Welcome to Vega Racing!
Hi, we’re Vega Racing, a Professional Class F1 in Schools team! This year we’re representing Scotland at the 2024 World Finals in Saudi Arabia, and we’d love to take you along for the ride.
What is F1 in Schools?
F1 in Schools is an international youth competition with a focus on STEM, where teams of students design, build and race miniature F1 cars. Alongside this, teams must produce portfolios covering their engineering and enterprise work, a pit display, a verbal presentation and fundraise to support their F1 in Schools journey. F1 in Schools offers students the chance to enter the world of STEM, form contacts in F1, and learn practical skills they can apply in later careers. Through both its industry partners and close connection to F1, the competition has offered many a pathway into working in the sport, an opportunity we are eager to take ourselves!
About Us
We’re a Professional Class F1 in Schools team formed of six students from Linlithgow Academy, competing in the 2024 World Finals. Previously, we’ve won the Scottish Regional Finals before coming 2nd in the UK National Finals, allowing us to qualify for Worlds! We’re hugely community oriented, supporting the F1 in Primary Schools competition in our local area and partnering with local businesses to succeed together. We never would have been able to progress to the massive stage of Worlds without our community’s backing, so we hope to continue our crucial link with them into the future.
