Moses Lumala, a rallying icon, recently acquired the Ford Fiesta NRC Evo2 from Neiksans Rallysport in Latvia. The veteran driver traveled to Latvia not only to secure the car but also to test it, ensuring it meets his expectations for the competitive 2025 season. Lumala, last seen in action during a sprint at Festino Cite, has been on a break from active rallying. However, the acquisition of this cutting-edge rally machine signals a thrilling comeback, promising high-level competition in the upcoming rallying calendar.

On the other hand, Duncan Mubiru, popularly known as Kikankane, has been preparing behind the scenes. Mubiru made the strategic decision to sit out the 2024 season, sending his Ford Fiesta NRCProto to Latvia for a complete rebuild and expert tuning. This meticulous preparation reflects his commitment to excellence as he gears up for a stronger performance in the 2025 National Rally Championship.
