Team Description
HAWKS Racing was founded in 2003 and participates in various Formula Student events since 2004.
This year we are designing and building our fifth high voltage electrical driven race car, the H21.
Currently, we are about 50 students from different specialties, working on the project in interdisciplinary groups.
We are looking forward to an awesome season and the upcoming FS-Events in 2026!

HAWKS Racing's 19th racecar, NOVA, is finally ready to show you how she performs on track! After making the switch to electric in 2021, it's now our third year of driving electric. This year, for the first time in HAWKS history, we will be competing autonomously at an event. In addition to the autonomous system, simulation and validation were also important to us this season in order to get the best out of our car.
Engineering Design Priorities:

Last year we proved that electric cars don't have to be quiet. With our second electric vehicle "Nayra" we'll try to take it up a step and bring some more noise to the track. The eighteenth car built by HAWKS Racing inherits all of the history of the Team in true 69 spirit (even if the car number says something different). With a revised drive train concept and newly developed embedded systems we want to attack once again, even without a driver.
