Porsche Carrera Cup Asia 2014 Round 10 Singapore: Preview

0 Comment
 18 Sep 2014   Posted by Cheryl Tay


It’s the seventh Singapore Grand Prix and one thing that has not changed is the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia which has been a support race to the Grand Prix throughout these years.

This year is no exception and the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia will be part of the motorsport party this weekend right here on the streets of our Lion City. Established in 2003, the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia is Asia’s premier international one-make racing series featuring an international field of both professional and gentlemen drivers.

The racing action this week will kick off with Round 10 of the 2014 Porsche Carrera Cup Asia as its 28 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup (Type 991) cars bring the 5.073-kilometre Marina Bay Circuit to life.

With three more rounds to go including Singapore, LKM Racing’s Earl Bamber (#1) is currently topping the overall driver standings with 137 points.

[Watch a recap of Rounds 8 and 9 at Sepang International Circuit here.]

The 24-year-old Porsche Carrera Cup Asia defending champion has an 18-point lead over his closest rival Martin Ragginger (#86) of Team Porsche Holding, but the championship title is still within the reach of five drivers, including Ho-Pin Tung (#58) of Budweiser Team Absolute Racing.

In Class B, Nexus Racing’s Alif Hamdan (#72) of Malaysia is 10 points ahead of Francis Tjia (#21) of OpenRoad Racing, after taking six victories of eight. Just four points behind Tjia is our very own Singaporean racer Yuey Tan (#5) of Dorr Havelock Racing, who will be hungry to win on home ground. Local veteran racer Ringo Chong (#11) is also on the roster.

Tan has been racing in the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia for as long as the Grand Prix has been in Singapore. He took part in his first race in 2008, before completing full seasons of the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia since 2009. The 32-year-old finished second in Class B last season and is gunning for nothing less than the title of course.

Although the Singapore Grand Prix action only begins after the sun sets, motorsports fans and spectators are encouraged to head down to the track in the late afternoon around 4pm to ease into the mood as the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia and other support races get going!

So, if you are headed to the Marina Bay circuit this weekend, come on down earlier! Otherwise, follow @CarreraCupAsia on Twitter as I will be doing ‘live’ updates on the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia as their guest commentator. Here are the timings:

    About last night - belated birthday dinner and dri About last night - belated birthday dinner and drinks for @angelrun.diary, followed by acai bowl for dessert, plus lots of girl talk heehee.

I first knew Wendy when she joined the SCSM Women Squad in 2017, organised by my @ROCKrunnersSG club. She eventually joined ROCKrunners and was a very active member, helping me out in the committee. With her help and the rest of the committee, RR was able to thrive for so many years.

Even though I've ceased RR, I'm really grateful that some friendships have continued, like this one with Wendy... who, with @dadtokeepfit, always generously open their home to us over festive occasions. Between the 2 of them, they have kickass homemade muah chee and fried bee hoon lol.

Here's to a lasting friendship!

    This is the EXACT uniform I wore for 4 years at TK This is the EXACT uniform I wore for 4 years at TKGS. Whipped it out of my cupboard today to film something with @jadeseah who is from the same school! 🤭🤭🤭 Who else still keeps their school uniform? 

Happy I could still fit into it!

And, does the TKGS pinafore still come with a zip by the side? I love it because it accentuates the curves haha. And the belt is sewn on but I ripped it out ssshhhh.

All the memories!

    Who doesn't love Super Ring! So bad yet so good 😅😅😅 I love food and I think I eat too much junk sometimes, but it's all about moderation. I try to clean up the diet where I can, I work out and I remember to take Pruvit pure therapeutic ketones every day too.

The ketones do help me a lot in terms of better energy levels, managing the body composition by reducing body fat and having more mental focus and clarity. So much that ketones can do for you - it's not a quick fix weight loss supplement or meal replacement.

It's a ketone supplement that helps to put your body into ketosis without having to be on a restrictive/strict keto diet so your body will burn fat for energy instead of carbs (glycogen).

Hence, you get the benefits of being in ketosis without having to suffer.

Feel free to DM me if you wanna find out more - I can prep an Experience Pack for you or share more about current promotions!

And if you wanna get Pruvit, do use my referrer link (via my link in bio).

When I arranged this, I knew it was gonna be a blast because these girls are so spontaneous, candid, unpretentious, adventurous and unabashed - as quoted by @rriley.

We kicked off with Mr Don Julio 1942 (whom @clairejedrek brought along and never left him) at 9am with a drinking game by @rriley that got @latimerbarbara buzzing first thing in the morning. Plus more gin that got @victoriacheng a little over. And then everything just went whooooosh from there. Ded from so much laughing, at stupid things like the maxi pad float, capsizing the kayak and being awed by the microwave oven.

Swipe for more nonsense pics LOL.

Give us our own reality show!

    "You have to stop expecting people who don't love "You have to stop expecting people who don't love themselves to love you the way you love them." It's true. I had found love within myself. I knew how to give my full self to someone when I made the commitment. But I have to accept that not everyone understands love as I do. A lot of these guys I thought I'd wanted hadn't found love for themselves yet. How could they possibly be ready for the love I was ready to give?

- This is an excerpt from the book The Modern Break Up and it hit home so hard.

Also wearing this pretty toga piece from @pinksaltswimco - comfy, flattering, great material!

Grateful for this group!
    Valentine's Day dinner with my forever loves! One Valentine's Day dinner with my forever loves!

One of the reasons why I'm motivated to work hard in life is so that I can bring them out and buy them meals and gifts and take them on holiday (when we can). Of course it's not always about the money, it's also about spending quality time with them and I really enjoy their company, quirks and all.

I know they will always have my back no matter what, even when I make mistakes or do things to upset them. This is true love. ❤❤❤

Oh and I promise I have other skirts.

    "Excuse me, I think you're in the wrong outfit." 🤣🤣🤣

I couldn't find my leather skirt, pants or boots, so I just pulled together what I had. And while taking this photo, all I thought about was not getting my legs burnt by the bike hahaha.
