Hi Seeker team, I’ve always loved your channel for its insightful and well-researched informational videos. It’s been a couple of years since you last posted, and your content is truly missed by many of us. Please consider returning to create more of those amazing videos that made learning so enjoyable. We’re eagerly waiting for your comeback!

Lmao Germans with their simple german naming for the car, "Sonnenwagen" literaly means Solar/Sun vehicle

I would love to see a race such as this only with one rule. It must be solar powered. Now That would be fun to watch. Don't get me wrong, I can't wait to see who wins. I want one.

As a person with Turkish ancestry, yet born and raised in the Netherlands I am incredibly proud to be part of this amazing culture we have, and I am glad Dutch pioneers are winning races!
