On June 26th, we had the pleasure of welcoming Szilárd Bariska, team leader of the Arrabona Racing Team from Széchenyi István University, to our headquarters. During his visit, we officially signed our sponsorship agreement for the 2025 Formula Student season, marking the beginning of our collaboration as a Gold Tier Sponsor.
Who are they?
The Arrabona Racing Team (ART) is a dedicated and high-performing student racing team made up of young engineering students from Széchenyi István University, active in the Formula Student competition since 2014. This international engineering competition goes far beyond a simple race – it is a comprehensive technical and project management challenge where students work together to design, build, manage, and present a race car to an expert jury, supported by their university and professional industry partners.
In previous years, the team competed with internal combustion-powered cars. However, 2025 marks a major technological milestone: for the first time in their history, ART is entering the competition with a fully electric race car. This shift affects not only the powertrain but the entire vehicle architecture – from the chassis design and control systems to safety features.
How are we supporting them?
At BIBUS Kft., we place great value on innovation, technical education, and supporting emerging engineering talent. That’s why we’ve committed to backing the team not only financially, but also through engineering components essential to the car's development:
This partnership represents more than just project support – it’s a long-term investment in the engineers of the future.
Knowledge meets innovation
The Arrabona Racing Team’s next-generation electric vehicle won’t just make an impact on the Formula Student track – it stands as a living example of how academic knowledge and hands-on engineering experience come together in a university setting. From mechanical design and team logistics to sponsor relations and management, these students are gaining real-world skills in a complex, professional environment – and we are proud to support them in that journey.
We are honored to stand behind this ambitious and inspiring initiative as a Gold Tier Sponsor, and we wish the team every success in the 2025 Formula Student season!
