The Ferrari F1-2000 was a direct evolution of the F300 and F399 from the previous two seasons, but with greatly improved aerodynamics and lower center of gravity. Powered by the Ferrari Tipo 049 V10, it took Michael Schumacher to his third world championship and Ferrari’s first for 21 years. It took 10 wins from 17 races.
