Menu, which found the podium in Korea with Robert Doornbos last year, has committed to running Malaysian driver Fairuz Fauzy, for whom Macau is the nearest thing to a home race. Joining him will be Piquet's number one championship challenger, Adam Carroll. Neither driver has been a regular for the team in 2004, but both have raced for Mike Baker in the past.
Green and ASM head up the Euroseries challenge, and the champion will bring his two extremely fast team-mates with him. Frenchmen Alexandre Premat and Eric Salignon make up a very quick combination, having scored first and second places respectively in August's Zandvoort event, although Salignon will have to prove he is fully recovered from the effects of a car crash that ruled him out of the end-of-season Euro events.
French rivals Signature, which fields Euroseries top ten finisher Giedo van der Garde alongside Loic Duval, joins ASM among the 'overseas' contingent, but also provides an entry for one of the event's wild cards. British series frontrunner James Rossiter, who took third overall on his debut season, joins the squad for Macau as he prepares to compete in Europe next season.
Like Piquet,
Nico Rosberg brings the legacy of a famous father to Macau, and will also compete in a team bearing his own name. The Finn will be looking for nothing less than victory after placing only fourth in a troubled Euroseries campaign.
Daniel la Rosa and
Robert Kubica, who finished seventh in the championship, are the last of the Euroseries regulars, but will run with the only British team to feature in the Euroseries. That, however, is the well-respected Manor Motorsport outfit, who took
Lewis Hamilton to a series of strong results on its first overseas campaign. Hamilton, who created a stir on his international F3 debut with Manor in the Far East last season, misses the event, along with reigning Macau champion Nicolas Lapierre.
