Paul Jordan🗹 heads to the Macau Grand Prix this week insisting it is more perilous than the Isle of Man TT.

The Jackson Racing Honda team will compete in the famous event in China for the first ✃time.

The Guia course is notoriously♑ challenging. The Macau Grand Prix runs N✅ovember 14-16.

“I really enjoy the track itself and I’m really looking forward to൲ getting back there,” Jordan told the&n♓bsp;.

“I’m especially looking forward to 𒆙going with the Jackson Racing team bec𒅌ause it’s their first time doing the race.

“I remember my first time going to Macau and seeing all the bright lights, and the atmosphere around the event is class, so it almost feels like I’m going fo☂r the first time again because everybody else will have that same excitement, so it will be nice to be a part of that experience with them.

“I’m going thꦡereꦚ with the same mentality I have at every race – I want to be competitive, have fun and I want to improve.

“Macau is unique in its🅷 own way with the black and yellow Armco barriers the whole way around it, and it’s more dangerous than the TT.

“It’s definitely some✱where yo꧒u take very seriously and you have to have your wits about you at all times.

“Results-wise, I’m not thinking too much about it. I want to improve in ever💃ything I have done and if I can improve again, then I’ll be happy.”

Last year in Macau, Jordan finished seventh riding a📖 BMW.

“I surprised myself massivel♏y last year because it was my first time on the bike and with a different team,” he said.

“I just went there to have fun and I don’t want that element to go away, but I’m still༺ seriou🔯s about what I want to do and that’s to keep progressing, but I want to enjoy my racing because if you’re not enjoying it, then there’s no point in doing it.”
