The Chance To Own Two Ferrari F2004 Is Here!

Michael Schumacher is one of the greatest Formula One drivers of all time, evident in the dominance he displayed during the 2004 season. He won 12 out of the first 13 races and eventually ended the season with 13 race victories from 18 competitions that season.

According to Autoguide, as a tribute to the preeminence of the Schumacher/Scuderia pairing high-end Italian model company, BBR, released a series of limited edition models of the Ferrari F2004. CharityStars is now offering two of these 1:43 scale models for auction, all complete with a certificate of authenticity.

The first one is the Ferrari F2004 used by Schumacher to win the victory in the 2004 Hungarian Grand Prix. It was the car that is the German's last grand slam: pole position, race win, and fastest lap, along with being the car which secured Ferrari's sixth consecutive constructors championship.

The second model is from the 2004 Italian Grand Prix. As a matter of fact, it was the same car which Michael used in Hungary but in low drag trim to maximize speed on the epic straights at Monza. Behind his teammate Rubens Barrichello, it was after an early race spin that Shcumacher would place second in a wild 1-2 finish on home soil. Barichello's fastest lap of 1:21.046 still stands as the lap record at Monza to this day, proving the unbelievable raw pace the Ferrari F2004 holds.

The Ferrari F2004 Hungarian GP model is number 303 out of 500 while the F2004 model from Monza is No. 135 out of the 200 that was produced. According to Telegraph, the Ferrari F2004 was probably the fastest Formula One car ever made, with regulations slowing the cars down.

Have you been dreaming of driving one of the fastest cars proven in history? Now is the chance to make it happen. Both auctions shall run until Dec. 28. This can be the perfect belated Christmas gift to yourself or to an F21 enthusiast. All proceeds will go to the Saints Foundation for the benefit of the disadvantaged youth in Southampton, England.
