On 18 November 2019, Lei Kit Meng, driving a Nissan GTR-34 in the Macau Touring Car Cup, hit the barrier at Mandarin bend. Lei did not stop on the first possible opportunity to make it easy for the race to restart. Instead, he drove along the circuit for over one lap until the race direction showed him the black flag to disqualify him and order his immediate return to the pits. The incident caused over 15 minutes of stoppage, since Lei’s car spilled oil and other fluids on the track surface that had to be cleaned by the track staff. In the end, the race was ended only after seven laps, of which five were completed behind the safety car.[3]
