Brunel racing – reliability, simplicity and credibility

Having the backing of Bosch, the biggest automotive supplier in the world, Brunel Racing have their eye on a podium finish at this year's competition.

This year will see the team compete in their 18th season of FSAE competition with a fresh young team looking to make this year’s car, BR-18, one of our most successful to date. Lead by Team Principals Jack Chamberlain and Luke Waldron, the team aims to develop and produce the next evolution of Brunel’s combustion vehicle effort whilst retaining the teams’ ethos of reliability, simplicity and credibility.

To date the team has been concentrating its efforts on the design phase of the season. Our team of nine managers has lead work concentrated within both design and simulation to bring together some major updates for the upcoming car. As well as this the team has enjoyed some valuable testing time with BR-17 in order to gain crucial data, whilst cohesively training two new drivers for this year’s competitions.

Heading into the 2017 season the team are working hard on ensuring maximum testing time before competition, including at the world renowned MIRA technology park, courtesy of Bosch.  Sponsorship manager Sean Dorling can’t wait to put the car through its paces in the warm up event.

Watch this space for continued updates on the team’s progress, media coverage and sponsorship announcements.
