Built by students.Raced for real.
University of Wolverhampton Racing is the student-run team that doesn’t race in a student championship. We engineer, prepare and run cars in national motorsport — against professional teams, every weekend.
Not a university championship. The real thing.
Since 2015, UWR has put engineering students into mainstream motorsport — Formula Renault, Formula 3, the Morgan works team, Praga, Revolution and now Radical.
A professional driver takes the wheel. Everything else — the build, the setup, the data, the strategy, the pit stops and the 2am rebuilds — belongs to the students. It’s the closest thing to a job in a race team you can get while still at university.
