsche.

Our team has spent alot of effort to focus on a car that will be good over a 1 hour stint, so we feel this is the strength of our car, which we hope will benefit us in tomorrows race.

I will start the race tomorrow and push hard to gain as many positions as possible before handing the car over to my team mate, Marco Holzer of Germany.

Together, we should be able to put in a strong performance. I will focus on having a clean start in the race and most importantly, stay with the lead pack of the GT2 class before the first rounds of pit stops.

2 weeks ago in Portugal, we were leading the race before an engine failure ended our run. We will try to repeat a good race and have quick pit stops in order to climb up the leader board.

The race is this Sunday and the race will be streamed live on www.fiagt.com. Follow the race on the website, or watch the re-run of the races on ESPN/Star Sports during the weekdays this following week.
