Eurointernational made Formula BMW their playground

Eurosport drivers swept the podium in Macau – the final Formula BMW race

Carlos Sainz Jr., Red Bull Junior Team, conquered the notorious 6.2 km Macau Gaia Circuit, with a light-to-flag victory in the final Formula BMW race in support of the 5th Macau Grand Prix.

Eurointernational swept the podium as Tomoki Nojiri (JPN) and Tom Blomqvist (GBR) finished second and third, respectively, while Dustin Sofyan (INA) completed the triumph for Eurointernational finishing fourth and winning the Formula BMW Pacific race as first non-guest driver of the event.

For the third time in the 2010 season EUROINTERNATIONAL sweep the podium, but for the first time ever took the top 4 positions with the 4 cars entered.

Eurointernational's domination was underscored with the pole the day before by Carlos Sainz Jr., the 100th pole in the team history, and the fastest race lap of Tom Blomqvist. Blomqvist also recorded the fastest ever top speed of 234.7 kph in Formula BMW history at the speed trap before the Lisboa Bend.

This incredible result was the best ending possible for the EUROINTERNATIONAL Team in Formula BMW which ran it's last event ever at the Macau Grand Prix.
