2000 Michael Schumacher Ferrari F1
This is one of the most iconic racing cars of all time, driven by Ferrari legend Michael Schumacher in his first Ferrari World Championship-winning season. The car was critical in helping Ferrari win their first Formula One Drivers’ World Championship in 21 years, and the start of Ferrari’s dynasty run of five consecutive Driver’s World Championships from 2000 to 2004. The F1-2000 boasted advanced aerodynamics and a redesigned 90-degree V-10 engine that allowed engineers to subtly lower the car’s centre of gravity. In Brazil, two weeks after the triumph in Australia, Schumacher won again, followed by victory at San Marino in the third round of the championship. In the following 11 grands prix, Schumacher placed the iconic red machine on pole position no fewer than eight times, closing the season with four back-to-back wins and clinching the Formula One World Drivers’ Championship in the penultimate race of the season at Suzuka. Chassis 198, the car offered here, proved vital to the success of Schumacher’s Championship-winning 2000 season.
