TEAM N!TRO • THE PURSUIT OF ZERO FRICTION
The evolution of STEM Racing.
STEM Racing is a global movement where physics meets the speed of Formula 1. This platform serves as our Digital Twin—a centralized hub for technical evaluation and vision for 2026.
Originating from the F1 in Schools challenge, the circuit has evolved from a classroom project into a professional-grade engineering discipline. It mimics the real-world F1 lifecycle: from initial sketches to CFD and precision manufacturing.
Today, we leverage advanced aerospace-grade simulations and AI-driven generative design. Team N!TRO utilizes these tools to find millisecond advantages on the track.
Organization is the key to success. We don't just build cars; we build blueprints for excellence.
At Team N!TRO, we believe that organization is the key factor in achieving success. Our internal structure keeps us aligned from design through manufacturing.
Building on knowledge from previous F1 in Schools teams, we analyzed regulations and design theories to refine our approach through independent research.
Multi-disciplinary. Relentless focus.
Directs technical cohesion and physical manufacturing with micron-level precision.
Directs the project lifecycle, controlling timelines and resource allocation.
Lead for CAD modeling and CFD simulation. Focuses on drag reduction.
Architect of the N!TRO brand identity and all marketing collateral.
Responsible for high-end documentation and cross-functional support.
The bridge between engineering and industry, securing resources for development.
Sapphire.
Highly aerodynamic. Visually striking. Relentlessly minimalistic.
Our team follows the same process as Apple, highlighting each detail. Sapphire is the result of many iterations, each improving airflow and structural stability.
From Block to Blade.
We utilize high-density Polyurethane Foam for its superior strength-to-weight ratio.
Machined on a 3-axis CNC router, Sapphire is carved within a tolerance of ±0.05mm.
A micro-thin sealant is applied to prevent turbulence while maintaining the 50.0g minimum weight.
An ogive shape has a smooth, curved point that lets air flow around the car with less resistance. Our ogive nose spreads the air gently and keeps the airflow attached to the body for longer.
