High hopes for revised Cosworth CR-3 engine
Hayes commented; "I am confident that, with the right development, the Cosworth CR-3 V10 engine will make significant further gains in 2002," says Hayes. "For example, the block and heads incorporate new design features, and we will introduce further modifications throughout the coming season.
"We are looking to improve not only ultimate power but also power-curve width, driveability and packaging. Indeed, despite the fact that CR-3 is an evolution of CR-2, we have nonetheless significantly lowered its center of gravity without having had to resort to a wider V-angle or compromise its excellent packaging qualities."
