Every summer since 1998, teams of college students from around the world have come to the United Kingdom to participate in the international Formula Student (FS) racing competition. Each team designs, builds, tests and races a small-scale formula-style car at the multiday event, which is run by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers.
FS winners are chosen in four categories. This past summer, Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands won both the Class 1 and dynamic events portions. The University of Stuttgart in Germany was the static events winner, and Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands won Class 2.
