Petron Motorsports takes active role in Philippine racing

Revving up the excitement in the Philippine sports landscape is none other than the roaring world of motorsports. From heart-pounding races to nail-biting competitions of speed and precision, Filipino drivers are leaving their mark on racetracks all over the country.

Leading the charge in fueling this growing momentum is Petron Corporation. According to the oil company, its Petron Motorsports program's unwavering presence and sponsorship of racing venues is making a significant impact in supporting the dynamic Philippine motorsports scene.

But what exactly do drivers face on those challenging tracks? It's nothing short of grueling! The determination to clinch that top spot, the split-second decisions to overtake competitors, and the unyielding grit when things go awry – all of these are put to the ultimate test on those hostile terrains.

But guess what? Petron Motorsports is just as eager as our racers to embrace these thrilling challenges head-on. With its bevy of fuels and lubricants, Petron says it is working tirelessly to ensure that these drivers' performances are as smooth and safe as possible, through every sharp turn and lap.

Petron's motorsports involvement

And let's talk about the events that Petron Motorsports proudly supports. First up, we have the Toyota Vios Cup – a premier one-make race series that levels the playing field with drivers racing using identical Toyota Vios cars. It's all about skill, making victory a coveted prize among Filipino racers.

Then there's the Petron Philippine Motorsport Championship (PHIMOS), a four-wheel extravaganza featuring various race types with different rules and mechanics, all packed into one epic race weekend. Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast or a curious newbie, PHIMOS promises a wide range of thrills for all.

Endurance racing, anyone? The Makabayan Racing Series is the ultimate test of both a driver's stamina and their car's durability. Teams compete to cover the longest distance in a limited time, proving their resilience in the face of challenging conditions.

But that's not all; Petron Motorsports ventures into the wild with the Petron Philippine Overland Expedition. Imagine intrepid adventurers taking their overland vehicles on an epic quest through the Philippines' hinterlands, putting their off-road driving skills to the ultimate test.

And let's not forget the nostalgic Tour de Cebu Historic Sports Car Rally – the only historic car rally in the country that showcases the beauty and endurance of pre-1972 vintage cars as they journey through breathtaking sceneries.

From cars to motorbikes

But it's not just about four wheels; Petron Motorsports is also a strong advocate of two-wheel racing with the Petron National Motorcycle Racing Championships (MORAC). Here, the precision and agility of our best motorcycle racers take center stage in three major classes – Underbone, Scooter, and Superbike.

But wait, there's more! Even the fastest pros had to start somewhere. Petron Motorsports is committed to nurturing the future of Philippine racing by supporting venues that serve as incubators for young racers to grow into professionals. Enter the Petron Motorsports Karting Academy, where kids as young as 7 years old get the chance to become future champions through kart clinics and thrilling competitions like the Petron Blaze 100-ROK Cup Series and the Petron Blaze 100-Rotax Max Challenge Philippines Karting Super Series.

Throughout the year, on and off the racetrack, Petron Motorsports is steadfast in delivering on its brand promise – "Precision. Power. Performance." With top-quality products and unwavering commitment, Petron claims that drivers can focus on honing their skills while their cars and bikes are optimized to be the best they can be with its products.
