Since 2012, 七彩直播 Racing has been building race cars with ambition, grit, and a small but dedicated team and the support of our sponsors. We take on big challenges, learn fast, and compete against teams many times our size AND we鈥檙e always looking for new engineers and enthusiasts to join the journey.
七彩直播 Racing is 七彩直播鈥檚 student-led motorsport team. Since 2012, we鈥檝e designed, built and campaigned Formula Student race cars. This give members the chance to work on a real engineering project from concept to competition.
You鈥檒l gain practical experience across design, manufacturing, testing and race operations, while also developing the professional skills that make teams work: project planning, sponsor management, documentation, and presenting technical decisions under pressure
Get stuck into CAD, analysis, fabrication, vehicle dynamics, data, testing, and problem-solving with real constraints and real deadlines.
We’ve punched above our weight with a modest team and car. After a steady build over the years, we achieved a 6th place overall finish in 2022.
Following an EV pivot and a return to an IC platform, 2026 is our second year rebuilding while we continue sustainability development such as EV and E85 propulsion.
Sponsors and partners provide components and expertise that help us push performance and give members invaluable exposure to industry practices.
