Top half: a custom-built vehicle frame beside a red motorcycle under a banner labeled "OPENINVERTORS," suggesting a DIY or electric vehicle project. Bottom half: nine team members from "DCU SOLAR RACING" pose with a completed open-wheel race car, likely solar-powered, wearing matching shirts. The phrase "RELIVING DUBLIN MAKER 2025" is centered between the scenes.
