I remember last year hearing that after Brazil a team was already set up to start the 2003 design! After France all resources at Ferrari where transferred to the F-2003! Methinks this will be one special Ferrari!!!

The awesome design will be the real one - it was last year. As has been noted often recently, Ferrari could probably use the F2002 all year and not feel threatened. Even if the new car is a step too far and proves unreliable or unpredictable they can always revert to (probably) the best F1 car ever!
The waiting is killing - sheer torture. I can't wait to see it, and see the faces of Head and Newey when they realise that they haven't done nearly enough. Mind you, the McLaren is due for much later launch, so that might be more extreme still - McLaren certainly have the balls and the technical flair to do something spectacular. I have to add that I sincerely hope that I am wrong and that the FW25 is a serious challenger - but practically speaking Williams (or McLaren for that matter) will have done well to leap up to the level of the F2002 and Ferrari are unlikely to go backwards with the F2003. |

Gazzetta reported the feelings of Badoer's sneak preview of the car a couple of days ago. "Even faster than the F2002" is all he would say.
Oh, and 3 more sleeps

A few things I read over at Atlas:
-The v-angle is being reduced to 88 degrees. -The engine will weigh 90kg (seems to heavy). -The qualifying cars will have smaller radiators. -The exhaust will be longer and thinner. -The rearwing assembly will resemble that of the Lotus 79. But ive also heard the Lotus 80 and Arrows A2 thrown around. -Byrne expects a huge jump in performance. "There will be a bigger difference on the cars from 2002 to 2003 than from 2001 to 2002."

hang on, JonesF1, are smaller radiators allowed, for "qualifying cars"? I thought the FIA said something along the lines of "the car you qualify in is practically the car you race in."
Im not correcting you, i just want to know |

Thats a question I cant answer. Newey said this would happen but I dont see what the big deal is. There have always been differences between qual and race setups. Remember turbo teams upping the boost during the 80s? Something insignifigant like radiators should be fine.

Well, so we can expect another two red cars in the top...
...and Sauber having the 2002 engines... ...2 Saubers in the top six. |

Well nothing's impossible - but I'd consider an upset from a major manufacturer team much more likely. I don't think Sauber have got the strength and depth to produce a race winning car, even if they have got a top three engine with reliability to go wth it. Renault got the better of them with a considerable engine power defecit - so as soon as they start upping their rev limit they will be a serious threat to the podium. And Toyota have got monjey coming out of their ears with a good progressive attitude to go with it. Sauber vs BAR on the Bridgestones will be an interesting battle - great drivers all four of them and a solid, different, team on one side against a team under a lot of pressure with a lot to prove on the other.
How did this get into the F2003 thread!? |

 Because, there will be no surprises. Ferrari's still the best team and the best car. |
