Bianca Bustamante, one of the brightest rising stars in Philippine motorsport, is set to open her 2025 season with a debut in the GB3 Championship at the world-famous Silverstone Grand Prix Circuit on April 26–27.
Now 20, Bustamante embarks on a bold new chapter with Elite Motorsport in what will be her first full campaign in a mixed-gender open-wheel championship since her karting days. Her entry into GB3 marks a pivotal step in her climb up the racing ladder—one that brings her closer to her dream of competing in Formula 3.
This season also debuts the new Tatuus MSV GB3-025 race car, featuring advanced aerodynamics, enhanced downforce, a more powerful engine, DRS functionality, and improved safety. Bustamante has spent months preparing for the demands of this next-level machine.
From high-intensity workouts at the world-class 321 Perform facility in France to test sessions across key European tracks, she has left no detail overlooked. “This is the most important season of my career so far,” she shares. “Moving up from Formula 4 to GB3 is a huge step, but I’ve been working relentlessly with Elite Motorsport and growing my confidence with every lap. I’m so thankful to my team and sponsors for believing in me—it’s all starting at Silverstone.”
The GB3 Championship is the UK’s premier single-seater series and is known for shaping the future stars of motorsport. The opening round will feature three races alongside the British GT Championship.
