Winners of Red Bull Soapbox Race Baku were determined during a colorful show in the capital city this weekend.

The world’s favorite festival of crashes and creativity was attended by Arzu Aliyeva and her family members.

The unique racing event was held with the support of the Heydar Aliyev Center and the Azerbaijan Automobile Federation.

More than 60 incredible teams fought for victory, but there were just three spots on the podium and just one winner.

So, "Bull & Co" team became the winner of the race, while "Nostandard" and "Angry birds" took second and third places respectively.

The first prize winner will join Red Bull Air Race in Abu Dhabi. The second place winner will visit "Hangar 7 ", the Museum of Red Bull in Austria.

The Red Bull Soapbox Race is an international event that started back in the year 2000, in Brussels. Since then, more than a hundred Red Bull Soapbox Races have been organized globally.

The Red Bull Soapbox races are held on a variety of different city courses around the world.

The contest rules are pretty simple! Racers are welcomed to build their own soapbox and compete against gravity. Each of these hand-made machines lack engine on them.

Drivers go to the top of a hill, gravity does its thing, and reach the bottom of the hill and people cheer. Or, as is quite often the case; gravity does its thing, you see a spectacular crash and people cheer anyway. All the rest is just bells and whistles.
