This was the car that stopped the rot for Ferrari and gave Maranello its first drivers' title since Jody Scheckter in 1979. It had a revised V10 with the vee angle up from 80 to 90 degrees, giving a lower centre of gravity and better aerodynamics.

After narrowly losing out to Mika Hakkinen and McLaren in '98/9, Ferrari had the measure of Woking in 2000 but had to survive a mid season spell when Schumacher scored just 12 points to Hakkinen's 42. An emotional Monza win prompted a recovery and Michael got the job done in Suzuka with Sepang still to go.
