"As a team of engineering students, we want to build the best car and win these races but obviously there's also a deeper mission. By developing these new cars we attempt to combine innovative ideas of bright engineering minds with Belgian international technologies. Our team also hopes to inspire the entrepreneurial minds of today's generation."
Listen to our unedited interview with Romanie Cnockaert, an engineering student specializing in computer sciences and electrical engineering at the KUL.
We talked about her role in the Agoria Solar Team and their latest victory in the iLumen European Solar Challenge, about sustainability, the difference between solar racing and F1/F2, and much more.
