Sheffield Formula Racing (SFR) has come a long way since its humble beginnings just over a year ago. With help from our university and partners, we are proud to present our second entry into Formula Student; a completely new design with little taken from our previous car. Under the leadership of team creator Marissa Bole, SFR has just over 40 members incorporating both new and experienced students from across the Engineering Faculty. In the words of Colin Chapman, we kept to a simple design philosophy of “performance through low weight and simplicity” to ultimately achieve our aim of competing in all the dynamic events and to be competing at the very top in both the cost and business presentation events. This year’s car was designed with much more of a focus on the engineering detail with the driver at its heart. It allows for ease of adjustability and the potential for further development. Highlights include a completely new brake, hub and upright package reducing the weight of the assembly by just over 60% and a 50% weight reduction in the chassis alone.
