CARS in sleek designs speeding down a racetrack had students from across the globe on the edge of their seats recently. It wasn’t a Formula One (F1) world championship that they were witnessing, but it offered just as much thrill, if not more, for the 280 competitors at the F1 in Schools World Finals 2020(21).

After months of preparation, the 43 teams from 18 countries came together virtually over five days early this month to prove their mettle in the global science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) challenge hosted in the United Kingdom.
