If you happen to be at Clark, Pampanga, this weekend and want to watch a race, Toyota Motor Philippines will be holding the second leg of this year's Toyota Gazoo Racing Philippine Cup.

That's right, after putting the race on hold in March, TMP is proud to announce the resumption of its premier racing series, with succeeding races serving as a platform for innovation and responsibility.

Race Weekend 2 will be happening at the Clark International Speedway in Mabalacat, Pampanga. It will be the second of four race weekends planned for the TGR Philippine Cup in 2026. The TGR Philippine Cup has been bringing the thrill and joy of motorsports closer to Filipinos since it was launched in 2014. In March, the racing event attracted more than 6,000 spectators when it brought the action to Riverpark, Cavite, for Race Weekend 1. It was during that weekend that the series debuted the Tamaraw Racing Class, which makes use of the locally made Tamaraw one-make race car.

For Race Weekend 2, the TGR Philippine Cup returns with sustainability at the forefront. As a “rolling laboratory,” the racing event will utilize low-carbon biofuels to run its two one-make race vehicles, the Vios OMR and Tamaraw OMR. Through motorsports, the extreme racing conditions will serve as a test platform for the usage benefits of a 5% coco-biodiesel blend (B5) and a 20% bio-ethanol blend (E20), offering a unique opportunity to push vehicles to their limits.

Demonstrating a strong commitment to fuel flexibility, three-quarters of Toyota and Lexus gas models are already E20 compatible, while all of Toyota's diesel models are B5 compatible.

“Motorsports has always been a testbed for progress, and this season, TGR Philippines will take a step forward by actively exploring alternative fuels in competitive racing conditions. Testing biofuels in motorsports allows us to evaluate performance, efficiency, and reliability in high-demand environments, so this will be a pivotal moment for the wider adoption of low-carbon biofuels in the Philippines,” said TMP first vice president for Vehicle Sales & Operations Elijah Marcial.

Meanwhile, TMP vice president for Government and Industry Affairs Elvin Luciano shared that the use of alternative fuels will help reduce dependency on non-renewable resources.

“As a company committed to reducing carbon emissions, we recognize that every activity must contribute meaningfully to a more sustainable future. Alternative fuels help reduce dependency on non-renewables like petroleum, so using biofuel for our motorsports events aligns with our multi-pathway approach, which includes diversifying our energy sources to contribute to our broader goal of carbon neutrality,” shared Luciano.

As before, admission to the race event will be free.
