Team Profile:

From Lund University comes Sweden’s southernmost Formula Student team, highly motivated to compete at Silverstone. Lund University is one of the oldest universities in europe, with roots dating back to the year 1425 and is frequently ranked as one of the top 100 Universities in the world. LFS-15 is the seventh Formula Student vehicle from Lund University. The concept of a CRFP monocoque, single cylinder CRF450X engine, 10″ tires and an aerodynamics package is derived from lapsims and benchmarking. Design priorities have been functionality, followed by reliability, adjustability, manufacturability and performance optimization.

During the design phase the technical team is divided into three subsystems; Chassis, Engine and Electronics. For efficient parts manufacturing the team was restructured into specific manufacturing responsibilities. A dedicated Marketing & Partnership (MaP) group deals with non technical aspects such as team communication, sponsorships, branding and finances. The managing groups consists of the Technical, Administrative, MaP, and Subsystem managers.

We would like thank all of our sponsors. Their support has made it possible for 35 students to grow on a professional level and as individuals. Together we have created something incredible.
