'It's fun, stressful at times, but I'm loving it'
Students are building a formula racing car they hope will be able to compete at the Silverstone circuit.
A team from the University of Leicester is constructing the vehicle to take part in the Formula Student 2023 competition.
The university first entered the contest in 2013 but has yet to make a car able to complete a 3.6 mile (5.9km) lap of the Northamptonshire track.
It hopes that will change at the coming event in July.
Ben Jackson gets updated on how the car is progressing from Monica Peeris, team principal for University of Leicester racing, and some of the students who are building the car.
