Schumacher, behind the wheel of the Ferrari F310B, faced one of the most intense seasons of his career. With 5 victories—including Monaco, Canada, France, Belgium, and Japan—and 9 total podiums, the German driver battled Jacques Villeneuve until the very last race for the title. The infamous and controversial Jerez Grand Prix, where Schumacher and Villeneuve collided, sparked a rivalry that would become part of F1 history. The steering wheel from the 1997 Ferrari F310B, featured in this set, is a truly rare and historically significant piece. In 2003, Schumacher made history once again with the Ferrari F2003-GA, the car that earned him his sixth world championship title, surpassing the legendary Juan Manuel Fangio. With 6 wins—including Imola, Monza, and Montreal—Schumacher celebrated his fourth consecutive title with Ferrari, solidifying his legendary bond with the Italian team. The race-used helmet worn that season is packed with meaning, a symbol of one of Schumacher and Ferrari’s greatest triumphs. ## Unique collector’s items with growing value The 2003 helmet and 1997 steering wheel are authentic, one-of-a-kind items steeped in legendary history.
