Ferrari F92A 1992 Ex. J. Alesi

Reliable 12 cylinder engine, 700 PS, none pneumatic, 505 kg, semiautomatic. 1 from 3 running cars of the year 1992. 6 races in that season with a 3rd place in Canada, a 4th place in Brazil and a 5th place in Germany.

With the F92A Ferrari introduced a new numbering system regarding their Formula 1 racing cars. Referring to the new V12 engine, the A1A-92, the car received the typing 92A. The engine was lighter and more compact than its predecessors. The car was developed by Steve Nichols and the French aerodynamicist Jean-Claude Migeot. The F92A was known for its two underfloors. When driving, the turbulent air was directed between the actual underbody and the cockpit floor 15 cm above. From there the air flowed to both rear diffusers. What worked well in the wind tunnel became a problem on the road. Especially on wavy stretches, the car was hard to control. Migeot also developed a new front end. On the left and right two air inlets were pulled so far forward that the air flowed past the body and pushed the rear down without affecting the function of the rear wing.
