<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 />
