The 2003 season was a tough challenge for Scuderia Ferrari, but they still managed to emerge as the dominant force in Formula One, securing a record fifth consecutive constructors' championship and earning Michael Schumacher his sixth drivers' crown, making him the first driver in history to achieve this feat. The season saw intense competition from rival teams, notably McLaren-Mercedes and Williams-BMW, but Ferrari's consistent performance throughout the season, along with Schumacher's formidable driving skills, allowed them to stay ahead of the pack. Schumacher won six of the season's 16 races, finishing on the podium in nine races, and taking a total of 93 points. His teammate, Rubens Barrichello, won two races and finished second in the drivers' standings with 65 points. In the constructors' championship, Ferrari faced a strong challenge from McLaren-Mercedes, but ultimately secured the title with a total of 158 points, 14 points ahead of McLaren. This victory marked the team's fifth consecutive constructors' championship, breaking the record set by Williams in the 1990s. The team's success in the 2003 season was largely due to the strong performance of their car, the Ferrari F2003-GA, which was highly competitive and reliable throughout the season. The car was designed by the team's technical director, Ross Brawn, and was powered by a potent V10 engine from long-time engine supplier, Ferrari. Overall, the 2003 season was another highly successful year for Scuderia Ferrari, and further cemented their status as one of the greatest teams in the history of Formula One.
