[ad] In these long years of formula student, @zf_group has been an invaluable pillar of strength. Their commitment has been the backbone of our success, and we're truly grateful. Our recent meeting at FSG was a memorable moment, filled with shared ideas and exciting prospects. The thoughtful gifts and events, such as the incredible flight over Munich in a zeppelin they arranged, added an extra layer of joy to our journey. Looking forward, we're excited to keep innovating together, forging new paths towards an even brighter future. Thank you for being part of this incredible journey! 🏁💪 #ZF #GFR #FormulaStundent #Competition #OregonStateUniversity #DHBWRavensburg #engineering #design #team #racecar #WeAreGFR #GFRiends #ProudMoments #Teamwork #thankyou

Setting the stage for our European ride with the GFR23 at @formulastudenteast, hosted at the Hungaroring. Our journey kicked off smoothly, nailing inspections and hitting the track for practice laps. The first discipline skidpad proved to be a test of precision and power, clocking in at 4.922s and securing us a solid 10th position. 🏁💪 Acceleration, however, brought unforeseen challenges, that put a dent in our East competition plans.As storm clouds gathered over the event, we took a strategic call to depart ahead of schedule, putting all hands on deck to get the GFR23 ready for the big FSG event. While static events may not have taken center stage this time, our focus remains unswerving – driven by innovation, determination, and the pursuit of excellence. 🚗⚙️ #FSEast #FormulaStundent #Hungaroring #Competition #oregonstateuniversity #dhbwravensburg #engineering #design #team #WeAreGFR #GFRiends #ProudMoments #Teamwork

Reflecting on our incredible journey at @formulasaeitaly, the first European competition for our driverless car this year! We proudly finished 2nd place overall, a result of relentless dedication and hard work. 🏁 We nailed the Cost and Design events, securing another two fantastic 2nd places, showcasing our engineering finesse. In the Business Presentation, we archived the 4th place, showcasing our well-rounded approach. Our celebrations got even bigger when we won first place in the Autocross, where our car excelled in precision and speed! 🏎️🏅 While we encountered challenges in Acceleration, Skidpad, and Trackdrive, we faced them with grace and learned valuable lessons. 💪 Beyond the achievements, the journey was an absolute thrill! Working together on our driverless car and competing at FSItaly created bonds and memories that will last a lifetime. ❤️ A heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported us in this remarkable adventure. Stay tuned for more exciting updates as we continue to push the boundaries in the next competitions! #FSItaly #fsae #Competition #oregonstateuniversity #dhbwravensburg #engineering #design #team #WeAreGFR #GFRiends #ProudMoments #Teamwork #DriverlessCar

Introducing GFR '23 and a recap of FSAE Michigan! This year we designed an entirely new GFR car and through hundreds of work hours, we were able to complete it in time for FSAE Michigan! The team was able to get through all tech inspections quickly and efficiently, but unfortunately on Day 3 we encountered a mechanical failure during Acceleration. Due to this problem, we were unable to participate in skidpad and autocross. This was incredibly heartbreaking for the team, but it did not stop us from pouring all effort into fixing the issue. Through hardwork and resilience we were able to fix the issue and complete Endurance. We are so proud of what our car was able to achieve despite these difficulties! Competition season is not over and we are determined to grow from this turbulent experience. See you in Europe! Onward and Upward. GO GFR! #GFR #gfriend #fsae #fsaemichigan #michiganinternationalspeedway #fsg #fseast #formulastudentelectric #formulastudent #gogfr

After a successful round of Rules Quiz Days over the past few weeks, we were able to qualify for multiple competitions and have decided to attend five of them this year. Here’s our race calendar for 2023! Our Season will start off with GFR23 at Michigan International Speedway in the USA. In Europe, GFR22red will start driving on it's own (as driverless) at Riccardo Paletti di Varano ‘de Melegari in Italy. A few weeks later, GFR23 will visit Europe starting with the Hungaroring near Mogyoród in Hungary. After that, GFR22red will be on the road heading to Spain to Circuit de Barcelona Catalunya. There it will be put to the test in driverless mode again. GFR23 will end our season at the biggest and most desirable competition at Hockenheimring in Germany. We are proud to be able to present our two racecars at so many competitions this year and are hyped to see all the other teams in summer again. #FormulaStudent #FSAE #GFR #DHBWRavensburg #OregonState #racecar #weAreGFR #GFRiends #design #engineering #racetrack #StrongerTogether #formulastudent #formulastudentgermany #electric #manufacturing
