The FS Bizkaia Team comes back to Silverstone with one objective: being among the best thirty teams. All this season’s work has been aimed to achieve that goal. The car is lighter and smaller than its predecessors, it’s better adjusted and its performance and reliability have been greatly improved. Although only thirty members are taking part in the FS event at Silverstone, the team is much bigger (almost sixty people) and other team members will have their chance to represent the team at the FS Spain event in Barcelona. Our Faculty of Engineering has a strong tradition in excellence in mechanical design and it has been the team’s focus to live up to the expectations. Following a steady evolutionary path, this design has got rid of any past flaws and it’s been manufactured with the best materials and most precise processes available.
