ABOUT FORMULA STUDENT Formula Student (FS) is Europe’s most established educational motorsport competition, run by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Backed by industry and high profile engineers such as their Patron Ross Brawn OBE, the competition aims to inspire and develop enterprising and innovative young engineers. Universities from across the globe are challenged to design and build a single-seat racing car. They compete at Silverstone Circuit, home of the British Grand Prix, in a three-day event where their car’s performance, design and sustainability as well as the students’ ability to present their business case, is assessed. Diverse range of prestigious industrial organisations such as Mercedes Amg Petronas, Formula One Team, Jaguar, Land rover, National Instruments, Airbus and Shell have shown their tremendous support to the competition by building associations with the participating teams for many years and helping them to shape the Future of Automotive Industry. At FS, our competitors gain crucial practical experience and transferable skills, preparing them for employment in a diverse range of industries.
