World Championship Cars: Michael Schumacher

Among the “relics” of past Formula 1 world championships, the winning cars occupy a very special position. Only when driver and car complement each other perfectly, when they form a kind of symbiosis, does an exceptional performance follow. And even if the driver has long since moved on, years and decades later, the cars remain as a symbol of the victory. The seven cars in which Michael Schumacher won his world championship titles between 1994 and 2004 bear witness to his development from champion to serial winner. They still document an extraordinary driver whose performance has never been surpassed. In exquisite studio photography, this volume shows the world champion cars, which are still surrounded by a special aura. In this book, Schumacher’s manager Sabine Kehm and motoring journalist Elmar Brümmer take a closer look at the phenomenon that is Michael Schumacher – the driver, but also the person. With a foreword by seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton.
