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 Nürburgring) 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/s²), 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
