Due to the competition being held virtually in 2021, the Site Pre-Registration Form is not needed this year. We will remove it from the Bonus and Penalty Point Sheet and from the Documents for Students.
The updated Bonus and Penalty Points can be found here, as well as under the "Students--Documents" tab on this website. If there are any discrepencies, you must notify us within 24 hours of this posting via a Suppor Ticket.
Teams: please remember to label your uploaded documents correctly when submitting to the Upload system. These can be found in the Rules within their respective categories. Most submissions will follow this format: Carnumber_Schoolname_Document Name_docx/pdf/xlsx
If these are not correct, teams will have their submissions returned and asked to upload correctly.

As the due date for ESF-2 bonus points is approaching on February 7, we wanted to make sure you are able to take full advantage of the unique opportunity this year for your ESF-2s. As the 2021 event is "virtual", we encourage teams to use this year's ESF-2 as a way to explore new ideas, components and systems. For example, you might explore traction control, vehicle dynamics, updating PCBs, new accumulator ideas, and improvements to AMS such as state of charge estimation, range prediction etc. We also encourage you to consider implementing telemetry using the McLaren Atlas software to support your vehicle. Our review team will provide feedback and guidance on these "virtual innovation" ideas which can help you in your 2022 vehicle development plans.
If you will be reusing your 2020 ESF-2 for 2021, please do the following:
If you do not have access to the Google Doc from 2020, please send me an email with the person's name and email address who needs to be granted access.
