DeMartile Conquers Washougal with Wire-to-Wire Win

Dare DeMartile delivered a commanding performance at Round 5 of the 2026 WORCS series, securing a wire-to-wire victory in the Pro 450 class at the iconic Washougal MX Park. Launching his Beta Factory 450 RC off the start, DeMartile immediately claimed the lead and utilized the technical forest sections and slippery terrain to his advantage, maintaining a relentless pace under sunny Pacific Northwest skies. Despite heavy pressure throughout the two-hour endurance race, DeMartile remained composed and error-free, crossing the finish line with the lead. This victory not only highlights his mastery of diverse terrain but also reinforces the “rideability” of his machine. The championship battle intensifies as Dare is only two points back of the lead halfway through the season.

“It was a great weekend for me and the Beta USA crew! We got off to a first-place start and led every lap to the finish line. The track was awesome with very technical sections and slippery terrain. I was happy to start out front and manage it really well.”
