A month after their dominant weekend at Clark International Speedway (CIS), Access Plus Racing heads into Round 3 of the 2026 Philippine Superbike Championship (PSBK) with a fresh look, unveiling a new race livery for its 7th-generation Ducati Panigale V4 alongside custom race suits for riders Timothy Joseph “TJ” Alberto and Troy Alberto.
The Alberto brothers have enjoyed a perfect start to the season, with TJ leading the PSBK Pro Class championship on 125 points after winning all four races so far. Troy sits 2nd overall on 100 points.
The updated livery marks the latest evolution of Access Plus Racing’s championship-winning Ducati Panigale V4 as the team continues its title defense with the support of its long-standing partners.
Matching the revised bike livery are the riders’ new custom-made Macna race suits, supplied by Motoworld Philippines, the exclusive distributor of the Dutch riding gear brand in the country. Individually tailored for TJ and Troy, the suits are constructed from lightweight kangaroo leather, offering exceptional abrasion resistance, flexibility, and comfort under the demanding conditions of superbike racing.
TJ has worn Macna race suits since 2018, with Motoworld Philippines continuing to support both riders throughout the years. Beyond the custom race suits, the company also supplies Shoei helmets for TJ, LS2 helmets for Troy, and Forma racing boots worn by both riders throughout the season.
The team also continues its successful technical partnership with Shell Advance, which has powered Access Plus Racing since 2023. Trusted and recommended by Ducati, Shell Advance’s fully synthetic motorcycle oils are engineered to deliver maximum performance and protection under extreme demands. Together, the partnership has helped deliver multiple race victories and PSBK championships over the past three seasons.
Joining the team this year is Safety Jogger. Best known for its professional safety equipment, the company now supplies the team with safety shoes, protective eyewear, and gloves used by the riders and crew throughout each race weekend.
Despite the new look, the objective remains unchanged.
TJ will be aiming to extend his championship advantage in the PSBK Pro Class, while Troy looks to continue his strong start to the season and further close the gap at the top of the standings. With both riders also sharing the lead in the SS600 championship, Access Plus Racing enters Round 3 in contention for multiple titles.
Qualifying gets underway on Saturday, August 1, before Race 1 and Race 2 take place on Sunday at Clark International Speedway (CIS). Mixed weather conditions are once again forecast for the weekend, promising another challenging round for riders and teams alike.
Toti Alberto (Team Principal): We’re heading into the halfway point of the 2026 PSBK season in the best position possible, and we’re incredibly grateful to all of our team partners who have supported us through every victory along the way. With the new Panigale V4 now firmly part of our championship campaign, we felt it was the perfect opportunity to unveil a fresh new look that reflects the next chapter for Access Plus Racing. More importantly, we’re looking forward to rewarding the trust of our partners with another strong performance on track.”
