Electrek Formula Sun Grand Prix 2026: Day 2 results and images
Key Points:
- The second day of the Electrek Formula Sun Grand Prix saw École de technologie supérieure (ÉTS) from Quebec leading the Single Occupant Vehicle (SOV) class with 234 laps, closely followed by Delft University of Technology from the Netherlands with 221 laps, which holds the fastest lap time at 3 minutes 12 seconds (about 58 mph).
- In the Multi-Occupant Vehicle (MOV) class, only two of nine vehicles, Georgia Tech and App State, have qualified for the American Solar Challenge (ASC) so far, with 160 and 146 laps respectively.
- To qualify for the 2026 ASC, teams must complete either 200 miles (65 laps) in one day or 300 miles (97 laps) over two consecutive days; MOV rankings depend on a scoring system balancing speed, laps, and person-miles against a target speed.
- The final day of racing is underway with 30 teams on track and 12 qualified for ASC; more teams, including Iowa State, Poly Montréal, and MIT, are expected to qualify by the end of the day barring any major issues.
- Day 2 results and team standings are available on the American Solar Challenge’s results page, with event photography capturing the action.
