Watch Charles Leclerc Drive Michael Schumacher’s 2003 Championship-Winning V10 F1 Car Like He Stole It

The 2003-GA got its name from the late Fiat boss, Gianni Agnelli, who passed away on 24 January 2003.

The car’s accomplishments include five poles, seven wins, and 13 podiums. That may not seem like an impressive list for an entire season, but there were fewer races in those days, and more importantly, the F2003-GA only competed in the second half of the season. F2002 was so good that Ferrari used it for the first half of the following season, leaving more time to develop the GA.

It’s a similar scenario to what we find in today’s road cars – the basic recipe of the 458 Italia was so good that the evolutionary 488 GTB that succeeded it needed only minor changes to become today’s F8 Tributo. Now if only Scuderia Ferrari could show the same excellence on-track.
