Freudenberg at Formula Student Germany

The asphalt of the Hockenheimring shimmers in the summer heat. Electric motors hum in the pit lane, the smell of rubber hangs in the air, and teams from all over the world work on their self-built racing cars in the pit lane. 3,100 students from 22 nations, divided into 84 teams, compete against each other in Formula Student Germany (FSG) – a competition in which speed is only one side of the coin. Technical sophistication, clever designs, and economic efficiency are just as important.
