The FIA GT World Cup on the streets of Macau is one of the most prestigious races in GT3 racing. Since 2008, GT3 cars have raced on the legendary Guia Circuit. Since 2015, the event has held the official title of FIA GT World Cup, with a Corona-related break between 2020 and 2022. 

The event begins with two free practice sessions and a qualifying session to determine the grid positions for the qualifying race. The result of the qualifying race sets the grid for the main race.

Mercedes-AMG Customer Racing is the most successful manufacturer in Macau's 16-year GT3 history. We've taken eight wins in that time, four of them in the FIA GT World Cup era. AMG brand ambassador Maro Engel won the main race in 2015, followed by Edoardo Mortara with the Mercedes-AMG GT3 in 2017 and Raffaele Marciello in 2019 and 2023. All four victories were crowned with the manufacturer title, for which the results of the two best drivers of a manufacturer in the main race are counted. For five editions, since Raffaele Marciello's first victory, we have been unbeaten at the Guia Circuit. 

The FIA GT World Cup is embedded in the Macau Grand Prix, which takes place every year in mid-November.

Raffaele Marciello contested his last race as an official Mercedes-AMG Performance Driver at the FIA GT World Cup in Macau after seven extremely successful years together. He concluded the collaboration with a perfect weekend: Best time in first practice, P2 in second practice, track record in qualifying (2:14.542 minutes) and lights-to-flag victories in the qualifying and the main race. He was the first driver to win the FIA GT World Cup twice – and also the first driver to successfully defend his title in Macau. In the qualifying race, Maro Engel completed a double victory by finishing in second place. Mercedes-AMG Customer Racing also took the Manufacturers' title.

We further won the Greater Bay Area GT Cup, which took place on the weekend before the FIA GT World Cup this year. Hong Kong driver Darryl O'Young took victory in the #55 Mercedes-AMG GT3 from the Craft-Bamboo Racing customer racing team.
