Scuderia Ferrari granted former Team Lotus engineer Peter Wright unparalleled access to the team principals and to Michael Schumacher’s 2000 championship-winning car, and the result is the most detailed, specific, and awe-inspiring analysis of a modern F1 car ever published. The principles behind the design of the car and engine are explained, often by the key people who are responsible for performing the work. Detailed descriptions of systems and components are accompanied by technical specifications, assembly drawings, functional details, and performance analysis. Lavishly illustrated with Ferraris own technical drawings, computer models, and photos, the book also features original cutaway paintings and drawings by Tony Matthews.
Candid interviews with Michael Schumacher, Jean Todt, Ross Brawn, Rory Byrne, Paolo Martinelli, and many others reveal the inner workings of the Scuderia as well as the philosophies and approaches each department head uses to lead his group. Brawn, Technical Director, has described the state in which the Ferrari team operates as being similar to a state of war. As you read this book, learning in extensive detail about every aspect of the car and the commitment and effort put forth by the Scuderia, you will develop the very strong impression that Brawn is not exaggerating.
