Yesterday we had our last testing day at the Brabazon Hangers 😢 We would like to thank the team at YTL Arena for their support over the last few years and the opportunity to use their space to test our cars. Check out the team from one of our first tests at the Concorde hanger in 2023 alongside the team from the last testing at the site! #UWEFS #UWEBristol #FS2024 #FormulaStudent #RaceCar #Motorsport

Technician appreciation! Showing our appreciation for our team of technicians at UWE! Without their skills and expertise we wouldn’t be able to build our car every year. Here are just a few of them helping us out! #UWEFS #UWEBristol #FS2024 #FormulaStudent #RaceCar #Motorsport

We’ve had a busy first few weeks at UWE FS! The team leads and returning team members have been working hard on designing the 2025 car as well as welcoming over 120 new team members in our first meeting. Each of the sub team leads have been focusing on teaching the new members the skills they will need to progress within the team both in the workshop and in the design phase. In addition to this we have started CAD workshops for all members to learn Solidworks. We have also restarted our weekly sessions in the School of Engineering - UWE Bristol Digital Gallery. Thank you to Andy Hill for letting us use the simulators. #UWEFS #FormulaStudent #Motorsport #UWE
