Greg Murphy Leads Asian F3 Promotions Championship after races in China

Greg is now leading the Asian Formula Three Promotions Championship after the third and fourth round races which took place at the Zhuhai circuit in China this weekend.

As we posted yesterday, Greg won the third round of the series on Saturday and he finished in second place in the fourth round on Sunday morning Irish time. He now leads the championship by seven points from Indonesia’s Moreno Soeprapto.

The next round of the Asian F3 Championship takes place on June 18th 2005 back in China.

Greg gets back in Dublin tomorrow. Speaking from a bar in Hong Kong watching the Spanish Grand Prix, Greg said he was delighted with how the weekend went:

“It’s fantastic to be leading the championship at this point. I was really thrilled to register my first Formula Three win on Saturday but it was just as important to follow that up with a strong performance on Sunday. The second race was difficult with a major incident at the start so to get second place was a great result. It's nice to be leading the championship but it's still the early stages of the season so there's a lot of points to be won and lost yet."

We'll be posting photos of the action from China on this site in the coming days.
