I never understood why people like to race there... watching carnage, is guaranteed.
I heard as well that a bike rider lost his life this week there on the same track....
edit- confirmed.

Same reason as Monaco.. Lots of sponsor agreements and history. Having been to Macau and walked some of the track its insane how narrow some bits are as a normal road them add in armcos and barriers.
Cool venue though! I guess they could maybe move the race to the newer section of the city in Taipa

Speaking of Forza, I wanted to DL Forza 7 for PC yesterday, purchase it legit but Microscrap make it so fucking difficult to just log onto their shitty website that by the time I managed to get in I had changed my mind and only downloaded the demo.
Y a des mort a chaque année presque a Macau et Isle of Mans!
les coureurs y vont/retourne pour le prestige de la course!

That corner is wide & open. He slide & regained grip in such a bad way that it would have been fatal regardless the corner.

I have raced superbikes- I know the danger. Isle of man is another dangerous place for sure.
The point was more about the Macau circuit leaving little or no chance for survival- car crashes = pile up and race delay- if we are lucky in this case- no injuries. The bike accident was reinforcing the statement of not understanding the desire to race here.
Greg- I do understand the politics involved- but still.... so many other venues.

Not pro racing, more amateur
But Check this out at the PCA 2015 race at road america.
I was there when it happened, was waiting for my race to start. The crashes were brutal for us amateur.
To give you an idea of the speed we get at kink corner
My lowest speed is usually 185 kmh and when i have it perfectly, lowest speed is 195 kmh.
19:50 on video to give you an idea
