Upholding British honour in the 51st running of the Macau GP was the Menu Motorsports pairing of team stalwart Rob Austin and British F3 runner-up Adam Carroll.
In an incident-filled race Carroll and Austin put in a superb performance to uphold the honour of both British drivers and the British F3 series.
Not only was the Menu Motorsports entry the the only all British team at this year's event, it also finished as the only team with two cars in the top ten and for the second year running, produced the top British finisher in Adam Carroll taking sixth. Last year's top British finisher, Austin went one better than his 2003 eighth, coming in right behind Carroll.
"In Adam and Robert we have two British stars of the future," said team boss Mike Baker. "They work very well together and have a great respect for each other. To finish Macau with two trophies and no damage is a minor miracle.
Baker reckons that Macau is a real "It's almost impossible to describe how difficult it is to drive Macau," he says. "The track has not changed in all its years and has a magical quality."
The challenges of Macau brought out the best in team and drivers, said Baker. "The team were excellent and both Adam and Rob did a super job, there was not a 'fag paper' between them in time or positions and to get two cars to the finish is a great achievement.
"We are learning all the time, but I'm so proud of our engineers, Mick (Kouros) and Chris (Paul) and all the staff. I think you can truly say Menu F3 is one of the top F3 teams in the world."
