Round 3 - WORCS
 
LAKE HAVASU CITY, Ariz. – FMF KTM Factory Racing’s Dante Oliveira has extended his win-streak to three-in-a-row with another dominant victory at Round 3 of the World Off-Road Championship Series (WORCS) in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. Also putting together a perfect season thus far is FMF RPM KTM Racing Team Rider Mateo Oliveira, who claimed his third-consecutive Pro 250 class win. 
 
Oliveira, the defending series champion, powered his KTM 450 XC-F off the line to capture the holeshot and he put a six-second gap on the rest of the field by the end of the first lap. Continuously stretching his lead over the course of 25 laps, Oliveira rode mistake-free from start-to-finish, securing a 45-second victory over the second-place rider.
 
Dante Oliveira: “I always feel pretty good out here, it’s just like riding at home in the backyard, so I thrive in Havasu. I got a good start, better than the last few starts I’ve gotten here, so it made it a little easier on myself. I just set a pace, and if they wanted to push, I was ready to push. But nobody wanted to push today, so I just put it in cruise control and rode to the end. I was flowing and hitting my marks, so it was a good race for me.”
 
KTM-Supported rider, Brandy Richards, captured her third consecutive win in the Women’s Pro class, while also matching a season-best finish of second in the highly-competitive Pro Am division.
