Ferrari F2001 (planetf1.com):
'Schumacher’s fourth title came with the Ferrari F2001, and the Italian team dominated like they did for all of the early 2000s. He won nine of the twenty races in 2001, proving to be too fast for the McLaren and Williams counterparts. The ’01 car had to be built with rule changes in mind, as traction control and launch control systems were both back in action. The F2001 car would go on to be driven by Schumacher in the first two races of the 2002 season, winning one and finishing third in the other.'
Benetton B195 (planetf1.com):
Michael Schumacher won the second of his record seven titles in the Benetton B195. The car won 11 of the 17 races in the 1995 championship as the German fought off Damon Hill to clinch the title. It was one of the first of its type to look like the modern day cars. The B195 was only around for a single year, but Schumacher, along with Johnny Herbert, dominated on track that season.
