Formula Student Grand Finale

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 our 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 in order to compete in static and dynamic events, which demonstrate their understanding and test the performance of the vehicle.

Each team goes through a rigorous testing process through the following:

Static Events:

Design, Cost and Sustainability, and Business Presentation Judging
Technical and Safety Scrutineering
Tilt Test
Brake and Noise Test

Dynamic Events:
