Being on the Team means being part of an ambitious university project, where many students from different faculties, teachers from the Faculty of Engineering, specific companies in the automotive industry and beyond, as well as experts in the field of motoring are involved. Joining the team allows all student-members to take responsibility for working, both as individuals and as a group, to accomplish the team’s goals but also to connect with personalities and exponents of the automotive industry. It means being able to actively participate in Formula SAE competitions, which are useful for making oneself known to the Automotive sector, often interested in personalities who already have experience in the working world of this sector. But being part of the UNIPR RACING TEAM means being a team and being a GROUP working for and with a common goal by participating in experiences that will allow those who take part to experience memorable moments and meet many people.
