True to its commitment to delivering market-leading advanced fuel and lubricants to consumers while supporting the motorsports industry, Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation (PSPC) recently co-presented the MSCC Miata Spec Series inaugural season together with Mazda Philippines and the Manila Sports Car Club (MSCC) at the 4,189-kilometer Clark International Speedway (CIS).
“Together with Mazda Philippines and the Manila Sports Car Club, we seek to empower motorsports enthusiasts through our innovative, top-of-the-line motor oils,” PSPC Vice President and General Manager for Mobility Randy del Valle said during the opening event where 20 brand new Mazda MX-5 units competed in a 10-lap race for the first round of the four-round race series.
Mazda Philippines President and Chief Executive Officer Steven Tan said: “This is a dream come true not just for us at Mazda Philippines, but for the Manila Sports Car Club as well. It was a long time coming, and it’s the result of our blood, sweat, and tears. It’s truly a passion project, and I’m glad that MSCC members were able to celebrate driving with the most-raced car in the world—the MX-5.”
Since 2013, Pilipinas Shell and Mazda Philippines have successfully collaborated as business partners.
Mazda Philippines chose Shell V-Power to energize the Mazda MX-5 units used by the MSCC Miata Spec Series contestants.
Arvin Obmerga, PSPC Head of Mobility Marketing, said before the race proper: “This strong partnership nurtured all these years has made Pilipinas Shell a trusted partner of Mazda Philippines. The partnership comes alive today, as we witness the synergy between Shell’s most advanced fuel, Shell V-Power, and Mazda’s best performance vehicle, the Mazda MX-5.”
Shell V-Power has Dynaflex Technology designed for improved performance and efficiency. It contains powerful cleaning molecules designed to help remove and prevent the build-up of performance-robbing engine deposits.
Pilipinas Shell has been supplying fully synthetic Shell Helix Ultra Professional lubricants for Mazda Philippines’ dealership network for almost a decade now.
Being the number one global lubricant supplier in over 100 countries, Shell brings world-class technological insights to its products and offers the best formulations for vehicles.
Obmerga added: “We give our full support to Mazda Philippines and the Manila Sports Car Club, as they jointly promote the growth of motorsports in the country.”
