F1 in Schools
F1 in Schools is an international STEM competition for school children, in which groups of 3–6 students have to design and manufacture a miniature car out of the official F1 Model Block using CAD/CAM design tools. The cars are powered by CO₂ cartridges and are attached to a track by a nylon wire.
The competition
Apparently, though the competition revolves mainly around creating our own miniature car designs, it is not all about that.
It’s a whole points grading system in which racing and the development of the car give around only half of the points. All the other points depend on how well we represent our team as a company, our striking team identity, our goals, our business management, sponsorships etc.
Which means people of various interests can participate.
Students who participate are either one or more of the following :
(So there are no limitations to how exciting this competition can get)
