Unbelievable, they really awarded full points for, what, 50 seconds of green flag racing?

I know GB3 is not regulated by FIA and that they awarded full points for Spa F3 sprint race as well. There's a loophole in rules that if the full distance is reached, it doesn't matter if the whole race took place under SC, full points are awarded anyway (even though no one had a chance to improve their positions).
There really should be a rule, that at least 10/20/30 minutes of green race conditions must be met for half/¾/full points, respectively.

they should work it out this kind of stuff, freeze the clock during SC or pull a red if something gets too serious or hard to clear

The main problem is that these races are too short. If there's a slight delay, you'll always run into the time limit. It's especially silly when you consider that this is supposed to be a higher level than F4 but the races are the same length and there are fewer of them in a season.

I take it the coverage won't be on F1TV because it's not FOM event? Well, I'm used to crappy streams since the RealPlayer 7 era.

Their website has had a decent stream for the whole event in the last couple of years.

But it doesn't feel the same without pixelation and choppiness, when you try to screen capture that .asf-stream with Fraps from Windows Media Player and then hurry to upload clips on Jonathan McLeod's server only to realize TBK- has already posted good quality versions recorded straight from satellite feed. ;)

Good to see proper Macau back! It's a very important one for me since I have Eurosport and was able to watch WTCC races back in around 2005 (?). I know that we could see again big crashes and most of the race behind SC, but at least the winner will be more known than some random guy from China (I mean they're also a good racing drivers but it looks weird in the stats next to for example Schumacher)

The entry list for Macau is out and several drivers are coming back to F3 for the event, including Isack Hadjar, Richard Verschoor, Zane Maloney, Roman Stanek, Dan Ticktum and Marcus Armstrong.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Wait, is the race going to overlap F1? Macau GP ought to start 19th November at 3:30pm local time, when Las Vegas F1 race has started 1h 30 minutes earlier?

That's kinda nice idea to be honest. But I will watch instead other show, a lot better imo. I hope that they will stream everything from Macau again
