Toby Price, Paul Weel and Larry Roeseler will tackle the 2023 Baja 1000
Two Australian motorsport icons, Toby Price and Paul Weel will team up with off road racing maestro, Larry Roeseler to form a formidable squad for the iconic Baja 1000.
The trio will undertake the venture with the support of Quad Lock and Baja Vida, with both industry-leading companies committed to pushing the limits of performance and endurance in the world of off road racing.
The popular event, known for its treacherous and challenging terrain will take place mid-November and see the two-time Dakar Rally Winner in Price once again team up with the former Supercars driver in Weel, as they attempt to claim one of the world's highest glories of the great race.
Joining the duo, Roeseler is a name synonymous with the Baja 1000 and will be an invaluable addition to the team having already achieved his own accolades in recent times with six victories already to his name.
Dominic Storey, Partnerships Manager at Quad Lock, was excited to see Australia’s Price and Weel partner with the Baja legend for this year’s event.
“We are excited to see the Team Australia guys join forces with Baja Vida and Larry for the Baja 1000,” Storey said.
“With such an event being a test of both resources and endurance, this will hopefully bring the team the results they deserve. Our whole Quad Lock team is wishing Toby, Paul & Larry the best of luck.”
Brand Activation Director at Baja Vida, Chris Vorhies was looking forward to seeing their brand Ambassador partner with Team Australia for the massive race.
“We are excited and honoured to have the opportunity to race with Paul and Toby, we (the Baja Vida team) believe in this effort and feel as though we have a great opportunity to bring home a championship,” Vorhies said.
“Larry believes in teaming with another Moto rider, and who better than Toby Price? To have the racing talent that Paul brings behind the wheel with the vast knowledge of Larry in Baja, we feel we have a recipe for victory.”
The 2023 edition of the Baja 1000 will take place on 16-18 November.
