<strong>Formula</strong> <strong>Student</strong> <strong>Germany</strong> is an international design competition. This means, the design event is the most<br />
important static event. The winner of the design event will get 150 points.<br />
Here are some tips to help you score higher in the engineering design event: Be on time! Make sure your car<br />
is in race-ready condition and your team members are well prepared. Bring all engineering documentation with<br />
you. Read and understand the rules.<br />
Judging sequence<br />
At <strong>Formula</strong> <strong>Student</strong> <strong>Germany</strong>, design judging will involve two parts:<br />
1. Initial judging of all vehicles<br />
2. Final judging ranking the top vehicles.<br />
Medical Center<br />
You should start with a 3-5 minute overview presentation of the car. It is up to you how you use this presentation<br />
time: introducing the team, the car or the design goals etc. This presentation time will be followed by a 40<br />
minute discussion with the judges. You are done after 45 minutes.<br />
There is no time limit in the design finals. The design finals are not public. Only 10 team members of the design<br />
finalists have access to the FSG Forum.<br />
To score high in the design event, we would suggest you to bring all necessary papers with you, which underline<br />
your engineering work. If you have done any tests, bring the results with you. Judges only believe what they<br />
see, not what you tell them. Read the Caroll Smith “Everything You Wanted to Know about Design Judging”<br />
paper available on the <strong>Formula</strong> SAE website.<br />
The judges will be around on Friday and Saturday. Feel free to ask them about your car. They will be more than<br />
happy to answer all your questions.<br />
