Benetton B194

Schumacher won six of the first seven races of the season with this car. And took home his first World Drivers’ Championship. Other teams even accused that the car was illegal due to the high competitiveness of such a comparatively underpowered car. However, even after an investigation by the FIA, they couldn’t prove that the car isn’t legal.

 

Benetton B195

The B195 was similar to the B194 but with a change of engine supplier from Ford to Renault. It resulted in a change in engine, gearbox and suspension design changes. Schumacher won his 2nd DWC title with this car along with the one and only constructors championship for Benetton.

Notably, Schumi wasn’t a big fan of this car and was very vocal about the car’s drivability.

Ferrari F1-2000

This is the car that started Ferrari-Schumacher’s era of dominance in F1. The car gave Schumi his 3rd DWC title and ended Ferrari’s 21-year slump. Ferrari and Schumacher will go on to win 5 consecutive world titles from 2000 to 2004.
