Green Power International Finals - Bishop Luffa Team Update

On Sunday, 13th October, the Bishop Luffa Green Power F24 Team rose early to compete in the Green Power International Finals at the famous Goodwood Motor Circuit.

The morning began smoothly, with the team setting up their paddock like a well-oiled machine. Impressively, our car was used as an exemplar during the scrutineering process. After a quick fix of a loose wing mirror, the team headed out for practice laps, ensuring everything was in working order.  In Race 1, the team set the car's gear ratio to 5.2:1, which helped extend the battery life—critical for the 1.5-hour endurance race. We finished in 17th place out of 46 entries in our category.

Between races, the team engineers made a minor adjustment to the ratio, setting it to 5:1 to improve speed without sacrificing battery duration. In Race 2, the car steadily moved up the field, climbing the grid to an impressive 11th position. Unfortunately, a red flag paused the race for 25 minutes, cutting short our momentum.

Despite the setback, it was a fantastic day for the team, and we are already preparing for the next season.
