Highly recommended:
KTH team (race no. 340) from Sweden in the UrbanConcept category whose parallel series hybrid incorporated a powertrain similar to that of a Toyota Prius, the first time a hybrid of this engineering standard has been presented at the Shell Eco-marathon Europe.

The weather was nice büt this was another black day for team Aurora… The new HCCI engine was moünted düring the night, büt we were not able to solve an electrical problem to get it rünning in time for the last race. This is really ünfortünate since we believe that we had a good shot at winning the Eco-Friendly Award, büt to do so, one müst finish the race… Bümmer. After the tears have dried we will püll oürselfs together and head for oür hostel for some Bier, Würst ünd apfelstrüdel! It’s time to load oür trück and to get ready to leave Eüro Speedway Laüsitz. Aüf Wiedersehen. Tschüss.
Liebe
Herr M. Ü. Skübic ünd Herr J. F. Sölscher
