The Formula Student team of the Universitat Politècnica de València (FSUPV Team) continues to make history. During the 2020 / 2021 season it has been crowned as the best team in Europe and the third in the world ranking of Formula Student Combustion. The Valencian team, which is sponsored by Alonso Group, is in the top of the world ranking out of a total of 612 teams. A record ranking as a result of the continuous effort, the improvements made and the overcoming of these young students.

These values are shared with Alonso Group which, since last season, has provided logistical support to the FSUPV Team. Specifically, the holding company has provided them with a fully equipped and conditioned box with the same qualities as those of the professional teams. The box is moved to every race, where the vehicles developed by the UPV students are located.

The students also have land transport for the box and the team of young talents, thanks to the contribution of a vehicle from the fleet of Alonso Group‘s land transport division for travel throughout Europe. A perfect example of coordinated work and the development of synergies between the business and university fields with the aim of promoting young talent.

FSUPV Team

The Formula Student team at the Universitat Politècnica de València is made up of fifty students who design and build a professional single-seater car that subsequently competes in races in its category all over the world. It is made up of different students from several university disciplines such as aerodynamics, chassis, electronics, engine, design, communication… and, season after season, they show their progress all over the world.

The FSUPV Team has also launched another team that has been developed under the driverless mode. An autonomous driving system that also competes in Formula Student races. A commitment to automation and technological development that the Valencian team has successfully achieved.

Supporting excellence, leadership and new talent

Alonso holding company continues to support sporting initiatives that stand out for their excellence, leadership and innovation linked to young people with the aim of helping them to boost their educational, professional and personal development. An example is of the young Valencian racing team which, year after year, shows good examples of learning and evolution. This sponsorship is part of the Alonso Group’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) policy, which in recent years, has led it to support other sporting activities such as the youth categories of the Algeciras C.F. football team or Patacona C.F.

In addition, the holding company is involved in educational, environmental and cooperation actions, especially in those areas where it provides its activities. This is a clear demonstration of Alonso Group’s unequivocal commitment to society beyond its national and international business activities.
