The "Timed Race" that followed allowed the teams to rank their performances based on a single lap without direct competition.
In the "Endurance Race" that took place in the afternoon, the team had to make the formula car run 22 laps around the 0.9-kilometer track to test the stability and durability of the car and the driver.

FST focuses on "helping the team" to build bridges between enterprises, schools and students
Formula Student Taiwan (FST) said that the biggest goal of this year's league will be to focus on "helping the teams" and to implement it in three major directions: "advisory system", "workshop" and "expanded publicity". In past competitions, the major teams faced challenges and difficulties without fear of difficulties and insisted on breaking through, so this year's FST slogan is "Drive Through the Limit". In the future, FST will build bridges for enterprises, schools and students to continue to expand the scale and professionalism of the competition.
