September 15, 2002, Italian GP, Monza.
The Tifosi’s went crazy after Ferrari dominated the race again. Schumacher slowed his car down in order to let Barrichello win the race. Second place went to Michael Schumacher.
Model shown is one of my built Tameo version.


September 29, 2002 United States GP, Indianapolis
Ferrari was in charge of the US GP again. Schumacher slowed down about 30 foot brior crossing the white line to have both Ferraris crossing the white finish line together, Barrichello misunderstood and went by Schumacher crossing the line first. The press did not like that at all, and again the Scuderia even not at fault this time, Ferrari was warned by Max Mosley FIA official not to let this happen again.

Model shown is a special limited built, by a small shop in California. The ultimate driver Schumacher figures was also done by the same place.

Conclusion for the season 2002, a great year for the Scuderia by winning the Constructors Championship again.
For Michael Schumacher it was his fifth World Champion Title.

The season 2003,

The F2003-GA was named after the deceased Fiat-CEO, Gianni Agnelli, the F2003-GA is the forty ninth single-seater built by Ferrari to compete in the Formula 1 World Championship. The basic design concept is unchanged from that of the F2002. Attention has been paid to optimizing aerodynamic efficiency in addition to further lowering the car’s centre of gravity. All areas of the car have been completely redesigned in an effort to get the maximum performance out of the new 052 engine and the Bridgestone tires.
At its first outing, Michael Schumacher drove the F2003-GA to a lap record on the Scuderia's test track, Fiorano.

Maranello, 7th February 2003, the Press presentation of the new F2003GA was done by
Montezemolo and Todt. Uncovering the F2003GA was performed by Schumacher, Barrichello, Badoer and Massa.
Model shown is a BBR-BG243
