The Yokohama Rubber Co. will supply Advan racing tires to the 62nd Macau Grand Prix, to be held in Macau, China from November 19 to 22. This year marks Yokohama’s 33rd year as the exclusive tire supplier for the Formula 3 race.
The Macau Grand Prix, run on public roads in the city center, is one of the world’s most famous road races. Yokohama began supplying control tires for the race in 1983, when Formula 3 vehicles meeting international regulations were adopted.
The Formula 3 race, the main event of the Macau Grand Prix, is considered to be the decisive race of the F3 season, as it often determines the F3 world champion. Many past winners and other top finishers, including Michael Schumacher and the late Ayrton Senna, have gone on to successful careers in Formula 1 racing. This year’s race will feature 28 of the top F3 drivers from around the world.
