00:00After nearly a week on the road, the journey is finally complete.
00:06Brunel, the first to cross the finish line.
00:11The sweet taste of victory after holding off fellow Dutch competitor Twente,
00:15who were hot on their heels the whole way.
00:173,000 kilometres and only minutes apart from our competitors.
00:21Very, very strong competitors this year. Just insane.
00:26The victory arriving nearly six years after Brunel,
00:29previously known as Vattenfall, were forced out of the race
00:33when their vehicle burst into flames on the Stuart Highway.
00:36To rise back from the ashes, come back stronger every time.
00:39And yeah, we drove a record time today in Adelaide, so I'm really glad.
00:44All 34 teams designed and made their own unique vehicles,
00:47each team taking a different approach to tackle the gruelling 3,000-kilometre journey,
00:53taking over five days.
00:55The finish line providing a sense of relief,
00:57with another two-year wait before Brunel gets the chance to defend their title.
01:01Celebrating with friends and family who made the long trip to Australia.
01:05The work that we did today was based upon 25 years of work from previous years,
01:11and all that knowledge we put right into this car.
01:14Runners-up 20 celebrated just as hard as their compatriots.
01:18Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
01:21Taking a moment or two to soak it all in.
01:23Make it all in.
