The Guia Circuit plays host to the legendary Macau GP. A location that some say is much more daunting than the already very intimidating Monaco street circuit. It's tight corners, steel barriers and no run off areas whatsoever provide for some great racing and one that separates the legends from the men and the men from the boys. It is also the only street race event that features both cars and bike races.

Many legends alive and gone raced here. Senna, Schumacher, Hakkinen, Patrese, and even Takuma Sato won here. If it's a hard race for cars, it's even worse for bikers. The video above gives you an idea of just difficult it is and why the Macau GP has positioned itself as one of the toughest races ever and why it has managed to stay on the calendar since the 50s. It provides for some exciting race moments.
