The Swiss-Italian is the most successful driver in the GT element of the Macau Grand Prix with four victories in the 6.12-kilometre Guia Street circuit to date.
Alexandre Imperatori from Hong Kong, driving a Porsche GT3 R, took third place.
Swiss driver Raffaele Marciello maintained first position for the initial laps of the race but had to withdraw due to mechanical problems with his Mercedes.
