British driver Dan Ticktum yesterday won the Suncity Group F3 Macau Grand Prix – FIA F3 World Cup – for the second time in as many years after a dramatic race.
The 19-year-old Motopark driver led every lap during an incident-filled event where there were two Safety Car periods and a lengthy red flag interruption following a freak accident involving German driver Sophia Flörsch.
Flörsch’s car flew over the barrier after being launched over the top of Japanese driver Sho Tsuboi’s car at Lisboa Bend on lap four. Both drivers were transferred to hospital, as well as two photographers and a marshal, but it was later confirmed that none had suffered critical injuries.
