WDR SX R01 Recap (Pro)
s0urce Dominates Pro Class at Round 1
The Pro class delivered one of the fastest and most technical showcases of the season at WDR Supercross Round 1, with the demanding track format immediately rewarding consistency, rhythm, and intelligent race execution.
With 20 minutes on the clock plus one lap, riders had little room for mistakes. Every position mattered, and a single crash or poorly timed section could completely reshape the standings.
By the end of the night, one rider had clearly separated himself from the field.
s0urce Controls the Night
s0urce (#967) entered Round 1 carrying strong expectations, and by the end of the main event, he fully delivered. Winning the race while consistently posting some of the fastest laps of the night, s0urce established himself as the clear rider to beat heading into the official WDR season.
Round 1 - Strong Opening Statement
The opening race immediately showed the pace advantage at the front of the Pro field. While Waffleslayer (#220) grabbed the holeshot with an explosive 6.01-second start, s0urce quickly worked his way to the front and began laying down blistering laps. He eventually built a comfortable gap over Froxy (#462), crossing the finish line with a 47.28-second margin of victory.
Although s0urce checked out, the battle behind the leader remained intense throughout the 20-lap duration. Transcend (#965) secured a hard-fought third place after keeping a steady pace across the full distance. Sober (#114) and Winter (#522) battled closely inside the top five, both finishing just one lap down from the relentless pace of the leader.
Track limits and cutting penalties became an immediate factor, with several riders picking up time deductions throughout the race. venit (#504) and Kohy (#211) both racked up heavy penalties—5 seconds and 7 seconds respectively—which severely impacted their final track position.
One of the standout moments from Round 1 came from s0urce, who recorded the fastest lap of the race on his very final lap (Lap 20) with an impressive 58.934-second time, proving he had plenty of strength left in the tank.

Penalties and Mistakes Shape the Event
