Zhuhai Pan Delta Round 2 Race Report
    珠海泛珠三角超级赛车节 – 夏季赛报道

Luck was on the Zhuhai Pan Delta’s side as the almost one month long torrential rain finally cleared up for the 3 day weekend for the 2nd round of the Zhuhai Pan Delta Racing Festival.
    在经历了将近一个月的下雨天之后，上周末的泛珠三角超级赛车夏季赛节 -非常幸运地得以在晴朗的天气下举行。

The Zhuhai Pan Delta race has always been the best promoted event in China’s Motorsport events and as usual, the grandstand of this event was packed to capacity and its estimated that around 20,000 people attended the Festival, giving the event a great atmosphere and a lot of excitement.
    珠海泛珠三角超级赛车节一直以来都是中国赛车活动中推广做得最好的赛事，跟往常一样，主看台被挤得水泄不通，有大概20000人来到现场，为赛车节营造了热烈的气氛，让人兴致勃勃。

The ZIC SBK Championship Series leader FCACA-BG's John Edwards, Paul McConnell, and Jonathan Dickenson from FCACA-BG Shanghai were pitting with FCACA-BG for the 1000cc Open Class 1, and FCACA-BG’s own CSBK team rider Taiwan’s Lin Jiao Hao was racing in Class 2 after winning the previous two races in the first round of the Pan Delta in March earlier this year.
    来自FCACA-BG的约翰 爱德华兹、保罗 麦考奈尔和乔纳森 狄金森驾驶1000cc宾车参加ZIC超级摩托车锦标赛公开一组的比赛，而在公开二组的比赛有FCACA-BG中国超级摩托车锦标赛台湾车手林家豪参加. (他在泛珠春季赛上获得了公开二组两回合的比赛的冠军)

Even after a long lapse in the Championship, John Edwards did a great job to secure pole position for the race. Other Top riders from other teams such as Joao Fernandez from Macau, FCACA-BG’s Lin Jia Hao, Yamaha’s Xiao Jin and He Zi Xian all qualified well for the main event.
    排位赛结束时，约翰 爱德华兹表现出色，获得杆位。来自其它车队的顶尖车手，例如澳门的费南德斯、FCACA-BG的林家豪、雅马哈车队的肖进和何子贤，也获得了不错的排位。

For the first race, Edwards took the lead and looked to be running away from the pack. A few laps later, a group of riders started to close on him including Fernandez, He Zi Xian and Xiao Jin.  Eventually they worked their way past and the race was eventually won by Joao Fernandez, followed by He Zi Xian and Xiao Jin. Edwards crossed the line in fourth, but second in the Class one classifications. Lin Jia Hao crossed the line overall in 6th, but was 2nd in the Class two classifications. Paul McConnell was 6th and Jonathan Dickenson was 7th in the Class one classifications.
    第一回合比赛，爱德华兹第一个冲出发车区，并远远的甩开身后的车手。几圈过后，几位车手，包括费南德斯、何子贤和肖进，逐渐拉近了与他的距离。最终，他们超越了爱德华兹，费南德斯获得第一，接下来是何子贤和肖进，爱德华兹第四个冲线，但亦获得公开一组的第2名。林家豪第6个冲过终点线，获得公开二组的第2名。保罗 麦考奈尔和乔纳森 狄金森分别获得公开一组的第6和第7名。

In the second race, Edwards got another good start but again was fighting with the same riders from race one. The battles were fierce with John passing back and fourth multiple times per lap. In the end, Edwards got the better of He Zi Xian, and took the line in 3rd overall behind Fernandes and Xiao Jin. Paul McConnell and Jonathan Dickenson had a good battle further back in the pack and finished 6th and 8th respectively. Lin Jia Hao finished 2nd in his class for another podium finish.
    第二回合比赛，爱德华兹又有一个很好的发车，竞争对手与上一回合比赛相同。车手之间的竞争非常激烈，比赛结束前，爱德华兹一直处于第四的位置。最终，他是奋力超越了何子贤，在费南德斯、肖进之后，以第三名冲过终点线。保罗 麦考奈尔和乔纳森 狄金森表现不错，分获公开一组的第6和第8名。林家豪获得公开二组的第2名，再次登上领奖台。

Jonathan Dickenson was riding for his first time at the Zhuhai Circuit and improved his lap times each session out, so we hope to see him more often at the Zhuhai races.
乔纳森 狄金森是首次在珠海国际赛车场参加比赛，他的单圈成绩在每一个练习中都有提高，因此我们希望更多地看到他参加珠海的赛事。
