Grand Prix disburses around MOP1.5 million in prize money

The Macau Grand Prix will disburse around MOP1.528 million (US$191,450) in prize moneys during the racing weekend, which is an increase from around MOP861,000 in the previous edition. The newly created FIA GT World Cup will be the kindest to its participants, handing out some MOP626,000 to be paid in US dollars.
The largest prize of the competition – awarded to the winning manufacturer of the GT race – amounts to around MOP240,000. The driver picking up the international trophy will pocket MOP96,000.
Right after the FIA GT World Cup, the FIA Formula 3 International Cup race is the one disbursing the largest amount of money. All in all, the competition for the drivers chasing a future in Formula One will be handed MOP550,820.
For Formula 3 drivers, the most important part of winning the Macau Grand Prix is the visibility obtained. It is common for racers to see the Guia race as an opportunity to save an otherwise failed season. And by winning the main race they can take home MOP96,000.
Motorcycle winner takes MOP33,000
While the winners of the international races receive their rewards in US dollars, the competitors of the other races are paid in Hong Kong dollars. With respect to the remaining categories, the Motorcycle Grand Prix awards the largest prizes in the amount of MOP230,000.
The first rider to complete the main race, which will take place on Saturday, will take home around MOP33,000. At the same time, the winning team, which is decided based upon the results of its two best placed riders, is awarded MOP22,700.
For the TCR International Series, Touring Car Cup and Road Sport Challenge, each competition disburses some MOP34,000, with financial prizes for the first three drivers. The winners are awarded around MOP16,500..
The Celebrity Race and Chinese Racing Cup do not award any prize money, only the trophy at the podium ceremony.
