UJI Motorsport is once again sponsored by AluNID, a company that has actively collaborated with the Universitat Iaume I Formula Student team over the last few seasons. The structure of the UFS04, the name given to this year's single-seater, will boast optimum torsional stiffness thanks to the aluminium honeycomb core provided by AluNID.

In order to achieve adequate torsional stiffness without excessive weight, the chassis department opted for a carbon fibre composite panel with an aluminium core. This avoids the use of a large number of carbon fibre layers, thus minimising the weight of the car. With this method, the team achieves a structure that improves the car's handling and higher speeds.

In addition, the competition sets minimum safety requirements to protect the driver in the event of an accident. These minimum rigidity and energy absorption requirements are achieved thanks to the material provided by AluNID.

According to Alejandro Rodríguez, head of the chassis department, "the safety of the driver is the most important thing". He is also grateful for the collaboration of the company from Jaén: "for UJI Motorsport it is a pleasure to count on the high quality of AluNID's honeycomb core".

Apart from the automotive sector, this honeycomb core is recognised in the industry for its extraordinary properties in terms of rigidity and lightness in the railway and aeronautical sectors, among others.
