Team Director, Salford University Race Team
Ever wondered what goes into building and financing a formula one car?
A team of mechanical engineering and business students have been finding out!
For the first time ever the University of Salford is competing in Formula Student. It is the world’s largest student competition, involving 100 teams from across the world tasked with designing, building and racing a formula style single seat race car. This is a multi-disciplinary project and requires a team from across a number of subject areas including business where sponsorship and marketing activities are required to raise the funding for the car’s development.
Salford University Racing Team is a fantastic opportunity to work on a real world class project. Currently we are in our first year and we are looking to develop a critical mass of enthusiasts to keep the momentum going for many years to come.
Do you like fast cars and want to get closer to understanding how the racing business works?
