The Ironman is one of the toughest racing events in the world and supporting this event will allow us to showcase the power and toughness of our vehicles,” says Rodel Gallega, vice president, Marketing and Sales, Ford Philippines.

“We thank Ford Philippines for their support and collaboration in helping the 2018 Century Tuna Ironman Philippines and Ironman 70.3 Subic Bay become successful triathlon events.

  1. wonder what are the benefits of this to Ford owners? guess a better multiplier is to invest in better after-sales service.

  2. Better fix your faulty parts design first rather than spending millions for this useless marketing partnership.
