FSB RACING TEAM

The first and most successful Croatian Formula Student team

OUR STORY

We are a team of students from the University of Zagreb, Croatia, dedicated to conceptualizing, designing, and constructing single-seater race cars.

Our purpose is to compete in European Formula Student competitions, where the main focus isn’t lap times, but innovation, clever design and technology.

OUR HISTORY

The FSB Racing Team, a student initiative under the Croatian Student Association of Engineering Faculties, was established in 2003 at the University of Zagreb’s Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture. Their core mission is to design, develop, and manufacture formula-style single-seater race cars for participation in Formula Student competitions. Currently, it stands as one of Croatia's most significant student projects, boasting a membership of over 100 students.

Over the past two decades, the team has successfully built 12 race cars and competed in numerous annual Formula Student events across Europe. Each car represents a substantial undertaking, involving a rigorous process from initial conceptualization to the successful manufacturing and assembly of every subsystem and the final vehicle. Students are responsible for the design, development, and in some cases, even the manufacturing of each component.

The collective knowledge, effort, time, and dedication of every team member drive a shared goal: to complete each project and get the car on the track. Along the way, they compete against teams across Europe, represent the University of Zagreb, and gain experience that goes far beyond the classroom.

OUR BIGGEST ACHIEVEMENTS

Over the last 18 years, we have attended many European Formula Student competitions. Of course, the most important thing to point out is the 10th place out of 97 competitors in Silverstone, one of the most demanding competitions. 2018's repeat success with Strix in Silverstone is also something we are very proud of, winning 12th place. The table on the right shows all our successes in the past years.
