He did not have better way than to take leave of the Formula 1 that with one pole and one victory. We speak of the Ferrari F2002, considered by many like the best machine not only of all the history of the rampante cavallino, but also between the other cars. In its last GP, it demonstrated that he continues most reliable and being balanced of all the present bolides. For Barcelona the debut of the F2003 GA is expected, of which they suppose is superior, and of which also the main people in charge of McLaren Mercedes and Williams BMW, Rum Dennis and the old Frank, respectively, declared that the new Ferrari could get to be reckless.

McLaren gained two of four disputed GP this season

Following with these equipment, McLaren thus demonstrated that their hybrid chassis MP/4 17D is superior to Williams FW25, to the presentation of the new chassis 18A, will be posponed for the Great Prize of Canada approximately.
On the other hand, Williams obtained several improvements after his intense development, although it is evident that the distance separates that them of Ferrari is similar to the one of the previous year. Task lasts wait for to Mario Theisen and Gavin Fisher to him, to manage to perfectly assemble the chassis along with superpowerful BMW P83.

Williams showed progresses in the GP of past San Marino

Of all ways, these three marks have demonstrated that they are those that continue dominating the category, and that the others, at least at the moment, will have to distribute the rest.
And so respecta to the other teams, apparently almost all, excepting to Minardi, are in a similar level, being that which, in each great prize, one or two of them manages to approach the leaders for soon to the following competition changing the rolls.

Renault not yet unfolded its real potential with Alonso and Trulli

Renault seems to be the one that is nearer the leaders, and surely when surpassing half of the season, can get to bring to light the true force from the single-seater created by Mike Gascoine. We do not forget that Renault and Benetton in the past already they have prevailed each by itself, and together in 1995 with a young person and promising Michael Schumacher.
Toyota represents, along with escudería French, another threat for the great ones, although its real growth would begin to notice definitively just for the next year, instance in which Gustav Brunner will be able to be able to unfold all their I devise and experience to already developed to chassis and motor.
Sauber maintains its level but apparently it passes for a moment of transition and stagnation; with the game of Sergio Rinland for two years, I have been reading Ress does not find the balance and right rapidity so that the car can work to plenary session being useful kindness the 051 of Ferrari to the maximum.

BAR follows without being able to make specific podio with Villeneuve and Button

BAR and Jaguar are in similar situations, both seem to have given in the key after a great reconstruction in their rows. As much Geoff Willis for first as Horseradish tree Agathangelou for the square of the feline, has created quick and stable bodies, that impelled by great motorists as Honda and Ford try to return to past glories.
New Jordan EJ12 constructed by Eghbal Hamidy seems to be superior to its predecessor, but the certain thing is that it has several problems of adaptation to the circuits with closed curves, as it were seen in San Marino, adding in addition that has not received great aid of its impellers, since they exploded in his two last presentations.

The Justin novice Wilson demonstrated that he is a quick and consistent pilot

In the end, always in the end, although he would be very pleasant that this can be reverted, is the set of the Stoddart Australian. There is not nothing no to criticize to him to the chassis invented by Loic Bigois, like either to the motor, but the certain thing is that while continues of that form they will follow like until now. As Jean Alesi declared sometimes on the Prost Peugeot, which piloted in the 2000, “is nothing no bad in the car, only that is not sufficiently good like not even fighting in the middle of the squad…”
As far as the pilots of each escudería, sincerely not much more that to say of them. Each equipment counts on established figures, some that look for the indicated moment to excel, and others with a talent and a great future with exploding. Denles the machines and they will do the work.

Jordan in spite of counting on motors inferiors, already gained a GP

In order to conclude, I do not believe that this reality can get to modify at the moment, but what if it is evident, it is that, from the form in which comes appearing the facts, as much as for the end of the year, and especially for the next season, at least five escuderías will be able to dispute to races and the other rest, except Minardi, to obtain some that another point.
In addition, it would want to make a explanation for our readers, with respect to the motors Ford Cosworth. The CR5 that Jaguar uses is a model totally new and different from their predecessor. The CR3 that it impels to Minardi is that one with which Jaguar began the season the past season. And the RS1 of Jordan, is the CR4 that received at that time the square of Niki Lauda in half of the championship of the 2002.
