Williams Lake, BC - #199A
From the rugged terrain of Williams Lake, British Columbia, this Canadian desert racing veteran brings decades of four-wheel experience to the brutal Baja Peninsula. While the unforgiving desert has tested his mettle multiple times, including a challenging DNF at the legendary Baja 1000 while piloting his #199A Polaris XP850 in the Sportsman Quads division, his persistence and determination continue to define his racing spirit.
As one of the international competitors highlighted in SCORE's official coverage, Paul Marcotte represents the global appeal of desert racing, joining fellow Canadian racers like Tristan Dietrich and international competitors from around the world who are drawn to Baja's ultimate test of man and machine. His choice of the powerful Polaris XP850 platform demonstrates his commitment to competitive equipment in the highly contested Sportsman Quads class.
The northern British Columbia native's journey to Baja exemplifies the sport's ability to attract dedicated racers from remote locations, proving that the call of desert racing transcends borders. His continued participation in SCORE's premier events showcases the unwavering dedication required to compete at the highest levels of off-road racing, where finishing is often as challenging as winning.
