The team will be on hand with the impressive full-scale model car to answer questions, talk through where they are in the build of this supersonic car, problems they have incurred and plans for the future. 

In addition to this, exclusively for all Formula Student competitors, James Painter, Senior Engineer of the Bloodhound project and former Formula Student competitor will be speaking on the Business Networking Day, Friday 13 July at 10.30am in the pavilion.
