On November 22, it was staged in the streets of the city as a non-championship race as part of the GT Asia Series in GT3-spec cars.
The Automobile General Association Macau-China appointed the Stéphane Ratel Organisation (SRO) to assist in establishing a grid.
René Rast finished second in his Audi R8 LMS, while Stefan Mücke completed the podium in his Craft-Bamboo Racing entered Aston Martin Vantage V12.
[4] On 11 September 2015, Audi, Aston Martin, Mercedes-Benz, McLaren and Porsche were announced as the five manufacturers accepted to enter the event that was open to any car model meeting GT3 rules.
[9] The motorsport promoter Stéphane Ratel Organisation (SRO) elected not to renew its contract with the FIA two years before the 2015 FIA GT World Cup, and in early 2013, the SRO's founder, Stéphane Ratel, proposed creating a race for the finest teams and drivers.
[13] The Automobile General Association Macao-China, the race's promoter, asked the SRO to assist in forming a grid.
Positions six through ten were filled by Stefan Mücke, André Couto, Keita Sawa, Rast, and Richard Lyons.
Positions six through ten were filled by O'Young, Mortara, Álvaro Parente, his teammate Kévin Estre, and Rast.
[16] Friday afternoon's half-hour qualifying session determined the starting order for the qualification race through each driver's fastest lap times.
[4][14] Before he hit an inside kerbstone at Mandarin Corner and lost control of his car, which then drifted into a barrier (the first of three stoppages), Engel was the early leader in qualifying.
[23] Despite matching his pace earlier in the race, Engel was unable to challenge Mücke because the leader controlled his speed; both men pulled away from the trailing Mortara and Van Der Zande.
Fong lost control of his Bentley Continental GT and crashed heavily at the Solitude Esses on the third lap.
[21][22] At the lap eight restart, Mücke got away cleanly to lead the race back up to speed, with Engel and Mortara close behind.
[24] The leaders were unable to execute any further manoeuvres, and the margins at the front grew progressively until the qualification race ended.
[22] Mortara made a quick getaway after the race's rolling start and stopped Engel's initial pass to take the lead before the Mandarin Oriental corner.
[27] At the end of the first lap, Engel led teammate Van der Zande, followed by, Mortara, Mücke, Parente, O'Young, Sawa, Marchy Lee and Lathouras.
I had to make a really good start and I knew I had to hold the inside line and stay in front or try to get ahead in the Mandarin corner, otherwise it would be difficult.
At the midway, Derdaele's car had a punctured tyre and retired at Lisboa curve, while Parente lost sixth place to O'Young by having a better exit out of a turn.
[27] Van Der Zande was slowed by traffic, allowing Mücke to challenge him for second place heading into Lisboa bend.
[29] When the safety car was deployed to close the field down following an accident on lap 14, Engel's eight-second lead over Mortara was reduced to nothing.
