the racing one sounds like a neat concept in general. I'm betting that these were the only entries.
No, you could see the entries during the contest. There were a lot of entries. But a lot of them were very bad.
So, we found out that the judges never considered any of the media submitted with the entries. We were allowed to submit up to 3 images and two videos with our proposals. The rules clearly state that videos and such aren't required, but they will help your chances as they'll give the judges more info about your idea. NOW, we're being told that all along, the judges were only going to see the text descriptions of the concepts 'to be fair to those without technical skills'. This is completely untrue, and, even throughout the contest, in the support forum, we asked repeatedly about the media and were told repeatedly not to worry, the judges would see all of it.
At this point, we (the people who actually put effort into their proposals) have to call shenanigans. This is just utterly ridiculous. It's no wonder people are outraged over the quality level of the finalists, as the audience got to see the actual submissions, and the judges saw something different. Below is my entry, which I spent a week on, and included two five minute videos and 3 high rez images. Please, take a look at it, compare it to the finalists, and then make a judgment as to whether the 'best' entries were selected.
All of this somewhat explains why a copyrighted image slipped through, as the judges never even saw it. At this point, the organizers of this contest really need to take some action to rectify this situation. Their finalists selections are laughable. Laughable doesn't make for good PR.
