Hot Wheels 1/18 Williams F1 Car Ralf Schumacher 2000 (26735)
Ralf Schumacher made his Formula One debut in 1997 with the Jordan team .In 1999 he changed
to the Williams team and scored three podium finishes and sixth in the World Drivers
Championship with the underpowered obsolescent Supertec engine. Schumacher's performance in
the 2000 season was considered by many to be a disappointment. Running the powerful new BMW
engine, he was expected to compete for wins, but despite only four mechanical failures and
being the senior driver in the team, he was only able to match the three podium finishes of
the previous year. In 2001, however, he broke through with his first three Grand Prix wins
at Imola, Montreal and Hockenheim. In 2002, he won the Malaysian Grand Prix but finished
the championship behind team mate Juan-Pablo Montoya, and in 2003, he won the European
Grand Prix (at the N rburgring) and the French Grand Prix, helping, along with teammate
Juan Pablo Montoya the Williams team finish second in the Constructors Championship in 2002
and 2003.On June 20, 2004, Schumacher was seriously injured in an accident at the United
States Grand Prix. The acceleration was measured at 78 g (765 m/s ), one of the most severe
in all of motor racing history, resulting in a concussion as well as two minor fractures to
his spinal column. This caused him to be sidelined for the majority of the seasonmore
