The Ferrari Museum in Maranello is dedicating a tribute to Michael Schumacher on his 50th birthday in the form of a special exhibition showing his extraordinary career and his unique records in the history of Formula 1: seven world championship titles, 91 victories, 155 times on the podium.
Some of the most important Ferrari single-seaters that Schumi drove in his eleven years with the Scuderia are on display in the Sala delle Vittorie. From the F310 of 1996, with which Schumacher won three GPs in his first season with the Cavallino Rampante, to the F399, thanks to which the longest-lived team in the history of Formula 1 was able to open a unique winning streak with the Constructors' Championship. Also on display will be the F1-2000 of the legendary "Alba Rossa" (Dawn), when Michael won the world championship title for Ferrari for the first time again in Suzuka 21 years after Jody Scheckter. The F2002 and F2004, his record-breaking cars, and the 248 F1 from 2006, in which he achieved his last victory in China, his 72nd with Ferrari, are also included.
Fans will also have the opportunity to get to know a lesser-known side of Schumacher, namely that of the developer. After retiring from Formula 1, the champion from Kerpen stayed on at Ferrari not only to support the Scuderia, but also to work on the development of a number of road cars, such as the 430 Scuderia from 2007 and the Ferrari California from 2008.
The Schumacher tribute complements the existing exhibitions "Driven by Enzo" and "Passion and Legend" at the Maranello Museum. According to the museum, the exhibition will run until March 31, but could be extended.
Tickets can be purchased online or on site.
