Tse competed in varies series and championhsips such as Lotus Cup, Sirocco Cup, GT Asia, PCCA, Lamborghini Super Trofeo, Audi R8 Cup and Macau Roadsport.

Do you have anything you would like to share about Craft Bamboo Racing’s performance for the last three races?
Kevin Tse: “The car is totally new to the team but we have encountered only a few minor problems throughout the season. For myself the car is not easy to be driven at 100% but as I got more driving time my lap time is getting closer and closer to our pro driver teammate Mathias Beche.”

Do you think Asian Le Mans Series could help promote motorsports in Asia and help Asian drivers to improve?
”Asia is where motorsports is happening now and we are seeing more racing series as well as racing teams setting up bases in Asia. Asian LMS is certainly attracting more and more Asian drivers and audience to get to know endurance racing and a perfect platform for Asia drivers to improve before going into FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC).”

CN prototypes are a new racing class for the 2014 Asian LMS, what new opportunities to CN prototypes offer? How do you see the competition with other teams in CN class?
”CN class is a great category for new drivers who want to experience prototype racing at a much lower cost than LM P2. The CN is by no means slow as we are constantly around 2-3 seconds a lap faster than the GT cars. Personally I’m looking forward to the new LM P3 cars that will be eligible for racing in the Series 2015.”

What is your plan for the rest of 2014 and 2015?
”Definitely my goal is to win the CN class again in Sepang so it will be four victories out of four races in 2014. For 2015 at this point I have no solid plans yet but the LM P3 cars sound very intriguing to me.”

The final round of the 2014 Asian Le Mans Series will take place in Sepang (Malaysia) on Sunday December 7, 2014.
