Antonia Terzi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Antonia Terzi (born April 20, 1971, Modena, Italy) is an aerodynamicist who has worked for the Ferrari and Williams Formula One teams.

Terzi worked in the design department at Ferrari under Rory Byrne until 2002 when she was recruited by Williams to become the teams chief aerodynamicist. Working alongside designer Gavin Fisher Terzi's time with Williams was marked by a turbulent relationship with other technical staff and the largely uncompetitive 'walrus nose' FW26. The radical aerodynamics were dropped mid-season and Terzi was fired by Williams in November 2004 in favour of ex-Prost designer Loïc Bigois.

She is currently employed by The Delft University of Technology, working together with professor Ockels at the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering.
