Polytech North Capital Motorsport (Polytech NCM) continues active preparations for the new season of international student competitions Formula Student 2025. The design stage is complete – the team has moved on to the production of a new racing car.
Polytech NCM remains one of the leading student teams in Russia: in 2024, it took 1st place in the design defense, 2nd place in the cost report and 3rd place in the business presentation at the Formula Student Russia stage, receiving the title of the best team in static disciplines.
The 2025 season is marked by an important event — the team officially joined the structure of the Institute of Power Engineering of SPbPU. This cooperation opens up new horizons: from participation in specialized seminars to expanded financial, media and organizational support. The partnership strengthens the team’s ties with the university and facilitates the integration of the project into the professional scientific and expert community.
At the moment, the team has six engineering departments, as well as a public relations department: the internal combustion engine department, the frame department, the composite materials department, the electronics and embedded systems department, the suspension department, the aerodynamics department, and the PR and management department. You can get into each sector of the team by responding to recruitment announcements. This is how the team’s management attracts active students who have decided to do something unique and useful for their future profession.
The key aspect of any education is practice. In our team, all theoretical knowledge is tested in real conditions: both within our team and at competitions, says team captain Kirill Anikeev.
In April, Polytech NCM took part in the largest Russian exhibition dedicated to motorsport and tuning — Motorsport Expo 2025 in the Patriot Exhibition Center. The team’s stand presented the Quattro and SOL projects. The exhibition turned out to be productive for NCM — such events always help establish contacts with the professional community of like-minded people. The exhibition guests also showed interest in the activities of young engineers and were able to ask their questions directly.
Over the next few months, Polytech NCM will focus on preparing the car for competition: testing the telemetry system, welding the space frame, producing composite elements and, finally, final assembly of the new Cinque car.
