What Happened
Polaris Off Road and the RZR Factory Racing team delivered a dominant performance at the San Felipe 250 in Mexico. Brock Heger won the Pro UTV Open Class, earning back-to-back wins at the race and extending Polaris's winning streak to three consecutive years. Heger started eighth and methodically worked through the field, using the RZR Pro R Factory's capabilities to secure the victory.
- Brock Heger – 1st place (back-to-back winner)
- Joe Terrana – 2nd place (first podium with RZR Factory Racing)
- Dallas Gonzalez Jr. – 3rd place (first race with new RZR Pro R Factory)
“Today my Polaris RZR Pro R Factory performed flawlessly, and it feels amazing to go back-to-back at San Felipe. Starting eighth reminded me of something my dad always told me, 'sometimes slower is faster.' I stayed patient, picked my lines, and trusted the car.”
The brutal 281-mile course tested both drivers and machines with whoops, rock sections, and dry lake beds. Joe Terrana finished second in a smooth, mistake-free run, while Dallas Gonzalez Jr., with only 20 miles of shake-down time, secured third. The team now looks ahead to the Baja 500 on June 3-7, 2026.
Why this matters
The win reinforces Polaris's dominance in UTV desert racing and showcases the performance and reliability of the RZR Pro R Factory.
