SEVENTEEN drivers lined up on the grid at the first leg of the 2014 Yokohama Philippine Grand Touring Car Championship that was held on June 1 at the Batangas Racing Circuit, promoter Racewell Marketing said. It added the competitors were divided into four classes based on horsepower, with two cars racing in GT 300, four in GT 200, nine in GT 150, and two in GT 100.

GT 300 driver Dondon Portugal was the early pace-setter when he qualified on pole with his Mitsubishi Evolution. Behind him were a pack of GT 200 cars led by Carlos Anton, Paolo Mantolino and William Tan. Following them were a mix of GT 150 and GT 100 cars, Racewell said.
