Magnetic Filtration & Ferrari F1 / Formula 1

Magnom magnetic filtration entered F1 with Ferrari back in 2004
Following exhaustive testing, a development of this innovative magnetic filtration was fitted to the F1 cars of Michel Schumacher and Rubens Barrichello, for the first race of the season in Australia…

The two Ferrari drivers finished 1 & 2 and Michel Schumacher went on to win the world title, for the first time using Magnom Technology in the Ferrari F1 car.

It being so important to harness new technology, from the outset…Ferrari insisted on exclusivity for the new Magnom technology for a minimum of 5 years.

The Magnom magnetic filtration was fitted to the Ferrari F1 cars power units, and uniquely, was fitted ‘pre-pump’ for the first time, protecting the oil pump its self as well as the system as a whole.
