The Ferrari F1-2000 was the Formula One racing car with which the Ferrari team competed in the 2000 Formula One World Championship.
Design
The chassis was designed by Rory Byrne, Giorgio Ascanelli, Aldo Costa, Marco Fainello, Nikolas Tombazis and James Allison with Ross Brawn playing a vital role in leading the production of the car as the team's Technical Director and Paolo Martinelli assisted by Giles Simon leading the engine design and operations. The car was a direct development of the F300 and F399 from the previous two seasons, using the same basic gearbox and a new engine with a wider V-angle (90 degrees vs. 80 degrees in the 048 engine); this new wider angle improved and lowered the centre of gravity of the car. It also featured improved aerodynamics over the F399 most noticeably a flatter underside of the nose area, which put it on par with that year's McLaren MP4/15.[1]
Season performance
The new car had improved cooling over its predecessors and much smaller, more rounded sidepods to improve airflow. Detail changes had been made to the weight distribution to improve handling and make the car as light as possible.[2] Despite the improvements, the F1-2000 used its tyres harder than the McLaren, which was still faster overall.[3] Andrew Benson of BBC Sport stated that McLaren had the best and fastest car for the third straight year, concluding that the "F1-2000 was not quite a match for the McLaren-Mercedes MP4/15, but in Schumacher's hands it was close enough, and on occasions plainly faster".[4]
The Ferrari car underwent constant development. The angled front wing was replaced with a more conventional flat plane wing at the United States Grand Prix and larger bargeboards were fitted in time for the French Grand Prix.
Despite a mid season slump which saw three consecutive retirements, Michael Schumacher drove the F1-2000 to his third World Drivers' Title and Ferrari's first after a 21 year title drought.[5] It also defended Ferrari's constructors' crown, and signified the start of the team's dominance throughout the first half of the decade.[6]
Livery
Ferrari used the Marlboro logos, except at the British, French and United States Grands Prix due to a ban on tobacco advertising in those countries.
In video games
