Newcastle Formula Student Team (Newcastle Racing)

We are the Formula Student team from Newcastle University. 

Here at Newcastle Racing, we believe in all things racing, and especially connecting the students with racing and in particular the Formula Student project. Every part of the car has come from our students, all designed, developed, and manufactured by members of our team.

Our previous generation of car, NRX, was the benchmark for all Electric Formula Student cars in the UK, being the first UK team to successfully get an electric car through scrutineering, as well as setting multiple records in the same year.

We’ve come along way since then through many generations of cars. This academic year, our team is building the next generation of car, NR15, with plans of using it as a base for many more successful cars in the future.

Recent Projects

Our team has been involved in the Formula Student competition for many years.

Formula Student is Europe’s most established engineering competition, which requires engineering students to design and build a fully electric car to be pitted against other university teams in a sprint and endurance race.

The competition provides the opportunity for students to demonstrate their engineering knowledge and to test and improve their capabilities to deliver a complex and integrated product in the competitive environment of a motorsport competition.
