    A total of 10 Radical SR1 race cars will comprise this year's grid — all fitted with carbon-steel space frame with lightweight fiberglass body.

    Sending power to the vehicles’ rear wheels is a mid-mounted RPE 1,340 cubic-centimeter engine that can provide as much as 185 horsepower. The aforementioned mill is mated to a six-speed sequential gearbox.

    Aside from being the title partner for the year, Seaoil Philippines also serves as the official fuel supplier with Seaoil Extreme 97 Octane as the approved fuel. In addition, the independent fuel provider in the country struck a three-year deal with Radical Cars Philippines to power the championship all the way to 2025.

    “We are thrilled to return as the title sponsor of Radical Challenge Philippines for 2023. Seaoil’s world class Extreme 97 Octane fuel will once again power the fastest racing series in the country. We will continue providing the same brand of ‘Alagang Seaoil’ on the track, as we have been giving to every Filipino motorist who fills up in our stations. This exciting partnership with Radical exemplifies Seaoil’s commitment in championing Philippine motorsports and fostering a culture of high-performance excellence. We hope to see everyone at the track!” Seaoil Philippines Head of B2C Segment Marketing Edward Cruz said.

    For his part, Radical Cars Philippines Motorsports Director Marlon Stockinger said that the partnership with Seaoil Philippines serves as a huge milestone for the continued push towards the development of motorsports in the country. “Our goal is to be here long term and Seaoil shares that value as we continue to work together for the next three years, solidifying Radical Challenge Philippines as the stepping stone for racing drivers in the Philippines,” he said.

    Each round on the calendar follows a three-day format that consists of free practice on Friday, qualifying and Race 1 on Saturday, and Races 2 and 3 on Sunday. Sprint races are 30 minutes in length from start-to-finish, while the new two-hour Endurance has been added in 2023 that will see multiple driver changes and pit stops.

    The 2023 Seaoil Radical Challenge Philippines is powered by Seaoil Extreme 97 Octane, sponsored by Kumu, Kooler, and Porsche Design Manila.

    Last year, Carmudi Philippines’ sister company Zigwheels Philippines served as the event’s media partner.
