The article claims this team won third place in the hydrogen fuel category, but I can't find them in the listing, #65 and #86 are Turkish but different teams ?

Also the top performer has a whopping 3771 km/l, or 8870 mpg, which I think is absolutely amazing.

Well... at least they're rethinking car design along the way. That might actually help them (and us).

The hydrogen part? not so much.

Hmm, any word on:

(1) The hydrogen fuel system itself -- did it burn it? fuel cell? fuel-cell electric hybrid?

(2) The fuel and measurement -- A liter of compressed* hydrogen doesn't have much energy in it. Are they talking equivalent-gasoline mpg?

* And the higher the compression, the heavier the storage tank.
