Description
Intrepid engineering students (and soon to be graduates) are hoping to become the first LJMU team to get an electric racing car around the world-famous Formula 1 track at Silverstone.
In this episode, we find out more about the Formula Student competition, as well as discussing the challenges around the transition to electric vehicles.
Dr Christian Matthews from the School of Engineering is guiding and advising the team taking part in this year’s competition. He’s joined here by LJMU e-Racing Head of Team 2022, MSc student Cameron Reedy, and former Head of Team, Rhian Griffith, who now works as a mechanical engineer at the Small Robot Company.
Formula Student is Europe’s leading university motorsport competition.
