Queen Mary Formula Student (QMFS) is a student-led motorsport team at Queen Mary University of London, dedicated to designing, building, and racing single-seater race cars in the annual Formula Student competition.
Since our establishment in 2016, we have grown into a diverse team of over 100 members, representing more than 26 nationalities and various academic disciplines, including Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Biochemistry, Computer Science, and Business Management.
Our commitment to innovation and excellence has led to significant achievements:
Our team thrives on the diverse perspectives and skills each member brings, fostering a collaborative environment that drives us toward our shared goal of engineering excellence.
In addition to hands-on experience in designing and building race cars, we have recently ventured into the world of sim racing. 2023 was the team's first time participating in the championship and we secured 9th out of 55 teams.

Formula Student is Europe's most established educational engineering competition which uses motorsport to inspire students.
Backed by industry and high-profile engineers such Patron, Ross Brawn OBE, the competition aims to develop enterprising and innovative young engineers and encourage more young people to take up a career in engineering, with over 100 university teams taking part every year.
The project usually forms part of a degree-level project and is viewed by the motorsport industry as the standard for engineering graduates to meet, transitioning them from university to the workplace. It is a kite-mark for real-world engineering experience, combining practical engineering experience with soft skills including business planning and project management.
