Make the Future and Shell Eco-marathon in pictures

Last month we brought you video footage of Rachel Riley and Alex Brooker on the promotional trail for the Make the Future London festival, which featured the Shell Eco-marathon

Along with Riley and Brooker, the weekend itself saw a host of other celebrities in attendance, including Pelé, Kimi Raikonnen and Pixie Lott. The Student Engineer has already covered the results of the Eco-marathon, but here’s a roundup of the best images from the weekend, from both the race and some of the other festival events.
