I would like to get into F1 or rallye, as a race engineer or chassis and powertrain engineer but I will see where Uni takes me.
This year, I will studying racing vehicle design, aerodynamics, chassis, powertrain, suspension, tyre dynamics, lap time simulation and racing engine design. Thermo Fluid Dynamics lots more to come.

It will be a busy 3 years I can assure you.
