Formula One world champions Ferrari are to unveil their new car for the 2002 season on February 6th, a team spokesman said today.

As usual the car will be given flashy introduction at the team's Maranello headquarters in Italy before undergoing testing at the Fiorano and Mugello tracks.

The new car is not expected to feature radical changes from the 2001 model, although it will have a new gear box.

Ferrari have yet to decide whether the car will be used in the opening grands prix of the season or if they will begin the 2002 campaign with last season's model.
