Propelling to Greatness
2nd place at the Aramco F1 in Schools 2023 World Finals
What is F1 in Schools?
F1 in Schools is one of the largest STEM competitions for students around the world aged from 9 - 19.
Students develop teams and employ CAD/CAM skills to design and manufacture miniature F1 cars, which utilise a CO2 canister to propel itself down a 20m track.
Additionally, teams will produce a trade display to present the team at the competitions, social medias, a website, project management, graphic designs, portfolios, collaborations with businesses, and raise funds through sponsorship for any costs in the competition.
Teams will first start competing in regional competitions, moving onto states, nationals, and finally world finals competitions.

Team History
Team Propulsion was created in 2022, competing our first competition under the name "Propulsion" at the 2022 Australian National Finals. Though many members of our teams have participated in the competition since back in 2019, under our past team known as "Team Dextro."
We recently placed second in the 2022 Australia National Finals, which has placed us in a position to represent Australia in the 2023 World Finals competition in Singapore.
