en.wikipedia.org
Constructor : Ferrari
Designer(s) : Ross Brawn, Rory Byrne
Predecessor : F2001
Successor : F2003-GA
Technical specifications
Chassis : carbon-fibre monocoque
Suspension (front) : independent, pushrod-activated, torsion spring
Suspension (rear) : independent, pushrod-activated, torsion spring
Engine : Ferrari Tipo051/B/C V10 (90°) naturally aspirated
Total displacement : 2996.62 cc
Maximum power 614 kW (835 hp) at 17,800 rpm
Transmission: Ferrari 7-speed longitudinal automatic sequential
Fuel : Shell
Tyres : Bridgestone
Competition history
Notable entrants : Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro
Notable drivers : 1. Germany Michael Schumacher
2. Brazil Rubens Barrichello
Debut: 2002 Brazilian Grand Prix
The Ferrari F2002 was one of the most successful Formula One car designs of all time. Designed by Ross Brawn, Rory Byrne and Paolo Martinelli, it won fifteen Grands Prix, from a total of nineteen races in 2002 and 2003.
The car was much lighter than its predecessor, the F2001. Powered by a 3.0 litre V10 engine which had a very low centre of gravity, the F2002 had excellent handling. The new 051 engine was not the strongest engine of 2002, but it was lighter, more compact, very fuel efficient and very driveable. Bridgestone developed special tyres, suited specifically for the car. Aerodynamically, the Ferrari was well ahead of the contemporary Williams-BMW but perhaps a little down on power, and on a par with, or slightly ahead of the 2002 season's McLaren car.
Using the Pomeroy Index system, Motor Sport magazine recently determined that the F2002 is the fastest Formula One car of all time
