Formula Student Bizkaia competed in FSUK at Silverstone with both an electric car and an autonomous driving system. Despite challenges, they successfully passed inspections and defended their designs, with their autonomous system achieving first place in the AI Design Event.
This year, Formula Student Bizkaia has once again to participate in FSUK. We had been preparing for a whole year to be able to
