The event organising team clarifies details of the 2021 competition at Silverstone.

Due to ongoing restrictions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, we are limiting attendance at this year’s live event at Silverstone to the following:

  • Teams who successfully receive a Pass for their VSR and/or VSV and are proceeding with their FS/FS-AI entry*
  • FS-AI DDT teams proceeding with their entry*
  • Registered Officials
  • Approved Contractors
  • Competition Sponsors and Partners invited by the IMechE
  • A limited number of VIP guests invited by the IMechE

*Note: If you received a VSR/VSV pass but have since transferred to Concept Class or have withdrawn completely, or you are an FS-AI team and have switched to static only or have withdrawn completely, you are no longer eligible to attend the live event.

A full list of teams who are eligible to attend the live event is available on the Formula Student website.

Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate spectators this year, however we will be live streaming the Dynamic events on the Saturday and Sunday via the Formula Student YouTube channel and we look forward to seeing you there.

Those who are eligible to attend the live event

A PDF document has been released to provide as much information as possible regarding preparation for the live event, COVID-19 mitigation and what to expect on site; this is available here. If you require any further information on anything in the document, please get in touch by email and we’ll do our best to help clarify.  To confirm, this document is only applicable to those eligible to attend the live event, as listed at the top of this article and teams as per the Formula Student website
