After the slight drama that Rainey He was demoted to fourth grid position (running out of bound) after winning the pole yesterday, we expected a more interesting fight for CTCC-7 and the race did not disappoint us as the team grabbed the top three positions in the Sunday’s race. As a result of this race, the team becomes the Team Champion two years in a row.

Tengyi Jiang took over the pole position after Rainey’s demotion and made a good start setting the pace of the race immediately. Martin Cao made an exceptional start and sprinted into the sixth position and soon moved into fourth position after only two laps. Tengyi Jiang, KIA driver Lu Jiajun, Andy Yan and Martin Cao maintained a close formation for the next few laps. Andy Yan realized that Martin’s car was approaching fast and decided to allow his teammate to move ahead. On lap 20,Tengyi was having some problems with his fifth gear and Lu took the opportunity to pass him. Tengyi fought back hard and made a very gutsy move with one lap to go. Seeing Lu couldn’t hold his line on corner T10, he took over the inside line to pass. In the process, Lu’s KIA car moved to the dirt area after touching with Tengyi and both Martin and Andy also passed Lu and moved up to second and third. The audience broke into rapturous applause seeing the three Focus cars moved down the grandstand straight together with only one lap to go. And they finished the race the same sequence.

With one race to go, Changan Ford Racing Team already locked up the Team title with a 38-point advantage. Tengyi and Martin also moved themselves to the top of the driver’s points standing and the driver title will be decided in Guangdong International Circuit in December.
