Our past, present and future
From the Attic to the Track
The journey of the VallRacing Team (VRT) is not just the story of building a car; it is the story of a pursuit of technical excellence and resilience in the face of adversity.
2020 – 2021: The Restart and the “Office” Under the Stairs
After previous attempts that never fully materialised, a decisive turning point came in 2020 2020. Under the leadership of our founder, Iza Martínez, the team was completely reorganised from scratch with a renewed strategy. In 20212021, with barely 20 members, we began shaping our identity under humble conditions: our first operational base was a small attic space under the university stairs.
There, surrounded by drawings and tools, we didn’t just start designing a car—we began building a team with a completely different mindset.
2023: The Value of Learning
After two years of intense work, we marked 2023 as our debut season. However, the reality of competition put us to the test: limited budget and time prevented us from completing the car on schedule.
What could have been a breaking point instead became our greatest lesson. Rather than giving up, that setback gave us the technical maturity and strength needed to redefine our processes.
2024: Pioneers in Castilla y León
The accumulated effort finally came to life in 2024 with the birth of the VRT24, our first fully built single-seater. With its completion, the VallRacing Team made history by becoming the first team from Castilla y León to compete in Formula Student..
2025: El Valor del Aprendizaje
El camino continuó en 2025 con la llegada del VRT25, un monoplaza que representó un importante salto cualitativo para el equipo. Fruto de la experiencia acumulada durante las temporadas anteriores, el vehículo incorporó mejoras en diseño, fabricación y rendimiento, permitiendo al VallRacing Team consolidar su presencia en las competiciones de Formula Student y demostrar la madurez alcanzada por el proyecto.
2026: No hay dos sin tres
En 2026 presentamos el VRT26, el reflejo de una estructura cada vez más sólida y experimentada. Este monoplaza supone un nuevo paso adelante en nuestra apuesta por la innovación y la excelencia técnica, reafirmando el compromiso del VallRacing Team con la formación práctica, el desarrollo tecnológico y la representación de la Universidad de Valladolid en el panorama internacional de Formula Student.
Our Essence
Today, VRT is much more than a group of students; it is an engineering laboratory where motivation and knowledge are our only reward.
We are proof that, with vision and hard work, it is possible to go from a university attic to international racing circuits.
