Emil Lindholm on his Skoda WRC2 return

Share

Emil Lindholm, a former WRC2 champion, has made a return to the Skoda team after a noteworthy period with Hyundai. Despite his impressive performances, the transition to a Rally1 seat proved elusive, owing primarily to Hyundai Motorsport’s lack of a robust junior programme.

Now, at the stunning Rally Islas Canarias, Lindholm finds himself back in the running for a podium finish. Faced with ever-changing tyre and road conditions, he considers the importance of adapting his driving style—an indication of both his ingenuity and determination.

What truly resonates, however, is Lindholm’s appreciation for the collaborative spirit at Toksport. He extols the camaraderie within the team, highlighting the fluid exchange of data and insights among drivers—a refreshingly collective approach that enhances the sport’s communal essence.

His return to Toksport and Skoda has reinvigorated Lindholm, as he delights in the familiar faces and the unmistakable positive energy pervading the team. His journey transcends mere competition; it embodies a profound connection to the sport, enriched through collaboration and mutual support. As the rally progresses, one can only anticipate how this experienced driver will leverage his knowledge to steer towards success.
