Zhuhai International Circuit - FIA GT Championship

FIA GT Championship

In 1997, ZIC welcomed the new FIA GT Championship. In 1999, the circuit held the FIA GT Championship again, after that the circuit went quiet on the international scene for 5 years.

In November 2004, the circuit was fully renovated and once again the FIA GT Championship was staged. On 14 November 2004, the two Maserati MC12s of AF Corse scored a 1-2 at the track.

The FIA GT Championship was staged from October 21, 2005 to October 23, 2005 and the GPLK Corvette C5-R won the race. The GruppeM Porsches won GT2. The Hong Kong Le Mans Team and the Malaysian Proton R3 Amprex team also took part.

The FIA GT Championship race has been postponed to 25 March 2007 from October 2006, in order to keep clear of the Shanghai F1 Grand Prix in early October and the Macau Grand Prix in the middle of November. The race was won by All-Inkl.com racing's Lamborghini Murciélago R-GT, driven by Christophe Bouchut and Stefan Mucke. GT2 class was won by AF Corse's Ferrari F430 GT2, with Dirk Müller and Toni Vilander at the wheel.
