Ensenada, BC - #BC13
Representing the heart of Baja's racing culture from his Ensenada base, Axl Sandoval has established himself as a formidable force in SCORE International desert racing. His breakthrough performance came at the 2021 SCORE Baja 500, where he secured a commanding second-place class finish in the historic desert classic, demonstrating the skill and determination that defines elite off-road competition.
Operating from the epicenter of Baja racing, Sandoval brings intimate knowledge of the peninsula's challenging terrain to every race. His podium finish at the Baja 500 showcased his ability to navigate the technical demands of SCORE's most prestigious events, where mechanical precision and strategic racing separate contenders from champions.
The Ensenada-based racer competes in an era of unprecedented competition depth, where the return of traditional race formats and massive contingency areas have elevated the sport's profile. His consistent performance in SCORE's signature events reflects both natural talent and the dedication required to excel in desert racing's premier series.
With his proven ability to contend for podium positions in SCORE's most demanding races, Sandoval continues building his reputation as one of Baja's rising talents in the ultra-competitive world of desert racing.
While the Baja Challenge teams are typically made up of racers who want to experience a SCORE race, the team that puts it all together is some of the most logistical and knowledgeable in all of SCORE racing. Most of the time, the BC cars have the highest finishing rate of any class and at this race, they lived up to that challenge. All three cars finished the SCORE Baja 500 with the BC1 car of Jay Jakupca and James DeGaine finishing first. The BC13 car of Axi Sandoval, Enrique, Rodriguez, Esteban Rodiguez, and Geraldo Solorio finished second. In third place was the BC4 car of Edward Muncey, with Roger Norman, Joe Duryea, John Pasha, Bill Evans and Riley Pasha. Read More
