Ciaron Smith proud owner of a F2002 scale model here! 💪🏻😎🔝 that's also my favorite F1 Ferrari, I didn't know it was the most powerful F1 car of 2002, wow, no wonder why was that dominant! 😁
And that 3rd place came at the Malaysian GP when the Ferraris were still running the F2001 chassis. The F2002 was introduced in Brazil the following round and went on to win. The B-spec of that car was also used for the first four round of 2003, and remained competitive, winning in San Marino and setting the fastest lap of each GP in 2003 up to that point (looking at the fastest time set in practice/qualifying), took pole in 3/4 races and fastest lap in 3/4 races before the F2003-GA was introduced at the Spanish GP. If one compares the F2004M which ran for the first two rounds of the 2005 season vs. the F2002B in 2003, the latter was much quicker (the F2004M was roughly off by 0,8 % (Australia) and 1,5 % (Malaysia) by the quickest time set during the weekend. In terms of fastest lap 0,6 % (Australia) and 1,5 % (Malaysia)). Of course it is a bit unfair comparison because the rule changes from 2002 to 2003 was less significant to Ferraris domination than the 2004 to 2005 changes (especially the one tire rule and the changes to the diffuser).
In 2004, the only 2 races he wasn’t on the podium were Monaco (crashed in tunnel), and China (puncture, collision), but he still set fastest laps in both of those races. This list is about the cars, not what he did. If anything they’re tied, and the 2004 gets it on looks for a tiebreaker.
Happy birthday number 50, Michael Schumacher! Schumi is 100% talented and persevering and will never give up! Schumacher is the best Formula 1 driver in history. Keep Fighting Michael! Greetings from Chile to all fans of Michael Schumacher and Formula 1.
Eduardo Toledo calm down we know it’s his birthday. His was a great driver of course but he had his faults with cheating. His one of the greatest drivers of all time. Senna,Louder,Fangio,Clarke and Prost they are all up there.
Most intelligent people wouldn't try and claim any of the greats were objectively the best, and no intelligent person would claim that Schumacher is. Hamilton will end up with 7 championships, just like Schumi, and I bet no one will run around claiming he is the GOAT.
I personally love the Ferrari F2004 and the Benetton B195, but also the Ferrari F1-2000, Ferrari F2002, and the Benetton B192. They're honestly some of the most beautiful F1 cars, with those gorgeous liveries, and probably some of the best sounding V10 (and V8) engines, too!
Well the b194 only had a V8 engine whereas the williams had a more powerful V10, Schumacher was also excluded from a few races. The R26 was faster during the first half of the season until the mass damper got banned i guess, it was very close between ferrari and renault in 2006.
Bar Goldstein 94 car was sneaky and illegal. It regained traction control and launch control when they were banned. He wouldn’t have stood a chance against senna if it hadn’t had illegal driver aids
@@FormulaOneFan98 There were 3 other drivers, Lehto, Herbert and Verstappen, and I don't ever remember them talking (to this day) about traction control in the car. Considering that there were 32 point scoring opportunities that year, were retired or DSQ from 15, they still ended up in 2nd place in the WCC. That's a strong car!
I'm always amazed when I return to this video how balanced and fair you guys were in your analysis! Schumacher gets a lot of flak which makes it easier for nay sayers to take away from his true skill. Thank you.
Despite the comment at the end, I really can’t argue with that. The only cars I want higher are the 1992 and 1993 Benettons but that’s purely because I think they had one of the best liveries of all time! No other reason really.
I'd put the F2002 on top, it was more dominant than the F2004 and over the course of the season only widened the gap over the opposition whereas by the end of 2004 the competition had closed up, at least a little.
I actually agree with the top 5. The F2005 would have been right up there if it had Michelin tires, but the tires are part of the car. However the Jordan 191 should be dead last. The car was very slow and very unreliable when in comparison to every other car on this list. Plus the B191 even won a race with Nelson Piquet.
I actually disagree. The tyres are something the Constructor (in this case Ferrari) had no way of influencing - hence they are not part of the car for me.
The fact that Bridgestone was the de facto exclusive Ferrari supplier probably hurt them that year in terms of development; Michelin could gather data from every other contending constructor, instead of relying on one team plus a couple of backmarkers.
Interestingly enough, Schumacher was of the of the opinion that the B195 was proportionally not as good as the B194, it was the first car Benetton designed to accommodate a V10 Renault engine, rather than the Ford V8 that they'd used for years. As such, it was more of a packaging compromise. It also meant that it was more of a knife edge car to drive, Imola 1995 was a case in point, got slightly off line in the damp conditions and ended up putting Imola's improved safety facilities straight to the test. Putting it simply, the B195 wasn't as good a car as the B194, but as a team, they were on point. They frequently came up with better strategies to outfox the Williams team
I tried to do something similar for Kimi Räikkonen and came up with this list: Ferrari F2007 McLaren MP4-20 (2005) Lotus E20 (2012) Ferrari SF71-H (2018) McLaren MP4-17D (2003) Ferrari F2008
Lotus E21 (2013) McLaren MP4-19 (2004) McLaren MP4-21 (2006) McLaren MP4-17 (2002) Ferrari SF70-H (2017) Sauber C20 (2001) Ferrari F60 (2009) Ferrari SF16-H (2016) Ferrari SF15-T (2015) Ferrari SF14-T (2014) McLaren MP4-20 coming second to F2007 comes mainly down to reliability problems, otherwise I think it was a faster car. I rate the Lotuses quite high as Räikkonen returned to F1 with a much needed motivation and dragged those cars to wins, while F60 is far down the order despite the win in Spa simply because it was a dreadful season and an unconvincing car for Ferrari. His second stint in Ferrari offered us some of the worst F1 cars Räikkonen ever drove, with SF14-T comfortably at the end of the list.
I really like your list dude! However I would change the F2007 and the MP4-20... only because of the car livery.. in my Opinion the late 90s and early 2000s McLarens are their best liveries... I understand that he won his championship in the Ferrari.. but I'd say the McLaren is just a bit better...
The 2017 Ferrari was much better than most cars on this list. The 2015 car was also quite good, much better than the 2002, 2004 (a truly horrible car) and 2006 McLaren. The 2014 Ferrari was quite bad as well, roughly as uncompetitive as that Sauber I think.
Mine would be: McLaren MP4/20 Ferrari SF71-H Ferrari SF70-H Ferrari F2008 Ferrari F2007 Ferrari SF15-T McLaren MP4/17D Lotus E21 Lotus E20 McLaren MP4/17 McLaren MP4/21 Ferrari SF16-H Ferrari F60 McLaren MP4/19 Ferrari SF14-T Sauber C20
@@Cdub_socks I share the same sentiments, I started watching F1 in 2003 and I'm in love with McLaren ever since, those West liveries are unbeatable. But objectivelly speaking, F2007 was just far more reliable and thus better as a whole. Subjectivelly I would put MP4-20 at the top.
The great step forward made by Ferrari with respect to the competitors was made with the F2001. That year it was several levels forward in terms of aerodynamic. It deserves more credit
@@emilekaram6094 It was not as dominant as the two you mentioned. I was talking purely in terms of advancements brought in comparison to its predecessor. In this sense, the leap forward of the F2001 compared to the F2000 was bigger than that of the F2002 compared to the F2001 and that of the F2004 compared to the F2003.
@Emile Karam Again, my argument was not about dominance but about improvement compared to the previous year. My personal ranking in terms of dominance is as follows: 1. F2004 2. F2002 3. F2001 Oh, another point in favour of the F2001 (i am in love with that car as you can see :D): that is the Ferrari F1 car of the Schumacher era that achieved the highest number of pole positions (13), more than the F2004 and F2002.
@@gival9042 13 with the addition of the 1st 2 2002 races I think, but I think this car was more like a qualifying car unlike F2002 and F2004 who focused more on the races. And Schumi had his personal best season in 2001, so yeah that's why he was able to get that much of poles in this car, but had Montoya been there for a year already like 2002, we would've taken some of Michael's poles in 2001 like 2002, cause 2001 Williams was of course better and closer
some people would argue about the 2010 car, because that brought him back into f1, not in his prime. but he was back in f1 and getting some pretty decent results.
There is amazing footage & sound in the #F1TV app archive of all these cars racing with or without commentary. I recently watched the Monza 91 where you could hear V8, V10, V12. It's like a new box set for all the seasons I never saw. #Michael50 #KeepFighting @keepfighting
I think between late 80s and early 2000s the cars were the worst and most boring. You really needed livery to distinguish them. Similar today to be honest. Before the 80s cars were weird and funky looking and I loved it. For a while in the mid 2000s you had interesting concepts like the shark fin, walrus tusk nose, the devil horns, and other funky wing designs. Then they killed it in 2009, and we had penis noses in F1 for several seasons and still used by a bunch of teams.
@@sloppynyuszi Gordon Murray also complained about this. F1 cars in 90s until today were too similar to each other. Only frontal nose seemed a bit different.
@@sloppynyuszi they look similar? Ferrari 96 air intakes, tyrrell 97 nose, Ferrari 92 double floor, Benetton 94, Forti 95 fat nose, Leyton house 90 Slim body..all of them had 4 wheels, but they were not similar
I have agree pretty much with your list, if it was a best looking list, the Jordan would win!! However, what it shows is Michael didn't have it all his own way with great cars. Winning in some that weren't great shows how freely talented he was. . Anyway, on his 50th birthday I wish him well. Keep fighting Michael..
Yet completely irrelevant. We're talking about 20 years of technological development, regulation changes and variable racing conditions. One would hope that a car 20 years newer then another one would be faster!
As someone who started watching F1 in 96 i am a bit sad to see the f310 not be higher. Yes with benefit of hindsight it was ugly and schumi dragged it to results. But that race in Spain 96 is iconic, on a par with Senna at Donington. Its also just an icon because it is Schumi's first Ferrari.
B191 won two races with Nelson Piquet, plus some podiums and a very strong start for Michael Schumacher. It was also the base car for the next seasons.
The F2002 was the most dominant Ferrari, Schumi finished all races on the podium. And for the B194, he won 8 of 12 races(9 with Spa's disqualification for excessive wear of the wooden flat bottom because of a spin), for the TC scandal, I don't think they used it because Verstappen, Lehto and Herbert were way slower than Michael. If they had used it, Benetton would have won both championships.
The 1995 Benetton wasn't that special I think. In fact, the 1995 title battle was pretty close until Hill cracked under pressure at the end of the season. In 1994 Schumacher was very dominant until he started doing stupid things (that is, repeatedly overtaking Hill in the formation lap). The 2005 Ferrari cannot be that bad as it evolved from arguably the best Ferrari ever produced (I do think the 2002 Ferrari was better; it was more consistent), but tire problems really hurt them. Personally I would rank the 2003 car above the 1999 car and maybe even the 1998 car. The worst Mercedes was probably the 2011 car. The 2010 car was at least capable of scoring podiums and 4th or 5th fastest. The 2012 car was quite good at the beginning of the season, but the lack of development really hurt them as the season progressed. Probably the 2012 and 2010 Mercedes should be ahead of the 1996 Ferrari.
I'd put the F1 2000 up in third as Ferrari worked all 4 years to get this car to absolute perfection. And they really did because this was was good in every aspect. The B195 though was difficult to handle, because onlce Michael admitted that he never really trusted the car all year and that's why it makes the place under the F1 2001. Makes it even more amazing how he pushed in on its limits with no trust. #KeepFightingMichael
@Sean Price The only reason why Mika was able to give a fight to Schumi was because of the dominant Adrain Newey designed Mclarens of late 90s. For me, the 2 drivers that ended the Schumacher era were Alonso(05-06) and Kimi (03). Montoya as well drove dominant Williams, which made him look better than he was.
@Sean Price It wasn't a great car? Really? Hakkinen and Coulthard used to lock up the front row with the Mclarens all the time. Schumacher was the one, who used to drag that Ferrari for the championship. Coulthard was fighting with the 2001 McLaren for the championship with Schumacher. And when u look at Coulthard's career, it's been really pathetic, with him only beating Klien throughout his career. The only highlight that he had in his career was beating Hakkinen in 97 and 01, which suggests that Hakkinen was overrated.
@Sean Price Yes it was unreliable, especially from 99-01, but when u look at Hakkinen's relative performances to Coulthard, then you would know, he was nothing special. Schumacher dragged those Ferrari's in late 90s for championship, Hakkinen was simply given the fastest car on the field during that time.
You can argue about a position here or there but by the criteria on which were his best cars - and not in which cars he did his best performances - I don't think you can argue too much about the list (maybe about the Jordan). Seems a fair enough list.
My ranking of the cars: 1 Ferrari F2004 2 Ferrari 248 F1 (once it was upgraded post-Canada) 3 Ferrari F2002 (qualifying pace was atrocious, though; in a parallel universe Williams don't cock up at almost every race, and win the title) 4 Ferrari F399 5 Ferrari F2001 (only really won the title by default, poor season from McLaren and Williams weren't at the races) 6 Benetton B195 7 Ferrari F1-2000 (not a particularly fast car, McLaren easily quicker) 8 Ferrari F2003-GA (a good car, Rubens won some races, just a really tight season) 9 Ferrari F300 10 Benetton B193 11 Ferrari F310B 12 Mercedes W03 13 Jordan 191 14 Benetton B194 (Lehto, Verstappen, and Herbert only got 11 points between them in 18 starts) 15 Ferrari F2005 16 Ferrari F310 17 Benetton B192 18 Mercedes W01 19 Mercedes W02 20 Benetton B191
If you are ranking #1 the Ferrari of 2004, you have to rank higher the one from 2003. The mechanics used parts of that car to build that 2004 monster. It is even stated that they expected the car to be faster by half a second, but they were blown away when in testing it was faster by 2 seconds. The 2003 car is really underrated.
My Ranking F2O02 F2004 F 248 F1 ( Totally underrated .From Indy to Brasil was widely the best car . I think the prime Schumacher could win that Championship. Even the young Felipe won 2 races with that car underneath ) Benetton B195 Ferrari F2001 Ferrari F 2003 ( strong car , i think the difference among michelin e bridgestone made that season tight ) Ferrari F 2000 ( McLaren was a bit better in terms of pure speeding ) Ferrari F399 Benetton B194 Ferrari F300 Benetton B192 Benetton B 193 Ferrari 310B Mercedes W03 Mercedes W01 (not so bad at all . Nico Rosberg scored few podiums ) Ferrari F2005 ( What a shame for Ferrari being 12th in Monza ) Mercedes W02 Jordan 191 (midfield car )
@@FaithlessEmoRacing it was the Benetton B193 , inspired by the new 4 wheel steering used on cars like the Mitsubishi 3000 GTO . www.racefans.net/2007/03/22/banned-four-wheel-steering/
@@FaithlessEmoRacing it's a bit confusing because it sounds like they're talking about the F2003-GA but if you look closely Edd actually points to the B193, also www.racefans.net/2007/03/22/banned-four-wheel-steering/
The Ferrari F2002 should be on top in my opinion. Yes, the car was launched in the Brazilian GP, but was dominating out of the box till the first 3 races of 2003. The F2004 was dominating but only in the 2004 but when they used it on the 1st few races of 2005... the car lost its edge. Thats just my 2 cents.
Not going to say anything is wrong with any of the placings but my all time favourite will always be the B195, the car was great and he was on fire that season
the 96 Ferrari and the '05 Ferrari I'd rate really low, especially because these are the cars where he showed just how good he was...specifically Spain 1996 and San Marino 2005. Those races just said, forget if you like him or not, he's just the best.
I'd still put the F2003GA above the F300. Both cars he won 6 races a piece with but only one championship. Mika was ahead on points going into Suzuka and even if he'd finished 2nd instead of winning it he still would have won the title over the Schumacher. If I remember correctly Mika was ahead by 4 points and could have just cruised behind Schumi and still got it.
F2004 F2002 F2001 F399 F2000 B195 F300 F2003 248 F1 B192 B193 F2005 B194 F310B B191 F310 191 I don't count the Mercedes. Methodology: How good were Schumacher's teammates and how well did they do with the car? Example: B192 comes above the B194 because Brundle achieved 11 points finishes in 12/13 races. 5 of which were podiums. Verstappen/Lehto/Herbert achieved naff all with the B194. Also, unlike the WIlliams FW14B and McLaren MP4/7, the B192 was a manual rather than semi-automatic car. Example 2: F300, Eddie Irvine finished 4th in the championship and was on the podium in half the races. Only finished 9 points behind Coulthard who had a much superior car.
Michael have an agreement with Brawn. he seriously considering returning for 2013 because he know that is the year they finally be competitive. But Brawn later revealed to him that the board are chasing after Lewis and thinking Both of their time at Mercedes have reach conclusions so he agree to retire if they got Hamilton.
I agree with your list but not with the statement that Schumacher would have won 1999 championship without the leg injury. Häkkinen had more points than Schumacher even if we only counted the points from races where Schumacher participated. Irvine got so close to winning the title cause Häkkinen and Schumacher made each other better on the track and Häkkinen wasn't driving as well as usual with Michael missing.
Glad the F310b ended up in the mid table. After all in the second half of 1997 that car was probably just as competitive - if not better - than the Williams (Newey had left in September 1996 so he arguably had limited input).
“Never proven” Read the FIA statement from Charlie Whiting, they categorically say that Launch Control is a form of traction control because it controls engine speed.
My opinion 1° Benetton B 195 2° Ferrari F 2004 3° Ferrari F 2002 4° Ferrari F 2000 5° Ferrari F 2001 16° Ferrari F 2005 17° Benetton B191 18° Mercedes W03 19° Mercedes W01 20° Mercedes W02
Benetton b193 hold a special place in looks and livery. As much as i love b194, i think b193 is a better looking car. F2004, B193, MP4/4, MP4/14 (13), FW14B are by far the best looking cars ever. Mp4/14, b193 and f2004 are my all time favorite
I wish Michael could join in and sort this list out. 😁

Harsh on the B192 as Brundle managed 38 points and p6 in the WDC. I'd probably put it 11th. Other than that good list.

On the pictures you can see how nice the F1 cars were up to the mid 2000s. The Benetton B194 for me the most beautiful Schumacher F1 car.
Benetton 194 should be much higher, specifically higher than the 98-99 Ferraris

Think the 2001 should be higher, as they used the 2001 in the opening race of 2002 and still got a front row lock out and a win with a "year old" car
I absolutely agree !

Thank you for the video! #KeepFightingMichael
I'd put the F2002 on top, it was more dominant than the F2004 and over the course of the season only widened the gap over the opposition whereas by the end of 2004 the competition had closed up, at least a little.
Very cool video guys : D
Totally discounting the B194
I actually agree with the top 5. The F2005 would have been right up there if it had Michelin tires, but the tires are part of the car. However the Jordan 191 should be dead last. The car was very slow and very unreliable when in comparison to every other car on this list. Plus the B191 even won a race with Nelson Piquet.
I actually disagree. The tyres are something the Constructor (in this case Ferrari) had no way of influencing - hence they are not part of the car for me.
If you think Ferrari didn't have any input into what Bridgestone gave them, I've got a bridge for sale.
The fact that Bridgestone was the de facto exclusive Ferrari supplier probably hurt them that year in terms of development; Michelin could gather data from every other contending constructor, instead of relying on one team plus a couple of backmarkers.
Interestingly enough, Schumacher was of the of the opinion that the B195 was proportionally not as good as the B194, it was the first car Benetton designed to accommodate a V10 Renault engine, rather than the Ford V8 that they'd used for years. As such, it was more of a packaging compromise. It also meant that it was more of a knife edge car to drive, Imola 1995 was a case in point, got slightly off line in the damp conditions and ended up putting Imola's improved safety facilities straight to the test.
Putting it simply, the B195 wasn't as good a car as the B194, but as a team, they were on point. They frequently came up with better strategies to outfox the Williams team
I tried to do something similar for Kimi Räikkonen and came up with this list:
Ferrari F2007
McLaren MP4-20
(2005)
Lotus E20
(2012)
Ferrari SF71-H
(2018)
McLaren MP4-17D
(2003)
Ferrari F2008
Lotus E21
(2013)
McLaren MP4-19
(2004)
McLaren MP4-21
(2006)
McLaren MP4-17
(2002)
Ferrari SF70-H
(2017)
Sauber C20
(2001)
Ferrari F60
(2009)
Ferrari SF16-H
(2016)
Ferrari SF15-T
(2015)
Ferrari SF14-T
(2014)
McLaren MP4-20 coming second to F2007 comes mainly down to reliability problems, otherwise I think it was a faster car. I rate the Lotuses quite high as Räikkonen returned to F1 with a much needed motivation and dragged those cars to wins, while F60 is far down the order despite the win in Spa simply because it was a dreadful season and an unconvincing car for Ferrari. His second stint in Ferrari offered us some of the worst F1 cars Räikkonen ever drove, with SF14-T comfortably at the end of the list.
I really like your list dude! However I would change the F2007 and the MP4-20... only because of the car livery.. in my Opinion the late 90s and early 2000s McLarens are their best liveries... I understand that he won his championship in the Ferrari.. but I'd say the McLaren is just a bit better...
I really do like how you made a list for Kimi though... we should do more for other drivers!
The 2017 Ferrari was much better than most cars on this list. The 2015 car was also quite good, much better than the 2002, 2004 (a truly horrible car) and 2006 McLaren. The 2014 Ferrari was quite bad as well, roughly as uncompetitive as that Sauber I think.
Mine would be:
McLaren MP4/20
Ferrari SF71-H
Ferrari SF70-H
Ferrari F2008
Ferrari F2007
Ferrari SF15-T
McLaren MP4/17D
Lotus E21
Lotus E20
McLaren MP4/17
McLaren MP4/21
Ferrari SF16-H
Ferrari F60
McLaren MP4/19
Ferrari SF14-T
Sauber C20
@@Cdub_socks I share the same sentiments, I started watching F1 in 2003 and I'm in love with McLaren ever since, those West liveries are unbeatable. But objectivelly speaking, F2007 was just far more reliable and thus better as a whole. Subjectivelly I would put MP4-20 at the top.
The great step forward made by Ferrari with respect to the competitors was made with the F2001. That year it was several levels forward in terms of aerodynamic. It deserves more credit
And do you consider this F2001 dominant like F2002 and F2004?? Or not that much?? Cause I don't think it was even on the level of RB7( 2011)
@@emilekaram6094 It was not as dominant as the two you mentioned. I was talking purely in terms of advancements brought in comparison to its predecessor. In this sense, the leap forward of the F2001 compared to the F2000 was bigger than that of the F2002 compared to the F2001 and that of the F2004 compared to the F2003.
@@gival9042 OMG, so it's considered dominant or not that much( just like semi-dominant)?? Cause I feel that even RB7, RB9, and W10 were stronger.
@Emile Karam Again, my argument was not about dominance but about improvement compared to the previous year.
My personal ranking in terms of dominance is as follows:
1. F2004
2. F2002
3. F2001
Oh, another point in favour of the F2001 (i am in love with that car as you can see :D): that is the Ferrari F1 car of the Schumacher era that achieved the highest number of pole positions (13), more than the F2004 and F2002.
@@gival9042 13 with the addition of the 1st 2 2002 races I think, but I think this car was more like a qualifying car unlike F2002 and F2004 who focused more on the races. And Schumi had his personal best season in 2001, so yeah that's why he was able to get that much of poles in this car, but had Montoya been there for a year already like 2002, we would've taken some of Michael's poles in 2001 like 2002, cause 2001 Williams was of course better and closer
I think you guys got the list spot on. Great job guys
Pretty decent list although Jordan 191 as good as it looks should be nearly last along with Benetton b191
some people would argue about the 2010 car, because that brought him back into f1, not in his prime. but he was back in f1 and getting some pretty decent results.
That was great to watch, wouldve been lovely to see a little clip of the spoken cars in action as they were put on the board
There is amazing footage & sound in the #F1TV app archive of all these cars racing with or without commentary. I recently watched the Monza 91 where you could hear V8, V10, V12. It's like a new box set for all the seasons I never saw. #Michael50 #KeepFighting @keepfighting
I prefer early '90s car because they still look mechanical and cool. I would go for the Jordan F1 as #1
The funny part is that the early 90s cars were the most electronic
I think between late 80s and early 2000s the cars were the worst and most boring. You really needed livery to distinguish them. Similar today to be honest. Before the 80s cars were weird and funky looking and I loved it. For a while in the mid 2000s you had interesting concepts like the shark fin, walrus tusk nose, the devil horns, and other funky wing designs. Then they killed it in 2009, and we had penis noses in F1 for several seasons and still used by a bunch of teams.
@@sloppynyuszi Gordon Murray also complained about this. F1 cars in 90s until today were too similar to each other. Only frontal nose seemed a bit different.
Teunis Dokter i would rate the 2012 Merc way higher
@@sloppynyuszi they look similar? Ferrari 96 air intakes, tyrrell 97 nose, Ferrari 92 double floor, Benetton 94, Forti 95 fat nose, Leyton house 90 Slim body..all of them had 4 wheels, but they were not similar
I have agree pretty much with your list, if it was a best looking list, the Jordan would win!! However, what it shows is Michael didn't have it all his own way with great cars. Winning in some that weren't great shows how freely talented he was. . Anyway, on his 50th birthday I wish him well.
Keep fighting Michael..
is there any track where all cars
was driven? Spa? so a fastest Laptime compare would be intersting.
Yet completely irrelevant. We're talking about 20 years of technological development, regulation changes and variable racing conditions. One would hope that a car 20 years newer then another one would be faster!

50 YEARS OF MICHAEL SCHUMACHER
The F2002 is actually better than the F2004 .
Actually Barrichello didn't perform as good as his 2002 performance.
@@TheKestevon true that.
F2002 was his most dominant car. No doubt. Only Williams (Montoya, in particular), had a chance in quali.
@@ciaronsmith4995 Exactly
@@georgejakob1451 The F2002 car won a whole year later, in 2003, easily.
EDIT: The F2001 car won a whole year later, in 2002 (not F2002 in 2003).
As someone who started watching F1 in 96 i am a bit sad to see the f310 not be higher. Yes with benefit of hindsight it was ugly and schumi dragged it to results. But that race in Spain 96 is iconic, on a par with Senna at Donington. Its also just an icon because it is Schumi's first Ferrari.
B191 won two races with Nelson Piquet, plus some podiums and a very strong start for Michael Schumacher. It was also the base car for the next seasons.
Personally, I would switch the F2004 and F2002, but otherwise, I like the list
Durwin19 same here! 😎✌🏻️
The F2002 was the most dominant Ferrari, Schumi finished all races on the podium.
And for the B194, he won 8 of 12 races(9 with Spa's disqualification for excessive wear of the wooden flat bottom because of a spin), for the TC scandal, I don't think they used it because Verstappen, Lehto and Herbert were way slower than Michael. If they had used it, Benetton would have won both championships.

I agree with all 20
The 1995 Benetton wasn't that special I think. In fact, the 1995 title battle was pretty close until Hill cracked under pressure at the end of the season. In 1994 Schumacher was very dominant until he started doing stupid things (that is, repeatedly overtaking Hill in the formation lap). The 2005 Ferrari cannot be that bad as it evolved from arguably the best Ferrari ever produced (I do think the 2002 Ferrari was better; it was more consistent), but tire problems really hurt them. Personally I would rank the 2003 car above the 1999 car and maybe even the 1998 car. The worst Mercedes was probably the 2011 car. The 2010 car was at least capable of scoring podiums and 4th or 5th fastest. The 2012 car was quite good at the beginning of the season, but the lack of development really hurt them as the season progressed. Probably the 2012 and 2010 Mercedes should be ahead of the 1996 Ferrari.
95 probably wouldn't have been so close if Hill hadn't crashed into Michael on multiple occasions.
More like the FIA in 1994 starting to rob Schumacher, just to artificially keep Hill´s chances alive.
I'd put the F1 2000 up in third as Ferrari worked all 4 years to get this car to absolute perfection. And they really did because this was was good in every aspect. The B195 though was difficult to handle, because onlce Michael admitted that he never really trusted the car all year and that's why it makes the place under the F1 2001. Makes it even more amazing how he pushed in on its limits with no trust. #KeepFightingMichael
I love these Autosport videos #KeepFightingMichael
The best of his era and maybe the GOAT together with Fangio and Senna
Sean Price what about Montoya? He also gave Micheal a hard time is well
I agree with Mika is well
How about Alonso ? i know most schumi fans dont really appreciate him, but still.
@Sean Price The only reason why Mika was able to give a fight to Schumi was because of the dominant Adrain Newey designed Mclarens of late 90s. For me, the 2 drivers that ended the Schumacher era were Alonso(05-06) and Kimi (03). Montoya as well drove dominant Williams, which made him look better than he was.
@Sean Price It wasn't a great car? Really? Hakkinen and Coulthard used to lock up the front row with the Mclarens all the time. Schumacher was the one, who used to drag that Ferrari for the championship. Coulthard was fighting with the 2001 McLaren for the championship with Schumacher. And when u look at Coulthard's career, it's been really pathetic, with him only beating Klien throughout his career. The only highlight that he had in his career was beating Hakkinen in 97 and 01, which suggests that Hakkinen was overrated.
@Sean Price Yes it was unreliable, especially from 99-01, but when u look at Hakkinen's relative performances to Coulthard, then you would know, he was nothing special. Schumacher dragged those Ferrari's in late 90s for championship, Hakkinen was simply given the fastest car on the field during that time.
You can argue about a position here or there but by the criteria on which were his best cars - and not in which cars he did his best performances - I don't think you can argue too much about the list (maybe about the Jordan). Seems a fair enough list.
My ranking of the cars:
1 Ferrari F2004
2 Ferrari 248 F1 (once it was upgraded post-Canada)
3 Ferrari F2002 (qualifying pace was atrocious, though; in a parallel universe Williams don't cock up at almost every race, and win the title)
4 Ferrari F399
5 Ferrari F2001 (only really won the title by default, poor season from McLaren and Williams weren't at the races)
6 Benetton B195
7 Ferrari F1-2000 (not a particularly fast car, McLaren easily quicker)
8 Ferrari F2003-GA (a good car, Rubens won some races, just a really tight season)
9 Ferrari F300
10 Benetton B193
11 Ferrari F310B
12 Mercedes W03
13 Jordan 191
14 Benetton B194 (Lehto, Verstappen, and Herbert only got 11 points between them in 18 starts)

17 Benetton B192
18 Mercedes W01
19 Mercedes W02
20 Benetton B191
I'm with ed. 191 is the best looking car ever
personally would put his 2002 car top, 100% podium success that season for him
Benetton B191, his first win, and the last win for a proper manual transmission.
pretty agree with the classification how it panned out! cool video.......
If you are ranking #1 the Ferrari of 2004, you have to rank higher the one from 2003. The mechanics used parts of that car to build that 2004 monster. It is even stated that they expected the car to be faster by half a second, but they were blown away when in testing it was faster by 2 seconds. The 2003 car is really underrated.
Couldn't imagine this video would turn out quite interesting :)

Call me whatever you want, but to me the 96 low nose F310 is one of the best looking F1 cars ever
DocDudix personally I love the 92 benneton and the 04 Ferrari in terms of looks
ikr the low nose was nice.
Hmm but it was chubby hahaha. Not my taste
instantly disliked for inaccurately listing the Jordan
The Ferrari F2002 should be on top in my opinion. Yes, the car was launched in the Brazilian GP, but was dominating out of the box till the first 3 races of 2003. The F2004 was dominating but only in the 2004 but when they used it on the 1st few races of 2005... the car lost its edge. Thats just my 2 cents.
Not going to say anything is wrong with any of the placings but my all time favourite will always be the B195, the car was great and he was on fire that season
Well... i can agree on the first two
the 96 Ferrari and the '05 Ferrari I'd rate really low, especially because these are the cars where he showed just how good he was...specifically Spain 1996 and San Marino 2005. Those races just said, forget if you like him or not, he's just the best.
I'd still put the F2003GA above the F300. Both cars he won 6 races a piece with but only one championship. Mika was ahead on points going into Suzuka and even if he'd finished 2nd instead of winning it he still would have won the title over the Schumacher. If I remember correctly Mika was ahead by 4 points and could have just cruised behind Schumi and still got it.
Should do this for Senna's cars
I think the f300 in 6th (lost the championship in the last race) f399 7h and 248 8th but cool ranking 👏🏻

I don't count the Mercedes.
Methodology: How good were Schumacher's teammates and how well did they do with the car?
Example: B192 comes above the B194 because Brundle achieved 11 points finishes in 12/13 races. 5 of which were podiums. Verstappen/Lehto/Herbert achieved naff all with the B194. Also, unlike the WIlliams FW14B and McLaren MP4/7, the B192 was a manual rather than semi-automatic car.
Example 2: F300, Eddie Irvine finished 4th in the championship and was on the podium in half the races. Only finished 9 points behind Coulthard who had a much superior car.
imagine if Schumacher never retired from F1 and dragged his career out all the way till he was 50.
Michael have an agreement with Brawn. he seriously considering returning for 2013 because he know that is the year they finally be competitive. But Brawn later revealed to him that the board are chasing after Lewis and thinking Both of their time at Mercedes have reach conclusions so he agree to retire if they got Hamilton.
that man ate schumy??
Monza 1998 - his best win for me 💪🏽💥
Oh I can finally see who Edd Straw is...
You should do Alonso's cars... that would generate some interesting discussions!
Schumi! How can we ever forget you😭
I agree with all 20.
This was a really cool video, I enjoyed it. You guys should do some other drivers.
Do Sennas cars next
why on earth would you start a list with number 1? you should've just went chronologically...
I agree with your list but not with the statement that Schumacher would have won 1999 championship without the leg injury. Häkkinen had more points than Schumacher even if we only counted the points from races where Schumacher participated. Irvine got so close to winning the title cause Häkkinen and Schumacher made each other better on the track and Häkkinen wasn't driving as well as usual with Michael missing.
Glad the F310b ended up in the mid table. After all in the second half of 1997 that car was probably just as competitive - if not better - than the Williams (Newey had left in September 1996 so he arguably had limited input).
Should do more of these with other drivers
“Never proven”
Read the FIA statement from Charlie Whiting, they categorically say that Launch Control is a form of traction control because it controls engine speed.
Im just curious who will be the goat in like 10 years? Verstappen? Hamilton? Leclerc? Vettel? Maybe Ocon? Or still Schumi
Mika Häkkinen 1998 and Fernando Alonso 2006 were the only two drivers ever to beat Schumacher with a car that could have won the championship.
My opinion
1° Benetton B 195
2° Ferrari F 2004
3° Ferrari F 2002
4° Ferrari F 2000
5° Ferrari F 2001
16° Ferrari F 2005
17° Benetton B191
18° Mercedes W03
19° Mercedes W01
20° Mercedes W02
Benetton b193 hold a special place in looks and livery. As much as i love b194, i think b193 is a better looking car. F2004, B193, MP4/4, MP4/14 (13), FW14B are by far the best looking cars ever. Mp4/14, b193 and f2004 are my all time favorite
The 94 car should be second and the 04 even though the most dominant and quick third
