Yepp...i think so... 
1125 hrs : The car is beautiful, reported to have some similarities to the successful F2001
1130 hrs : The Marlboro sponsor sticker is much larger than that seen on the F2001 car being tested in preseason testing sessions. There are some pictures around on the net at this moment, but unsure if they are the real pics or just computer modified...

Well...here is the first pictures of the new F2002!
Should be the real thing...
The rear looks extremely sleak...and the side pod is extremely low when compared to the old car!
Livery doesn't look too appealing...but the car is a beatiful piece of art!

Yuck! The cheapens the famous Scarlet Red livery. I hate it. That looks, really, really cheap. 2002 hasn't been a good year for liveries, has it??? That truly is shocking. Hideous. Awful. Better stop now before I start with the expletives....

It's difficult to tell, but have they separated the lower front wishbone mounting point? (like Sauber). From this shot it looks like they haven't.
The front nose looks quite fat, but I think this is because the sidepods and rear are very sleak.
The paint scheme seems messy and tacky. It might be the lighting, but it seems to be a pretty horrible orange/white mix, with additional stickers everywhere. There are no tic tac stickers (which is disappointing  ).
Overall (IMO) it looks ugly, but then this is probably down to the fact that it is a current F1 car! However, it does look like it'll do the business. I expect it's Michael's year (again).

The excess white doesnt really go down well with my dinner, but hey, the rear IS very narrow! The rear looks radical enough, but i am a little disappointed not to see the "double kneel" which is highly expected and used on the Sauber and Mclaren.
1135 hrs : Ross Brawn speaking about the technical aspects of the new car.
1145 hrs : Dimensions of the new car is as follow:
4495 millimetres long, 1796 millimetres wide, and, 959 millimetres high.
1150 hrs : Michael is speaking to 600 guests in English and Italian. Translated quote : "It is my goal to win the championship as Ferrari is my family. I promise I will do everything I can to keep Ferrari number 1."
1200 hrs : The new engine, 051, is 2997cc V10 40 valves unit.

What the f*ck are you all on about?! - What's horrible about it? It's fantastic, for God's sakes! I really don't understand how many F1 fans are able to derive enjoyment from following the sport when all they care about is livery! And in any case, the livery's fine with me.
