Iñigo Anton has secured the rookie championship in this year’s Formula 4 Southeast Asia series. The 20-year-old, wearing no. 33, raced quickly and consistently all season long, securing top finishes in almost all races. He was put out of action in the final race due to illness, but even with those lost points, Anton remained at the top of the rookie class.
While this was his first F4 tournament, Anton is no stranger to competition. He’s been behind the wheel since he was 10, and broke the Tarlac Circuit Hill lap record when he was 12. Since then, he’s been a fixture at the annual Toyota Gazoo Racing Philippine Cup, driving in the Super Sporting Class.

And what’s next for Iñigo Anton? More international competition, hopefully. He also looks to compete in other racing categories and styles. In a statement made to the Philippine Sports Commission, Anton made sure to take the pride of the Philippines wherever his racing career takes him.
“This victory is not just mine—it’s for every Filipino who dreams big. To raise our flag on the podium and hear our anthem play is a moment I’ll carry forever. I’m proud to represent the Philippines and show the world what we’re capable of,” said Anton.
Most recently, the racer returned to his karting roots and won the Asia Pacific Motorsport Championship Slalom Karting in the senior class. The event took place in Sri Lanka, and had over 200 racers on track. Behind an already storied past, there is still a bright future for the young driver.
