The project is made up of about 70 students of all ages, genders and courses of study, such as Engineering, but also Economics and Politic sciences. They are all united by the passion for motorsport and aim to create a racing prototype.
Each part of the project is supported by the teaching staff of the university, as team advisors. Each department refers to Francesco Sonego, team leader of this project and to Massimiliano Ceppi, technical director.
In order to facilitate and organize the work in a good way, the team is divided into six departments, each of which is coordinated by a manager:
- Enea Gherdol – Frame and structure
- Alessandro Mestriner – ePowertrain
- Fabio Zanchetta – Electronics
- Marco Petito – Aerodynamics
