The BGR team was founded in 2006 and by 2011 participated it's first competition in the FSA Italy. Since then, each year the team builds a new and completely original vehicle according to each competition handbooks.
In our first years, the team has focused mainly on combustion vehicles, and in the 2015 FSA the team reached to 8th place. In that same year, we have developed our first electric car (which didn't race then) and by 2016 it was fully competitive as well.
The team's last combustion car was built in 2017, and since then the group focus on electric vehicles, aiming to reach autonomous control in the near future.
