The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said in documents that it opened the probe on Thursday after the company reported four crashes when Teslas encountered sun glare, fog and airborne dust.
But while Ratliffe is excited about the storied rivalry game, coach Chito Victolero is looking at Magnolia’s next game with a more intense outlook.
“We are in a do-or-die situation. We put on our playoff mindsets early,” said Victolero.
“I think we’re nearing the exit so we need to have that sense of urgency to play better,” added the top tactician.
