STEM Racing is a global educational program that aims to raise awareness of STEM and Formula 1® cars and technology among school students around the world.

Students are challenged and inspired through a STEM-based learning program covering topics including physics, aerodynamics, design, manufacturing, branding, graphics, sponsorship, marketing, leadership/teamwork, media skills, and financial strategy. Students then apply what they have learned in a practical, creative, and competitive environment that simulates the setup of professional F1® teams only in miniature.

The program inspires and challenges students to use IT to learn about:

physics, aerodynamics, design, manufacturing, branding, graphics, sponsorship, marketing, leadership and teamwork, media, financial strategy.

The students will then be able to apply what they learn in practical, imaginative, competitive and exciting ways.

1.       DESIGN – Students must design a small F1 car using Computer Aided Design such as Autodesk Fusion.

2.       ANALYSE – Using Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) software and other methods of design analysis along with scientific principles, students must analyse their car design to ensure it is efficient.

3.       MAKE – Students then manufacture the car using F1 model block and CNC Machines, along with using 3D printers and other manufacturing techniques to create additional components to their car and assemble it.

4.       TEST - Using the Air Trace Visualisation System and racing the car down the track, the teams must test their car to ensure it will withstand the forces applied to it during the race.

5.       RACE – This is where all the students hard work comes together, they must show sportsmanship and professionalism while showcasing their teamwork, and racing their car down the track to get the fastest time.
