This is the third time AMZ Racing has attempted and broken this World Record, and a big part of our motivation comes from our friendly rivalry with the University of Stuttgart team @greenteam_stuttgart , which challenged us last year with their successful attempt. We appreciate your achievements as well as the targets you have set for us to aim for.

We would like to thank the @tufastracingteam team for their support. The team friendship between rivals on track is always a magic connection and we are happy to count you as both friends and worthy competitors. This is what the Formula Student spirit is all about and we are proud to carry it with us.

From 0 to 100 km/h in 0.956 seconds!!!

We just received confirmation that our attempt to break the World Record in acceleration for an EV has been accepted by Guinness. This is not only a world record but also the first time an electric vehicle has reached the sub-one second milestone.

This incredible achievement would not have been possible without the involvement of numerous members of the association, our universities @ethzurich and @hslu_luzern and the support of our sponsors. Thank you all for your collaboration and for believing in our dream.

From August 14th to 20th, Formula Student Germany 🇩🇪 took place at the Hockenheimring. Our fourth and last event was also the most important and biggest of the season. We started well into the event and were one of the first teams to pass the technical scrutineering. The subsequent static disciplines were also fruitful and we were able to win the engineering design event🥇. Subsequently, we started successfully in the dynamic disciplines and were able to achieve the best time in the acceleration event🥇, 3.27s, which is the best time ever of an AMZ car. Unfortunately we had bad luck with a perception sensor in the autonomous competition, so we could not finish two of four disciplines.

In the manual competition it was exciting until the very end as the team from Aachen and us were battling for the win until the end of the endurance final. In the end it was a very good second place for us, which the whole team can be proud of. Congratulations to all the other participants and especially to @ecurieaix for their 1st place in the electric category, @chalmersformula for their victory in the driverless cup and also @highspeed_karlsruhe for their win in the last combustion event of FSG.

Thanks to @formulastudentgermany for organizing the event and thanks to all our sponsors for their support, without which we could not have achieved these successes.

The new team will start to design a new prototype very soon with which we will try to improve our result again next year.

Our third event of the season, Formula Student East 🇭🇺, which took place at the Hungaroring, started with a successful technical scrutineering. The static disciplines were also successful, especially for our autonomous team. We reached the finals in Cost and Manufacturing as well as in Engineering Design. However, during the first dynamic disciplines, we unfortunately encountered technical problems. Not all motors were powered correctly but the team was able to adjust some of the problems on the same day and we were still able to compete in the autonomous disciplines and achieve good results in DV Autocross and DV Skidpad. On the last day, the longest dynamic disciplines were on the agenda, in the electric but also in the autonomous competition. The electric team was able to successfully complete the Endurance event, even if not quite with the desired performance. The efficiency prize, for the most efficient car during the Endurance Event, we still managed to win. In the autonomous competition, unfortunately, luck was not on our side and our system lacked information to follow the track correctly during Trackdrive.

Even though a number of problems occurred during the event, the team can be proud of the final results of a 5th place in the driverless and a 6th place in the electric competition.

Driverless:
🥇Engineering Design
🥉Cost and Manufacturing
Autocross: 4th place
Skidpad: 5th place
Electric:
🥇Efficiency

From the 22nd to the 28th of July we participated in Formula Student Austria 🇦🇹, which took place at the Red Bull ring in Spielberg. During the first few days we were once again fighting through mechanical, electrical and accumulator scrutineering and participating in the static events. We were very happy to be awarded first place in engineering design🥇and winning the “Best use of composite” award!
We managed to pass all the checks before the start of dynamics and participated in acceleration, skidpad and autocross. During the endurance event, we unfortunately ran into a technical problem which caused us to DNF in the second stint. However we quickly identified the problem and were able to fix it, preventing it from happening next time.
Thank you @fsaustria for organizing once again this great event, and congrats to all participating teams !

From the 1st to the 5th of July we participated in @fsswitzerland.

During the first few days, we went through mechanical, electrical and accumulator scrutineering. Simultaneously, we participated in the static disciplines of cost & manufacturing, business plan and engineering design. On the second to last day, we passed all the requirements and were finally allowed to participate in the dynamic disciplines. Scrutineering was a great opportunity to learn and gain new experience that will definitely have us more prepared for upcoming events.

Despite missing the Acceleration event due to problems we had to fix during scrutineering, we were all still extremely motivated and ready for the Skidpad, Autocross and Endurance events. This motivation and our hard work paid off, as we won all the dynamic events that we participated in. Combined with top places in static disciplines we achieved the overall 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 at formula student Switzerland.

Huge thanks to all the teams and organizers at @fsswitzerland, it was truly an amazing event to kick off the competition season. Congratulations to all the other teams and of course congrats @bernracingteam and @fastforrestdeggendorf for your well deserved podium places.

FSCH results:
🥇Overall
🥇Endurance
🥇Autocross

We are now looking forward to the next Event on our calendar: Formula Student Austria starting 22nd of July.

Stay tuned !
