F1 in Schools is an international STEM competition that invites students aged 9 to 19 to immerse themselves in a miniature racing competition, modeling a real F1 company, in which groups of 3 to 6 students must design and manufacture a miniature car from the official F1 model block using CAD/CAM design tools.

It's not just a race; it reproduces the professional challenges of Formula 1, from team creation to competition on the track. Students use technological resources to design, model, and test a prototype of an F1 car. They also need to consider marketing strategies, sponsorships, business plans, and social media strategies. The teams also need to develop a social project that can serve as a tiebreaker at the end of the competition.

Furthermore, it aims to help change perceptions of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics by creating a fun and stimulating learning environment for young people to develop an informed view about careers in engineering, Formula 1, science, marketing, and technology.
