2000 Malaysian GP *Round 17* (ITV Commentary - Murray & Martin)

So, with the drivers championship secured for Schumacher & Ferrari, The Constructors was still up for grabs!

Which way would the final championship swing? Well the winner would become the first ever constructor to win 10 championships.

This would also be the very last starts in F1 for both Pedro Diniz & Johnny Herbert.

Johnny had had enough of fighting for scraps, and Pedro (After an argument with the team mid season) could not find a race seat with Sauber or Prost, so decided to chuck in 10 Million bucks and get a management position with the Prost team for 2001.

So there we have it, another exciting season finished with Ferrari on top again!
