[Formula Student] The future of F1?
Saturday, June 4, 2011
Entrants score points in each discipline across all categories, so the race is not all about speed; the eventual winner will need to have excelled across all areas. Formula Student is seen as one of the best "laboratories" for future F1 technologies. In fact 16 Class 1A cars will race in July, 13 of which will be electric, with organisers asking whether it raises the spectre of F1 "going electric".
"The electric cars in our Class 1A are now as fast, if not faster, than the petrol cars as the technology catches up," said a Formula Student spokesman. "The petrol car class will be merged with Class 1A next year." The students working on the cars are, say the organisers, future F1 technical directors and chief engineers, a factor recognised by the series' patron Ross Brawn, and James Allison, technical director at Lotus Renault GP, who is ambassador to the event this year.The organisers say they will soon announce an F1 "legend" who will attend the event, following in the footsteps of Damon Hill and David Coulthard.

The biggest ever Formula Student competition will be staged at Silverstone this summer, attracting engineering talent from all over the globe. The aim is for students to design and build their own single-seater that must meet a raft of exacting technical, design, speed, endurance and environmental criteria.
The biggest ever Formula Student competition will be staged at Silverstone this summer, attracting engineering talent from all over the globe. The aim is for students to design and build their own single-seater that must meet a raft of exacting technical, design, speed, endurance and environmental criteria.
More than 131 teams have already applied to take part in the event scheduled for July 14-17, but the organisers anticipate that the demanding entry conditions will see this whittled down to a list of about 110 teams who will finally compete at Silverstone the week after the British Grand Prix. About 60 per cent of competitors will come from the UK, with other teams flying in from Australia, Germany, Palestine, Nigeria, the US, India and Thailand. Formula Student 2011 will feature the event's highest number of low-carbon cars thus far, taking part in its Class 1A, which assesses cars on their emission levels and sustainability as much as their design and speed.

Thursday, June 2, 2011
PETALING JAYA: Bosch recently announced that it will be sending an additional team to represent Malaysia at the Bosch Power Tools Asia Cordless Race 2011 Grand Finals in Beijing from Sept 21 to 23. Bosch made the decision due to the overwhelming response received since the competition was launched on April 1.
A total of 53 blueprints were submitted from 21 private and public universities nationwide.
Both the champion and runners-up from the qualifying race will compete against finalists from Thailand, China, South Korea and the Philippines.
The company has also increased the number of finalists to 12 teams from the initial eight.
Bosch made the announcement during a racers briefing for the students at its Regional Training Facility in Petaling Jaya where the company unveiled its finalists.
Each team was also presented with a grant of RM12,000 and six Bosch cordless impact drills and driver units to build their race karts.
The interactive session saw Bosch Power Tools experts providing the finalists with the full specifications for the kart which they are to build.
The finalists were also given the opportunity to consult on the technicalities of building a race kart powered entirely by Bosch Li-Ion technology.
Robert Bosch Sdn Bhd regional sales director for Asean South, Chu Chee Bee, said it received many outstanding entries which made the selection of the 12 finalists a daunting task.
"We are confident that the finalists will build some truly competitive designs. The stage is set for an incredibly exciting race day.
"The competition is designed to provide budding engineers with a platform to explore their creativity and talent," added Chu.
The finalists are Mechanical Engineering Research Team, Raging Bull and The Fast 5 teams from Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman; Quad Drive and T-Drive teams from UCSI University; Shooting Star from Universiti Teknologi Petronas; UTHM-FKMP-1 from Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia; Chuck Norris Racing from The University of Nottingham Malaysia; Bunja Racing Team from The Otomotif College; Cyclones from INTI College; N-Gage from Universiti Putra Malaysia, and Silence Killer from University College of Technology & Innovation.
