25 Years of Laureus

Michael Schumacher won his third World Championship in 2000 after a hard-fought battle with Mika Häkkinen throught the season, which ebbed and flowed as fortune swung between the two drivers.
During the season, Schumacher equalled the number of wins by his great idol, Ayrton Senna and eventually clinched the title ahead of his Finnish rival at the penultimate Grand Prix of the season in Japan.
