Predicted Horsepower for F1 2002 engines

[Rooikappie]

Hi everyone

I'm a new guy here and I have done some searching, but couldn't find anything similar to my topic. So I guess this has not been discussed before.

Since the 2002 season is over and 2003 has almost started, there must be more information (rumours) to what the specs. (BHP and RPM) of the various team engines was for last year during the race and qualifying.

If I'm correct "Autosport" usually give their opinion on this, but I can't find the article unless someone can give me a link.

Can someone please tell me?

Thanx

This should be pretty accurate:


BMW slightly less than 890 HP Around 90 kg
Ferrari 875 hp 94 kg
Honda 870-875 hp around 105 kg
Mercedes 870 hp <100 kg
Cosworth 855 hp <95 kg
Toyota 850 hp 95
Petronas 845 hp 96 kg
Renault 810 hp 90 kg
Asiatech 770 hp >100 kg

Thanx for the info.

I guess those values are for the race engines and that the qualifying engines can even be higher. Am I right?

Anyway, thanx again

Renault performed very well last season with an engine that is more than 80 hp behind the topteams!
Although I personally think that the renault does not look like being very fast. Kind of a heavy car, at least the looks of it.

Anyway... going back to work now ...
