British Grand Prix 2000 - Race Schedule and Countdown

David Coulthard finally broke Ferrari's winning streak with a commanding victory at Silverstone, leading home a McLaren one-two finish that revitalized the team's championship hopes. The Scot drove a flawless race from start to finish, controlling the pace perfectly and managing his tire strategy to perfection on his home circuit. Teammate Mika Häkkinen followed him across the line in second, with the silver arrows demonstrating the MP4/15's pace when reliability held.

Michael Schumacher salvaged third place for Ferrari, limiting the damage to his championship lead despite being unable to match the McLaren pace at the fast Silverstone circuit. Rubens Barrichello had claimed his first-ever pole position on Saturday, raising hopes of a maiden victory, but a poor start dropped him down the order and he could only recover to fourth. The McLaren victory ended Schumacher's winning streak at three races and proved that the championship battle was far from over, injecting renewed energy into what was shaping up to be a classic title fight between the German and the Finnish two-time champion.
