0

The Suzuki-Wheeltek Racing Team’s flagbearer Jacq Buncio capped the season with a historical win with her Suzuki GSX-R1000R taking home the Rookie of the Year title, topping the first-ever Rookie Category of the Philippine Superbikes (PSBK) National Championships with 308.5 points. Running with her Novice, Intermediate, Expert, and Masters’ contenders, she was also able to finish at the top five overall, which underscored her potential as a rider. Jacq also raced at the Pirelli Cup Heavyweight A Category where she emerged as the 1st runner up after having an intense and head on battle with strong competitor Pocholo Panlilio.

It was a powerful return on the racetrack for Suzuki with a winning combination of man and machine—the Suzuki GSX-R1000R, Jacq Buncio, and the team work from Wheeltek. The Suzuki-Wheeltek Racing Team fully supported Jacq in all her races and attended every leg to cheer for her.
