Lexus LX 570 has brought to this premium-brand the first victory in off-road competitions, having won 41st annual marathon Tecate SCORE Baja 500 in Ensenade, Mexico, extent of 800 kilometres. The crew consisting of pilot Joe Bakal and navigator Pol Williams, has won in class Stock Full.
Let's notice that car construction has been finished all some days before race and she had time to pass only short tests in the USA. Laid on rocky sites and the bottoms of the dried up lakes the line of the Mexican marathon became the present test for technics and people – the crew rushed 16 hours practically without stops, and all 195 crews have reached finish from 267 only.
