STEM: F1 Cars in Schools Challenge
This is a call out to students in years 8, 9 and 10 who are interested in being part of our F1 Cars in Schools Program.
The F1 in Schools STEM Challenge provides an exciting and engaging experience for students through the captivating appeal of Formula 1. Through the challenge, teams of students use Computer Aided Design (CAD) to design, analyse, manufacture, test and race model F1 cars manufactured from a block of balsa wood. The cars race on a 20m track powered by CO2 canisters and reach speeds of up to 80km/h.
The program allows students to learn about physics, aerodynamics, design processes, manufacturing, marketing, graphics, sponsorship, teamwork, communication, media, careers, finance and to bring all these together practically and creatively to compete with their peers.
Below is a link to a video which will show you what the program will look like.
