STEM Racing

The STEM Challenge, geared towards students aged 12 -17 years.

Running in the UAE since 2009, the Formula 1® STEM Challenge is one of the biggest international STEAM competitions in the world, seeing teams of 3 to 6 students plan, research, design, analyse, manufacture and test a miniature 'F1® car' using CAD/CAM/CNC tools.

These cars are powered by CO2 compressed gas and race a 20-meters distance in just over a second. Teams compete within their schools, nationally and regionally for a chance to represent the UAE at the F1® in Schools World Finals and become World Champions. The Challenge inspires students to learn more about physics, aerodynamics, design, manufacture, branding, graphics, sponsorship, marketing, leadership, teamwork, media skills and financial strategy, and apply them in a practical, imaginative, competitive and exciting way.

HOW FAST IS YOUR REACTION TIME?

Is your reaction speed as fast as an F1 driver? Can you beat your friends and classmates? An important part of Racing Formula Ethara and F1® in Schools program is having a quick reaction time. During the racing, there's a 20-meter racetrack with special start and finish gate timing equipment. When each racer is ready, there's a countdown with 5 red lights. The racers need to press a button once the 5 lights go out and the timing gate says ‘Go’. If a racer presses too early, they will get a false start.

 

Why not test your own reaction time with our free reaction challenge below.

  • Once you're ready to being, click reset
  • Wait for the lights to go out
  • Press space bar as soon as ‘Go!’ appears and see how fast your reaction time is
