JRM’s Li Chao and Chris van der Drift cruised to victory in the GT3 championship fight. Martin Rump of Kings overtook FAW T2M’s Martin Ragginger/Bao Jinlong in the closing moments of the race to take second together with teammate Wang Liang. D2’s Huang Hsi Chan’s turned his maiden drive at the Shanghai International Circuit into a win for GTC class, further extending his championship lead against Xtreme Motorsports’’ Xu Wei and Ling Kang, who came in P2. TSRT Tianshi Racing’s Liang Kaifeng and Pu Shu claimed third and their first podium at China GT. The Winning Team’s Roelof Bruins and Dong Liang bounced back strongly to claim their fifth win of 2017 season after a slightly off-form Zhuhai weekend. China GT rookies He Xiaole and Zhou Yong of ChinaEquity AMR took P2 while Xtreme Motorsports’ Naomi Schiff and Shi Liang completed the podium.




GT4



GT4 race started on a cloudy Saturday morning. The #570 McLaren fielded by The Winning Team’s Roelof Bruins quickly came ahead of the pack after starting P4, while title challenger Chen Yinian’s KTM X-Bow suffered an early spin and drifted to the back of the field. ZIA FEA’s new recruit Rodolfo Avila’s amazing first stint saw him passing one car after another before finally taking the lead against front-runner Bruins on lap 5.


Shortly before the pit window opened it started to drizzle. Dong Liang took over from Bruins and took the fight to the #721 of Yang Zhiyi, who swapped out Avila, and started to pull away. He Xiaole in the #77 Aston Martin was fairly anonymous throughout his stint but his co-driver Zhou Yong put the car back into contention after taking over, passing teammate Ross Gunn and ZIA FEA to take P2. China GT’s second female driver Belgian-born Naomi Schiff snatched P3 from Gunn towards the closing laps of the race.


Finishing on points from fourth to eighth: Ross Gunn and Yang Mengqiao of ChinaEquity AMR, Robert Webb and Bill O’Brien of Team Lotus, Rodolfo Avila and Yang Zhiyi of ZIA FEA Racing, Sam Lok and Sky Chen of Team Lotus, and Zhang Dongqi and Yin Jinge of ZIA FEA Racing.

GT3


Single-event entries Franky Cheng and Anthony Liu of BBT and Max Wiser and Jiang Xin of Spirit of the Race started in the front row and have engaged in a race-long battle. Things got intense just after the driver change as Cheng and Wiser came out wheel to wheel and made contact out of Turn 1 into Turn 2. Wiser came out ahead and maintained the lead towards the end. Alexandre Imperatori in the #9 Bentley Continental GT3 more than made up for a disappointing qualifying, recovering 24 positions after starting at the very back in P26.  


Chris van der Drift came out of the pit stop just ahead of PCCA rival Martin Ragginger, who had the longest stoppage time in the category due to driver ratings. Van der Drift then went on to lap the slower cars on the grid but did not quite have the pace to attack the leaders Wiser and Cheng. Ragginger had a solid stint but was unlucky in the end. He was passed by a charging Martin Rump in the #8 Audi of Kings towards the closing moment of the race, who was battling back lost positions from P8.


In the end, BBT’s Franky Cheng and Anthony Liu and Spirit of the Race’s Max Wiser and Jiang Xin took P1 and P2 in the overall GT3/GTC classification. JRM’s van der Drift and Li were the first to take the chequered flag for GT3 Class. Kings’ Rump and Wang and FAW T2M’s Bao and Ragginger completed the podium for GT3.

GTC


Huang Hsi Chan further extended his championship lead after Round 7. Despite being a rookie at the Shanghai International Circuit, Huang quickly found his pace on this winding track.
