As one of the only teams in the Formula Student, KaRaT has build a monocoque as it’s chassis since the first year.
The monocoque is completely manufactured by students, which takes a lot of time and effort. But the result pays off not only visually: Besides advantages regarding performance students get to work with state-of-the art materials and manufacturing processes.
Aerodynamics are also a critical parts of the cars overall performance as they add mechanical grip without (ideally) adding much weight. This allows for higher cornering speeds and faster lap times.
