Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) is bringing back its Toyota Vios Cup and GR GT Cup back this July 2021. After a postponement in 2020, the Japanese brand is proud to announce that it will hold its esteemed racing event which will now include the GR GT Cup sim racing event. 

Due to COVID-19 restrictions in 2020, the physical racing event had to be canceled in adherence to social distancing protocols. The event, being the biggest racing festival in the Philippines, usually draws a lot of foot traffic, which made the mass gathering inadvisable.
