Another win from pole for the Macau master in qualification race, despite briefly dropping behind fellow BMW driver Dries Vanthoor at the start
Raffaele Marciello has continued his remarkable record in Macau by triumphing in the FIA GT World Cup qualification race, leading all of the contest bar one corner. Marciello has won both races at the last two editions of this event with Mercedes and again triumphed from pole upon his first outing around the Guia circuit for BMW. However, it was not straightforward at the start as his MCG-run BMW M4 was passed by Dries Vanthoor's WRT example out of Reservoir Bend.
Further back, in seventh and eighth, came the Porches of Alessio Picariello and Laurens Vanthoor, the latter sending Christopher Haase's Audi brushing into the wall as they began the race. Haase continued to finish ninth, one place ahead of Edoardo Mortara - the Swiss having switched to Lamborghini for this year as the manufacturer makes its first GT World Cup appearance since 2017.
