The comments are that the technical staff of the BAR was inspired clearly by F2002 to draw his new model.

The car will "radically be different", in agreement with sources in the team. The team was restructured and he will have a pilot of tests with some "pedigree", Takuma Sato. It was gotten to think even in name change, the one that finished not happening. "The name is just part of an identity that should be created. We cannot just adopt a name like Lotus or BRM, if we are not nor Lotus, nor BRM. We have to create our own image close to the public", spoke to Richards. "That is the last thing in that we are thinking now. Our objective is to rebuild the team. We will introduce in 2003 a new visual identity to mark a new beginning. But the changes will have little impact in the general look of the team and of the car."

Geoff Willis, that came from Williams, signs the project of "white Ferrari". The car will be presented on January 14 in Barcelona. Jacques Villeneuve and Jenson Button will be the pilots of the BAR in the next season.
