    The winners of the GR Vios Challenge Season 6 Round 2 Race 2 are - Putera Adam (Super Sporting Class), Bradley Benedict Anthony (Sporting Class), Elson Lew (Rookie Class), and Zizan Razak (Promotional Class).
  • The intensely-contested racing was tuned by a total of 3.7 million viewers online across TGR Malaysia's social media platforms, where the amazing racers behind the wheel chased for the following overall titles -

    • Rookie Class (young drivers)
    • Promotional Class (celebrities)

    In Race 1 (June 3), the drivers in all classes remained cautious to accumulate as many points as they could to secure their position for the overall championship title. However, Race 2 (June 4) demonstrated intense competition as all the top contenders throughout the four classes of racing fiercely fought to secure the win.

    “The fact that you can never single out a favourite driver to dominate with the door-to-door competition – right up to the last corner of the last lap - in the GR Vios Challenge is what keeps spectators and online viewers at the edge of their seats,” said UMW Toyota Motor President, Datuk Ravindran K. 

    “I want to take this opportunity to thank all our online viewers and race fans for their utmost support. It is the fans who have made the GR Vios Challenge what it is today. Of course, not forgetting all our racers, race team, dealers, and sponsors,” he added. 

    The key highlights of Race 2 are -

    • In the Sporting Class, Kenneth Koh overtook Sharique Zulqarnain to take the lead, while Bradley Benedict Anthony made a successful move to secure the victory
    • In the Super Sporting category, Hayden Haikal initially led the race until the game was halted by a red flag. However, after the restart, Putera Adam claimed the lead and successfully secured the win
    • In the Rookie Class, Elson Lew bounced back from a poor start in Race 1 and won the overall title
    • In the Promotional Class, the race was halted for some time due to an accident involving Shukry Yahaya and Hefny Sahad. Zizan Razak managed to stay in the lead despite facing constant pressure from Ezzrin Loy and finally won the race
