Michael Rutter took a stunning eighth race win at 2012 Macau Grand Prix; Rutter riding for Jezac SMT Honda team dominated proceedings over the drama packed week and took the overall win of the ten lap race by five seconds from nearest rival and former team-mate Martin Jessopp.Michael once again made the race his own and was fastest in the majority of practice and qualifying sessions. Gently building up his pace over the week he was third in the opening practice session but was soon up to speed and putting in some good times and topped every session for the rest of the week. The first qualifying session was cut short after only ten minutes due to a serious accident. The remaining sessions were also hindered with wet weather and delays, despite this Michael still continued to dominate the time sheets and qualified on pole for the race.The scheduled first race was postponed due to poor weather conditions and eventually took place this morning UK time at 0815. Michael got off the line well and soon passed Gary Johnson to take the lead by the end of the first lap; he was soon pulling a gap over the rest of the pack. Jessopp was soon putting in fastest race laps and was bridging the gap, as soon as Michael was signalled this information he upped his game and managed to win the race by 4.9 seconds, Michael was 11.2 seconds ahead of eventual third placed man Simon Andrews.Michael - "Firstly I must pass on my thoughts and condolences to the family and friends of Luis Carreira who we sadly lost in the first qualifying session. It marred the rest of the week but as we all know in racing we have to keep strong and carry on. It was a mixed week with accidents and also weather problems that seemed to put delays on everything. It's hard to keep focused and in the zone when session are cancelled or postponed. The week seemed a long one as the other sessions were delayed after darkness fell and then the race delayed due to wet weather.I'm really pleased however, with how everything went on the Jezac SMT Honda, everyone worked really well together and despite not riding a Honda for a few years everything felt good from the off. We took it steady on the first session and just tried to find our feet get a good set up on the bike and ready for the remaining session over the three days.Once everything was working right I got my head down and wanted to put in some good lap times from the start, I was able to be consistent through both qualifying and practice and was able to set pole position. I was once again fastest in warm-up and really looking forward to getting out there and race the Jezac SMT Honda. I got a bit of a bad start and Gary (Johnson) shot out the blocks but I needed to make sure I got past him early on. I got through and got my head down, I noticed Martin (Jessopp) was catching me and I just wanted to remain at the front and focussed on the job in hand, I could see the gap was going back up and just stayed with that pace for the rest of the race.I'm over the moon to have gone into the record books again with win number eight; I really enjoy coming here and hope I can continue for a few more years yet. I'd like to thank all my loyal sponsors for supporting me this year through a tough season and I'm glad I've been able to end the season on a high and repay them for everything they have done for me. Now I'm looking at finalising my plans for 2013 and hope to be able to announce something soon."
