Herkules Racing Team: Your entry into the world of motorsport

Welcome to the Herkules Racing Team - your chance to become part of an international motorsport project! As one of 700 teams worldwide in Formula Student, we develop and build our own racing car and compete in competitions throughout Europe. Since 2019, we have been focusing on electric drives and sustainable technologies.

Our project work is divided into three areas: Organization, mechanics and electrical engineering. Whether you see your strengths in design or prefer the challenge of electronics - you will find your place with us. Non-technical tasks in the organization are also open to you.

What our project participants can expect

  • Vehicle development: From the chassis to the electronics - with us you will develop a complete vehicle from the ground up. You will be supported by state-of-the-art design and simulation software such as SolidWorks and Ansys. In spring, the test phase begins, in which you optimize the performance of your vehicle down to the last detail.
  • Project management: Learn how to plan and implement a large project efficiently. From budget planning to team coordination - you will gain valuable experience in project management and be supported by experienced team members.
  • Competition: Experience the thrill of international competitions! Compete with your team against the best universities in Europe and make contacts with companies such as VW, Mercedes-Benz or Porsche, who are regularly on site.

Develop and design your first component or assembly for our current vehicle. Learn the basics of design and present your results to the team.

Optimize existing components with the help of simulations and thus contribute to the improvement of our racing car. You record your results in the team wiki for future members.

Take responsibility and manage your own department. Coordinate a small team and ensure that all components work together perfectly.

Become part of our team!
