UoP Racing is the Formula Student team of the University of Patras. Since 2002, students design, build and race a single-seater against hundreds of university teams from around the world.
Our team is made up of students, mainly from the Department of Mechanical Engineering & Aeronautics, and since 2013 also from Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Economics and Business Administration. Each module has a leader who coordinates its members, and everyone gives up their free time to get a car to the grid.
Since 2014 we work with a resource-efficiency mindset: design and materials are judged on their environmental impact and their price-to-performance ratio. That pushes us towards unconventional ideas, like UoP5e’s cut-and-fold aluminium honeycomb monocoque.
