The student racing team GET racing Dortmund e.V. from TU Dortmund presented its new race car – the FS225 – at the official rollout at the end of May. And it’s impressive: With consistent lightweight construction, a powerful electric drivetrain, and an aerodynamically optimized design, the team will compete in several international events. Once again, the new FS225 features an electric drive system, but the team has managed to further increase performance compared to last year.

For 20 years, TU Dortmund students have been designing vehicles for Formula Student, one of the world's largest student engineering competitions. This year, the team is again scheduled to participate in Formula Student Germany in Hockenheim (August 18–24, 2025).

As a long-standing main sponsor, Murtfeldt is not only a financial supporter but also an active technology partner. In close collaboration with the GET Racing Team, we were able to contribute crucial components in several key areas:

• Aerodynamics from Carbon:
  Our subsidiary Crosslink produced high-precision carbon parts, including the impressive front spoiler – a central element of the aerodynamic concept.
  
• 3D-Printed Components for Autonomous Driving:
  Our additive manufacturing facility in Kusterdingen developed, among other things, the camera housing for the autonomous driving system.
  
• Design Meets Engineering
  Our design team also left its mark: our graphic designer helped shape the vehicle’s visual identity and integrated elements of our new corporate design.
  

More Than Sponsorship – A True Partnership

Our collaboration with GET racing is not a traditional sponsorship arrangement, but rather a mutual learning experience on equal footing. The students demonstrate what’s possible when passion meets engineering. They develop solutions that don’t come from textbooks, but directly from the workshop, digital design – and real life.
