Team profile
This is Teesside Universities first year of entry into the Formula Student competition. A new team has formed of keen students a group of whom currently work in the European racing circuit.
The focus of the Teesside approach is to reduce weight and drag by bringing as many components in-board as possible including radiators and suspension.
Teesside aims to develop a competitive FS car in the next few years and incorporate new technologies and instrumentation into our fundamental concept.
