As one of the oldest UK Formula Student teams and a founding member of the Formula Student UK competition, we are a team rich with history. We have competed all over the world in events such as Michigan, Australia, Czech Republic and Germany.
After competing in FSAE Michigan in 1998, the University’s now-retired Senior Technician, Carl Hingley BEM, alongside Leeds and Hertfordshire Universities, was responsible for bringing the competition as we know it today to the UK.
Formula student is an engineering challenge involving the design and build of a single-seater open wheel race car. The competition combines the need for innovative engineering, careful project management and organised teamwork.
UBR23 is not quite here yet. But there has been plenty happening even though we have been away from the lab. Read about what the team has been up to this year and our adaption to the new way of virtual work.
