As many of you will be aware, the end of the @F1inSchoolsHQ 2023 World Finals in Singapore marks the final chapter of Eclipseโ€™s story, bringing our time as a team to a close. ๐Ÿ We decided to give the competition one final shot this season and we have no regrets. We won our third regional finals, and were crowned UK National Champions. At the biggest ever World Finals in Singapore we placed 6th overall, had the third-best engineered car in the world and received 2 award nominations. Although disappointed not to be on the podium, we are still proud of all of our achievements, and gained so many valuable experiences along the way and unforgettable memories. While it may not have been the ending we always dreamed of, these achievements fill us with immense pride. Our journey was about more than just winning; it was about leaving a legacy by promoting STEM and F1 in Schools and we are incredibly happy to be able to look back and see the impact we had on our community. ๐ŸŒ It will undoubtedly feel strange not having F1 in Schools as a daily part of our lives, but we are confident we will return in some capacity, most likely as competition judges. It has been an incredible journey and we appreciate all the support we have had to make it all possible. We cannot thank all of our partners enough, especially @BAESystemsplc who have been there from the very beginning as our platinum partner. Our last piece of advice to anyone considering being part of this competition, please do not hesitate - just do it! Dreams really do come true and you will gain life skills and memories that will be with you forever ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ’ญ Thank you once more, from Javier, Tom and Evie. Eclipse๐ŸŽ๏ธ

Day 5 of the @F1inSchoolsHQ 2023 World Finals: Really happy to have come away from our feedback sessions for all project elements with a smile. It was another fantastic day and although we didn't make it far in the knockout competition, we seeded 18th out of all teams and made it to the second round against tough competition. It was great to speak to both @aramco and Erina Wanzul during the competition about our experience of the event and sustainability. Thanks to everyone who visited our pit display during day 5 and we look forward to seeing how the awards ceremony goes this evening.
