Tough Doesn’t Quit Featuring Fernanda Montiel
We are excited to share the latest episode of Polaris Off Road’s Tough Doesn’t Quit series, celebrating International Female Riders Day with the first Hispanic woman to win a Baja Championship and a rising star in the off-road racing community. Fernanda Montiel embodies a distinct persona on and off the track, showcasing her versatility as a competitor and individual. Watch her incredible journey as she rises to become one of the most influential female riders in a sport long dominated by men.

Her journey started at just three years old in her father’s garage, where her love for racing first ignited. From the beginning, Fernanda and her family worked tirelessly to keep her dream alive—securing sponsorships and building her career from the ground up. Today, she competes alongside her brother, her co-pilot, dedicating every spare moment to refining her skills and chasing podium finishes.
As the first Polaris Racing Mexico rider, Fernanda is committed to shaping her legacy and pushing boundaries in the sport.
