The Williams FW24 was Williams F1 chassis for the 2002 F1 season. It was closely based on the previous years' FW23, and powered by a development of the ultra-powerful BMW engine from 2001. The car was aerodynamically inferior to the Ferrari
and to the rival McLaren, but the engine's outright power put in on a par with the competition.
The car proved competitive, but no match for the dominant Ferrari F2002. Ralf Schumacher scored the team's only win of the season in Malaysia. Juan-Pablo Montoya set an impressive run of five consecutive pole positions with the
car in midseason, and made the fastest lap of any circuit in history when he set pole position at Monza (a track that favours engine power) with a lap on average of nearly
161mph.
Williams finished second in the constructor's
championship to Ferrari this season, trumping the McLaren team, which had a competitive but unreliable car.
