Race tegen de wind sinds 2008

De first race!

​The first edition took place in 2008 as part of the event around The Tall Ships' Races​ ​(Wikipediapage.) ​in Den Helder. Due to sponsorship issues, the 2009 and 2010 editions were held in Denmark and the 2010 event was also known as the Wind Turbine Race. From 2011 the event will again take place in Den Helder. From 2014, the Gerard-Broers Innovation Award will be awarded, named after the winner of 2013 (Gerard Broers innovation award). ​who died in that year. As of 2015, a drag race is held. In 2009, a prize was set for achieving 100% efficiency. This €1000 prize, offered by ECN, was won in 2016 by the WinDTUbineracer team from Danmarks Tekniske Universitet. DTU then offered a prize of €1250 for the first team to achieve 125% efficiency. The 2020 and 2021 editions were canceled due to the corona pandemic
