SPONSORSHIP BROCHURE
2018 - 2019"There are really two innovative forms
of motorsport left, Formula One and
Formula Student."
-Ross BrawnFORMULA STUDENT
The Lausanne Racing Team will take part in Formula Student competitions from summer
2019, competing in the “electric vehicle” category.
Formula Student race cars are open-wheeled single-seater prototypes, which are designed,
built and tested by students only. Teams from everywhere around the world get to represent
their university in week-long engineering venues in a number of different countries in
Europe, in the United States, and in India. The cars are judged according to their performance
on track, but also to the originality of their design, their reliability, and the good financial
and production management performed by their student designers over the whole project.
Those competitions are strictly monitored by engineers and experts from the automotive
sector, under the supervision of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, and supported by
the entire automobile industry and some of its leading names, such as Ross Brawn (former
Mercedes AMG Formula 1 team director).
Those competitions are the biggest engineering student competitions in the world. Beyond
the scope of the automotive sector, they give students the opportunity to work on a very
ambitious project. Building a car in one year is a technical, managerial and financial feat,
that requires a tremendous amount of work and allows to build significant knowledge and
skills in a short period of time. They are highly competitive events: renown universities
intend to build the best race car in an exhibit of innovation, technology, and professionalism.
Formula Student GermanyTHE LAUSANNE RACING TEAM Reflecting on the ambition and motivation of many students, the Lausanne Racing Team was founded in November 2017 at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), and became a school-recognized association in November 2018. 64 MEMBERS: - Mostly coming from Mechanical Engineering and Micro-engineering departments of EPFL - Highly motivated, and most of them are fairly pleasant people - Divided in five technical teams : Chassis, Powertrain, Aerodynamics, Vehicle Dynamics, Electronics SUPPORT: - Recognized and supported by the school (manufacturing workshops, partial financial support, administration) - Sponsoring (financial and communication support) MOTIVATION: - Compete in a minimum of 3 competitions every year - Win in the next three years
CODE NAME: LRT-1
For a first appearance in the Formula Student world, the major design guideline was to build
a reliable car, that would be able to compete from the very first year, and that would allow the
team to evolve on a solid base and achieve some great results in the years to come. Here are
some general technical specifications of our car.
80 kW electric propulsion
(approx. 110 hp)
Double wishbone and Top speed: 110km/h
pushrod suspension
Aerodynamic package generating
650N of downforce at 20m/s
Linen fiber bodywork
Steel tubular chassisLAUSANNE RACING TEAM AUDIENCE & EVENTS
Our goal is to create a win-win relationship between your company and our association. Being
a partner of the Lausanne Racing Team will be the opportunity to communicate differently
with the students, professors and members of the EPFL world. Indeed, we have a privileged
access to this network with which we communicate through our various social networks. With
our help and our communication tools your company could gain significant visibility on the
UNIL-EPFL campus.

The budget of the project for the 2019 season is shown on the gauge below. Major costs are
incurred by the purchase of car parts, but they also include manufacturing and administrative
costs. We estimate that CHF112’000 are necessary to build the car. The last CHF45’000 will
allow us to travel and participate to 3 competitions next summer.
