1. INTRODUCTION
Formula Student Hungary is part of the Formula SAE Competition Series and open to entries with both conventional
and electric powertrains.
This document contains the event specific rules for the Formula Student Hungary Competition.
1.1 Formula Student Hungary Objective and
Regulations
The Formula Student Hungary competition embodies the same objectives as The Formula SAE ® Series (see 2014
FSAE Rules A1.1) but it also allows the development of alternatively fuelled vehicles.
Formula Student Hungary will allow vehicles built to the FSAE rules to compete directly against those built to what
were previously called the Formula Student Class 1A rules (for alternatively fuelled vehicles), with the exception, that
Formula Student Hungary will only accept electric powered alternative vehicles. Any vehicle which is solely powered
by Petrol (Gasoline) or E-85 must be manufactured to comply exactly with the FSAE regulations.
Vehicles built using electric powertrains (not solely Petrol or E-85) must also comply exactly with the FSAE rules
except for the specific regulations as identified in this document.
NOTE: there are some regulations in this rule book that will be applied to all vehicles, eg. sustainability and fuel
economy/CO2 production.
An overview of the main regulation differences for those vehicles using electric powertrains is as follows:
For electric powertrain vehicles will compete directly against all conventional combustion engine vehicles.
„„ During the endurance event the fuel economy of all vehicles will be measured in terms of the production of
CO2 measured in kg. The quantity of CO2 released to the atmosphere by the consumption of each allowable
fuel will be specified in the rules and is intended to represent the EU average number for the type of fuel under
consideration.
„„ In addition to the cost event, a sustainability section will be added that will evaluate the embedded CO2 and
energy in the vehicle powertrain of all vehicles.
„„ Any combustion engine must use a 4 stroke cycle engine with a maximum capacity of 610cc.
„„ Allowable Power Sources - The allowable forms of power are specified as Petrol, E85, or Electric and no combinations of these to form a hybrid.
„„ There are significant additional regulations describing and relating to the powertrain including the requirements for drive-by-wire systems and HV electrical systems. For those teams that choose an electric vehicle
solution, the regulations will wherever possible enable them to compete in Formula Student UK and Formula
Student Electric.

8. TECHNICAL INSPECTION
8.1 Inspection & Testing Requirement
Technical Inspectors will mark or seal various different approved parts (i.e. insulation monitoring device, accumulator containers, energy meter, tires, rims, restrictor, exhaust etc.). The car can be disqualified from any dynamic event
by using unmarked parts or substituting marked parts. Parts with broken seals are equivalent to being unmarked.
Broken seals can only be replaced by a scrutineer.
8.1.1 INSPECTION OF EV
The Technical Inspection will be divided in an electrical inspection part 1 an electrical ispection part 2 and a mechanical inspection. The electrical inspection part 1 must be the first inspection, and will be held in the pits. The
electrical inspection part 2 must be the second inspection. This will be held at the motor test area and will declare
the car as electrically safe.
Before passing E-Scrutineering the car may only be moved around on the event site, if both detachable keys of the
Master Switches have been removed. After passing E-Scrutineering the car can be presented for the normal mechanical scrutineering.
8.1.2. EQUIPMENT FOR EV INSPECTION
For the electric part of the technical inspection each team must present the following equipment:
„„ accumulator charger to be used during the event
„„ all accumulator containers to be used during the event
„„ data sheets for all used parts in the electrical system
„„ copy of the ESF
„„ copy of the FMEA
„„ accumulator Container Hand Cart, if needed
„„ tools as listed in Formula SAE® 2014 Rule EV8.5
8.2 CAR WEIGHING
All cars will be weighed prior to Engineering Design Judging. All cars are to be weighed in ready to race condition.
All fluids and coolant must be in the car. This weight will be the car’s Official Technical Inspection weight. There will
be a penalty if the car weight changes during Dynamic Competition. The allowable weight tolerance is ± 5.0 kg. In
the case of overweight or underweight in comparison to the Technical Inspection weight, the team will be penalized
-20 (twenty) points for each kg (or portion of a kg) of additional or missing weight. This point penalty will be deducted from the Engineering Design Event score. (Each 0.1 to 1.0 kg = -20 points)
Example:
„„ If the car is 5.3 kg underweight: 5.3 kg minus the 5.0 kg tolerance = 0.3 kg equals -20 Points
„„ If the car is 7.8 kg overweight: 7.8 kg minus the 5.0 kg tolerance = 2.8 kg equals -60 Points
If the car weight changes due to replacement of broken parts, the car must be presented for tech inspection and
then re-weighed. It is the team’s responsibility to have the car re-weighed before entering a dynamic event after
changing parts.
17
8.3 Inspection Holes
To allow the verification of tubing wall thickness, 4.5 mm (0.18 inch) inspection holes must be drilled in a non-critical
location of both the Main Hoop and the Front Hoop. In addition, the Technical Inspectors may check the compliance
of other tubes that have minimum dimensions specified. This may be done by the use of ultra sonic testing or by
the drilling of additional inspection holes at the inspector’s request. Inspection holes must be located so that the
outside diameter can be measured ACROSS the inspection hole with a vernier caliper, i.e. there must be access for
the vernier caliper to the inspection hole and to the outside of the tube one hundred eighty degrees (180°) from the
inspection hole.
