The 2026 Macau Grand Prix (formally the 73rd Macau Grand Prix – FIA FR World Cup) is a scheduled motor race for Formula Regional cars to be held on the streets of Macau on 22 November 2026.[1] The race itself will be made up of two races: a qualifying race that will decide the starting grid for the fifteen-lap main event. The 2026 race will be the 73rd running of the Macau Grand Prix, the third for Formula Regional cars and the third FIA FR World Cup.
Background and entry list
The Macau Grand Prix is a race considered by drivers as a stepping stone to higher motor racing categories such as Formula One, and is Macau's most prestigious international sporting event.[2][3] Held as a Formula Three race ever since 1983 - apart from three editions disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic between 2020 and 2022, where the Grand Prix was held as a domestic Formula 4 event - the event switched to Formula Regional machinery from 2024 onwards.[4]
The organizing bodies called this change a "natural consequence of the evolution of the junior single-seater landscape over the last couple of years", with Formula Regional now effectively embodying the multi-region multi-spec nature that F3 had previously been synonymous with.[5]
The 2024 and 2025 editions saw all competitors use identical Tatuus T-318 chassis with a 1.742 L (106 cu in) turbocharged inline-4 engine developed by Autotecnica and Alfa Romeo. The introduction of the Formula Regional Gen2 ruleset in 2026 meant that the Macau Grand Prix will also employ these regulations in 2026, with drivers competing in Tatuus T-326 cars.[6]
Entry list
All competitors will use an identical Tatuus T-326 chassis. The 13 participating teams were announced on 14 July.[7]
