The SEAOIL Radical Challenge Philippines will open its fifth season this August, with the country’s fastest racing series set to stage a four-round championship at Clark International Speedway and Batangas Racing Circuit.
The 2026 season will begin on August 21–23 at Clark International Speedway before moving to Batangas Racing Circuit for the second and third rounds on September 25–27 and October 16–18. The championship will conclude at Clark International Speedway on November 20–21.
Each race weekend will feature Practice and Qualifying sessions, followed by three 30-minute sprint races.
A major addition to the championship this season is FUCHS Lubricants Philippines, which has joined the SEAOIL Radical Challenge Philippines as its Official Lubricant Partner.
All cars competing in the series will use products from FUCHS’ TITAN automotive range, including engine oils, gear oils, and transmission fluids. The range also includes TITAN RACE, a fully synthetic lubricant line developed for competition use.
Founded in Mannheim, Germany, in 1931, FUCHS is the world’s largest independent lubricant manufacturer. The company supplies more than 10,000 specialist lubricant solutions in over 50 countries.
“Partnering with Radical Philippines is a natural fit—two brands built on precision engineering and a relentless push for performance,” said Roland Metelmann, Managing Director of FUCHS Lubricants Philippines. “We’re excited to fuel the next generation of Filipino racing talent with lubricants trusted on tracks worldwide,” he added.
The 2025 season featured closely contested title fights in both the SR3 and SR1 Challenge Cups, with both championships decided in the closing rounds. The defending champions are expected to return in 2026, while established rivals and new drivers prepare to challenge for the titles.
Competition is also expected to intensify following a strong 2025 campaign, during which lap records fell and overall pace improved across both classes. Drivers will once again compete using SEAOIL Extreme-97 fuel as they push the Radical platform to its limits.
“As we open the fifth consecutive season of the SEAOIL Radical Challenge Philippines, we take pride not only in how far the championship has come, but in the community that has grown with it,” said Edward Cruz, Head of Fuels Marketing at SEAOIL Philippines, Inc.
“What began as a vision to elevate Philippine motorsport has become the country’s fastest racing series and a platform where talent, technology, and passion converge,” Cruz added.
He also welcomed returning teams and drivers, as well as newcomers expected to join the grid, while thanking the championship’s sponsors and partners for their continued support.
Mike Consenheim, President of Radical Motorsports Philippines, said the series had developed into the country’s premier one-make racing championship over the past five seasons.
“Together with our title partner, SEAOIL Philippines, we are proud of how far this championship has come,” Consenheim said.
“As we look ahead to 2026, our commitment remains the same—to deliver exciting, competitive, and safe racing while continuing to raise the standard of motorsport in the Philippines and providing a platform for drivers to develop and excel,” he added.
The 2026 SEAOIL Radical Challenge Philippines is supported by SEAOIL Philippines, Inc., FUCHS Lubricants Philippines, Bank of the Philippine Islands, Tieline, and John Barbers.
