Remarkable and Grateful! Queenie Claveria Cherishes First International Race

After dominating the Philippine Women’s National Championship races in 2023, Queenie Claveria proudly represented the country in the 2024 FIM Asia Women’s Cup of Circuit Racing held from August 31-September 1, 2024 at Thailand Circuit Nakornchaisri. It was held together with the final round of the R2M Thailand SuperBikes 2024. The race weekend was organized by R2M Sport Asia.

The daughter of veteran racer Fritsy Claveria, Queenie has also made her mark in the local racing industry with numerous wins and championship titles in 2022 and 2023. In her first international race, Queenie showed determination and consistency despite the tough race weekend. She considers the experience already a win for her as she was able to compete with other top female riders from different Asian countries.

“First international race was so good! Competing with other top Asian riders is a win. It’s truly one of the books. First day was so hard. My lap time was 1.57 high and had difficulties with the track and bike, but we managed it and placed P6 during qualifying and Race 1 and Race 2. My fastest lap time was 1.47.3 which is a very good result for me. It is really a good experience,” said Queenie in her Faceook post.
