Team Description

Poliba Corse is made of a group of students with the same passion in the automotive industry. We understand that any academic teaching would be sterile without a practical approach. This is the idea behind the adventure started back in 2006 by some guys of the Polytechnic of Bari. Poliba Corse can proudly count on more than 50 members, growing further in the academic years, and with satisfactions and defeats we kept this dream alive. As we know, the skills required are different and related to all the engineering fields, with only one purpose: Design and manufacturing of a vehicle, year after year, more and more efficient. The word "static" certainly does not belong to the vocabulary of the team: the challenge would otherwise be lost in departure. That's why Poliba Corse is synonymous of dynamism.

Info
We are Poliba Corse, the Formula Student team from the Polytechnic of Bari. We believe in the strength of our history and in the force of southern Italy, thus we’ve worked with our sponsors since 2006 to enhance our territory resources. Our mission is to pass on experience to student members, which is why the team is constantly evolving. Hundreds of meetings and hours of work made possible our rebranding and the construction of the PC7-Finale, the latest Poliba Corse car. See you on track!

Info
We are Poliba Corse, the Formula Student team of the Polytechnic University of Bari, Italy. Since 2006, we have designed and built one-seater cars to compete for FSAE events all over Europe. Year after year, we always look for new technical solutions, facing budget and rules limitations. The introduction of the hybrid carbon-fibre/steel chassis was one of the latest upgrades. After overcoming many difficulties, we finally bounce back in this season. We look forward to meeting you in Hockenheim!

We are a group of students moved by the same fiery passion and we understand that any teaching would be sterile if not been fulfilled. This is the idea behind the adventure started back in 2006 in Bari PT. The skills required, are very different and apply to all fields of engineering, with only one purpose: the construction of a vehicle, year after year, more efficient. The word "static" certainly does not belong to the vocabulary of the team: the challenge would otherwise be lost in departure.

Info
We are a group of students moved by the same fiery passion and we understand that any teaching would besterile if he had not been fulfilled. This is the idea behind the adventure started back in 2006 by some guys of the Polytechnic of Bari. Coming aware of the Formula SAE, they decided to encountering the same. Thus was born the Poliba Corse. In the coming years, the team has been able to count on the support of fifteen members, growing further in the academic year just past, and with satisfactions and defeats we kept this dream alive. The skills required, as we understand, are very different and apply to all fields of engineering, with only one purpose: the construction of a vehicle, year after year, more and more efficient. The word "static" certainly does not belong to the vocabulary of the team: the challenge would otherwise be lost in departure. That's why the project PolibaCorse is synonymous of dynamism: the evolution is the fundamental step to make it better.

Car #36
Info
Poliba Corse, team of the Politecnico di Bari (a University in the south of Italy), presents for the first time its car at the FSG 2008. In 2006 Poliba Corse participated at the Formula SAE Italy in Class 3, presenting the design of the car only. In that competition the team wins the third place.Since this is the first experience with a real prototype in a Formula Student competition, the team, first of all, chooses simple and feasible technical solutions without forgetting however other important objects like: car performances, in term of engine power supply, handling and brake; ergonomics; easy maintenance; the using of fine quality components; aesthetic appeal. The team thanks its main partners for the contribute to the success of the project: Provincia di Bari; Comune di Bari; Pennelli Veicoli Speciali; Bridgestone; TAF Pneumatici; OMP; INA FAG; Tarox; EFI Technology; Magneti Marelli; Allegri.
