Schumacher's 1998 Ferrari F300 is up for auction

Michael Schumacher is one of the greatest Formula 1 drivers in history, about whom very little is known since the accident that happened to him. Everything related to him attracts a lot of attention, including this 1998 Ferrari F300 car with which Schumacher achieved four out of six victories that season. The car is listed at RM Sotheby’s and the auction will take place on August 18 – 20.

The car is in excellent condition and was sold by Ferrari in 1999 to the owner who has now put it up for auction. It has chassis number 187, and driving this car in Canada, Schumacher achieved the fastest lap, but also the most important first victory of that season with an advantage of 19 seconds. He achieved his second victory in France, and his third in Great Britain. The fourth victory came in the Italian Grand Prix.

The Ferrari F300 is powered by a 3.0-liter V10 engine with 805 hp (592 kW). It is equipped with carbon-carbon composite discs, electro-hydraulic 7-speed transmission, independent push-rod, twin wishbones, torsion bar springs, Good Year tires, telescopic shock absorbers and anti-roll bar.
