Finally, after a few months of trying, a few weeks ago we managed to catch up with the 2017 Nova Racing team at the MotoE championship in Assen, The team were joint winners of the IET ARTS TPN MotoE prize of technical excellence during the 2017 season, along with Bath University Zero team.Floris Straver the 2017 team manager commented:
"We are so pleased that the hard work of Nova Electric Racing Team 08 (2017) resulted in the championship win, and now also is being awarded by the IET through the price for Technical Excellence. We've learnt so much throughout the season, every race weekend was unique and helped us gather valuable data.
It was great for us as students to be part of such a new and exciting project, where we could put our engineering knowledge to practice and make great improvements in performance.
We hope future teams can further build upon this and will book great results!"
Team Twente Superbike scooped up the points at the Assen races and are going from strength to strength in this their first season of racing, great that they won on their home turf.
With Assen out of the way, we now move onto the Series finale at Anglesey in a week's time.
