Dungey Wins Washougal Motocross National

Washougal, WA – Red Bull KTM Factory rider Ryan Dungey secured another win at the Washougal National to strengthen his points lead in the championship standings of the 450 Pro Motocross Championship.

Dungey’s win in the 450 Motocross class did not come easy as rain poured down on the track throughout the entire day making the course very muddy and slick. In the first moto, Dungey was able to pull a 6th place start and had moved up two positions by the end of the first lap. He spent the next few laps reeling in the 3rd place rider and was able to make a pass for the position on lap six. He continued to make passes and eventually moved his way into 2nd position. He pushed hard but was unable to close the gap and finished 2nd for moto one.

In the second moto, Dungey leaped off the line to a great 2nd place start. Dungey remained in 2nd place pressuring the lead ride of Justin Barcia throughout the majority of the race. With three laps to go, Barcia made a mistake and crashed which allowed Dungey to move into the lead. Dungey went on to collect the win and take the overall for the day.

“It feels really great to get the win today,” stated Dungey on the podium. “I had a lot of fun and am happy to continue to add to my points lead.”
