The world of rallying is about to get a little more exciting as the Skoda team announces a bold move: a two-car attack on the rally championship. This isn't just any team; it's led by the legendary Scott Pedder, a veteran with nearly 30 years of racing experience under his belt. What makes this announcement particularly intriguing is the team's dual driver line-up, a strategy that hasn't been seen since 2010. Personally, I think this move is a strategic masterstroke, leveraging the strengths of two drivers to challenge for the championship. The team's first dual driver line-up since 2010 is a bold move, and I'm eager to see how it unfolds. The Skoda Fabia RS Rally2 and Fabia R5 will be the weapons of choice, with the team run by Maximum Motorsport, a veteran-led operation with Dean Herridge at the helm. The team's strategy is to field two cars, each with a unique driver and co-driver combination. Scott Pedder, a seasoned pro, will be joined by Glenn Macneall, while emerging talent Jackson Long and his father Damien will contest the season in a Fabia R5. Jackson Long, an 18-year-old from Sydney, is no stranger to rallying. He's already made a name for himself in the WRX Challenge, winning the Junior Cup championship in his debut season. What makes this pairing particularly interesting is the opportunity for Jackson to learn from his father's vast experience, a dynamic that could be a game-changer for his development.
