We want participants to be inspired by their favourite sports cheering on the GB athletes. To enter simply design a part of a Greenpower car incorporating elements of the Olympic games. Designs could look to include equipment used in other sports like table tennis paddle mirrors or celebrate traditions such as an Olympic torch nose cone! The best designs will focus on the theme of the competition whilst also being original and efficient in their design.
