Team Profile:
HFS Racing Team was established in 2010 to be the first Egyptian, Arabian and African team to participate in Formula Student UK. Despite the fact that the Middle East region has no automotive manufacturing, HFS managed to build 2 racing cars. This year’s design main feature is simplicity for ease and cheap manufacture with considerations to reduce weight and improve aerodynamics. Our target this year is to participate in the dynamic event gaining new experience.
