16 Nov 2025 GT World Cup

Mechanical Engineering and Technical Systems Manager Alvin Chak provided comprehensive trackside support to the FiA for the 2025 FIA GT World Cup in Macau.  The race was co-organized by the SRO Motorsports Group and sanctioned by the FiA and was part of the 72nd Macau Grand Prix race weekend.  This was the first time in the FiA GT World Cup series that mandatory torque sensors were introduced as part of real-time powertrain monitoring and Balance of Performance. MagCanica torque sensor systems were used successfully across all 16 GT3 entries from 6 different manufacturers. 

The successful implementation of MagCanica torque sensor systems as part of the real-time BoP process allowed for improved control of BoP values not only in terms of pure power but also top speed, which is a crucial factor on the demanding street circuit of Macau, where high-speed straights contrast with tight and narrow corners. The successful use of MagCanica torquemeters also highlighted the growing trend of torquemeter-based BoP.  By measuring power output at the wheels, rather than estimating inputs and trying to simulate power levels, torquemeter-based BoP helped to more accurately level the playing field of the competitive entries of 16 GT3 cars across 6 different vehicle manufacturers with divergent powertrain configurations. Throughout the event, MagCanica was also able to support the installation and use of the UHA driveshaft torque sensors by various customer race teams, many of whom were utilizing the MagCanica torquemeters for the first time.
