1st Red Bull Soapbox Race in Medellin

The first Red Bull Soapbox Race of Colombia will take place in Medellin on September 6, the energy drink company announced.

The competitors need to create and build a soapbox – the more eccentric the better – and then race down a circuit with speed and style.

The jury will evaluate time and creativity of the vehicle. But also the audience will have a chance to select its favorite.

The first edition of this event took place in Belgium in 2000. Since then people in almost 30 countries celebrated the Red Bull Soapbox Race.
