F1 in Schools Challenge Day
Last week 15 Grade 5/6 students attended the F1 In Schools Challenge Day at the Tailrace Centre. We started our day by watching the High School teams race to get a better idea about what goes on. Around 10:00am the first few teams started scrutineering their cars before their first races. Each team fixed bits of their cars to fit the regulations and not get time penalties. At 11:00am the races started. Each team had 10 races across the day. There were 4 automatic races, 4 reflex races and the rest were knockout rounds.
It was a great privilege to be participating in the event and to be able to be around everyone there.
Our places were:
5th place - triple S
4th place - Chaos
3rd place - Road Snipers
2nd place - Schnell
State Champions - Ares.
It was a great day. Thankyou to all our sponsors and parents for continuing to support our F1 journey.
