Local Qualifying Race
This year’s finalists showcase the region's top e-racing talent, with competitors from Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand. Among them are defending top three racer Andika Rama from Indonesia, who has maintained his position over the past two years, and crowd favorites Taj Aiman from Malaysia and Thanaphat Pungphat from Thailand.
Representing the Philippines are Luis Moreno, who won second place at the Asia Finals last year, Russel Reyes, and newcomer Enzo Ison. The three came out on top after besting 40 of the best sim racers in the country at the National Finals held at the SM Mall of Asia in August.
The top three racers from each country, having qualified through local races, will now compete in the GR GT Cup Asia Finals in Malaysia. These 15 e-Motorsports racers will go head-to-head in three thrilling races on iconic circuits at the Regional Finals.
Final Race
The finals will be held across three racetracks, each bringing a unique mix of speed, strategy, and skill. Through a point system, the overall champion will be determined by the total points scored. Racetracks will include iconic circuits such as Sardegna Windmills, Nürburgring GP, and Fuji Speedway, offering familiar challenges and unpredictable elements.
The finalists will battle for two spots at the Global Finals to be held later this year, alongside a prize pool of over USD 61,000.
