We are on our way for day 8 of the @Solar_Challenge! Today, we will finally find out who will finish with the most kilometers.
We are currently in 2nd place on the leaderboards and in 3rd place on the road. We are coming up to a steep mountain right before the stop of the day.
We are on our way to the finish of day 7! We managed to drive 10 loops today, where @solarteam_be drove 9 and @brunelsolarteam did 8. This gets us slightly closer to first place.
Tomorrow we will find out the final strategies of all teams and the winner of the @Solar_Challenge!
We are off for the blind-stage of the @Solar_Challenge! We started day 7 from first place on the grid.
Yesterday at 18:00, we received the route for today. A large part of the team dove straight into the strategy for this stage. We are curious to see what today will bring!
We are off for the sixth day of the @Solar_Challenge! We started in 2nd position, but already managed to overtake @solarteam_be. This takes us to first place on the road.
We have some more distance to cover compared to Innoptus, so we are curious to see what teams are planning!
We are currently driving back from the stop location in Pofadder to Springbok, where today's finish will be.
We drove six loops and are curious to see what the other teams are planning.

We started our second loop of the day!
After swapping positions with @solarteam_be for a few times, the top 3 is in the same order as at the start. We look forward to seeing every team's strategies today!

Today is the half-blind stage, and we only received the loop route yesterday evening. Many of our team members have worked hard to devise the optimal strategy!
We started from the second position, right behind @solarteam_be.
We remain confident and ready to take on the day!
We just left our last stop of the day! We are currently driving in second place, right behind @solarteam_be.

Good morning! Last night during the marathon stage, only three team members were allowed to work on the car until 22:30, but they got everything done. We started confidently at 08:01, right behind @brunelsolarteam .
We have just served our controlstop of the day! @brunelsolarteam and @solarteam_be both are serving their time penalties here. We left right behind Brunel Solar Team and are now driving in front of Innoptus Solar Team.
We have started the second day of the @Solar_Challenge from 2nd position. After 45 minutes, we also managed to pass @solarteam_be. We look forward to seeing what strategies every team has in store today! ๐ง
It is truly amazing to see the enthusiasm of the kids coming to admire the challenge! You could definitely say that the atmosphere at the control and loopstops is really great.
We have passed @solarteam_be ! After our loopstop, we started our first loop of the day. During the loop, a lot of traffic made it more difficult to drive fast. However, we navigated quite well and managed to stay in front of the Innoptus Solar Team.
