The drivers in particular could hardly wait to get on track.

But all racing cars first had to pass the Scrutineering and prove their suitability for the race track.

The fluid leakage and roll-over potential of the vehicles was tested using a tilting platform.

During the brake test the driver had to bring all four wheels simultanously to a stop.

The electric cars, in addition, had to pass a rain test with the high-voltage system in active state.

Meanwhile, there was still room for improvement.

The different disciplines had to be passed within a tight time-schedule, so the members used every minute to get a rest.

After a successful scrutineering, the vehicles had to prove their maximum cornering capability at the Skid respectively Wet pad.

There was hardly anyone who had expected that rainy weather in mid-August.

This year the irrigation system actually was superfluous.

Under more friendly conditions the teams headed for the Acceleration event on Saturday.

On the start-finish line of the Hockenheimring, the cars had to accelerate from a standing start.

Meanwhile, once again many representatives of the international organisations met at the “Worldwide Formula Student Officials Meeting”. On the sideline of the German event they shared knowledge and experiences.

While the drivers demonstrated the race ability of their cars on track, many enthusiastic spectators shared the excitement.

Within the Formula Student Driverless even autonomous cars competed on the track. This year for the first time, this third competition celebrated its premiere at the German event.

The results followed later on.

Whether the team Rennstall Esslingen, winner of the Formula Student Combustion, …

… or AMZ Racing, the winners of Formula Student Driverless; at the end everyone was celebrating.

And looked forward to next year when they all meet up again in 2018.
