1990 Macaun f3
The 1990 edition was the most dramatic series in recent memory. Finland's Mika Hakkinen, the reigning British F-3 champion, arrived in Macau as the clear favorite. He won the first leg comfortably and only needed to finish second in the 2nd leg to clinch the overall title. Only one man stood in his way. He was a relatively unknown German driver by the name of Michael Schumacher. Yes, that Michael Schumacher.
At the start of the second leg of the 1990 Macau Grand Prix, Michael Schumacher charged into the lead and was followed by Mika Hakkinen in the second place. Throughout the race, Schumacher could not shake off Hakkinen, who only needed to finish second. Hakkinen looked as if he would become the new Macau champion.
However, on the last corner of the last lap, Schumacher deliberately exposed an opening for Hakkinen to pass. But when Hakkinen drove through it to take the lead, Schumacher slammed his car into the Flying Finn and knocked him out of the race. Hakkinen was forced to retire right in front of the finish line. Meanwhile, Schumacher stormed past the checkered flag and became the overall winner of the 1990 Macau Grand Prix. As Michael Schumacher sprayed champagne on the podium, Hakkinen buried his head in great disappointment.
The rivalry between the two drivers would resume many years later in Formula One. Both would become world champions. In recent years, Mika Hakkinen has said publicly that he has forgotten about the incident in Macau, but friends close to him said otherwise. As for Schumacher, the deliberate maneuver on the last corner of the 1990 Macau Grand Prix would became a trademark in his career. It would repeat again and again in Schumacher's career. Just ask Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve about it. But we saw it first in Macau.

Muistaakseni Häkkinen sanoi Schumacherin painaneen jarrua keskellä suoraa. Eli en voisi enään vähempää arvostaa miehen tai ennemminkin kakaran suorituksia.
