Three Ateneo de Manila Grade School (AGS) students went full throttle and delivered podium finishes at the SEC Motosupply Cup held on 15 November 2025 at the Carmona Race Track in Cavite, one of the country’s premier circuits for grassroots motorsport.
Zion Tandoc (K-Garing) stormed to P1 in the Bambino Novice category (ages 4–7), delivering a confident performance against fellow young drivers to capture the championship and earn the top spot on the podium.
In the Bambino Expert category, Enzo Bautista (2-Kamagong) finished as 1st runner-up, demonstrating steady pace and focus throughout the race. His podium result reflects his growing experience in the sport.
Completing the medal haul was Miguel Bautista (4-Diego Silang), who placed 2nd runner-up in the Cadet category.
The SEC Motosupply Cup is officially recognized by the Automobile Association Philippines (AAP), the country’s leading authority and sole governing body for four-wheeled motorsports. With AAP recognition, the competition upheld regulated standards in safety, race operations, and driver development—giving young racers the experience of competing in a professionally sanctioned environment.
From explosive grid starts to calculated corner exits, the young Ateneans proved they possess both speed and discipline on the circuit. Their podium finishes in Carmona highlight not only raw pace but also focus, precision, and the mindset of true racers built for the fast lane.
