In the annals of history, September 2, 2001, will go down as the day when Michael Schumacher in his Ferrari overtook Alain Prost's all-time aggregate of 51 triumphs.

His win in the Belgian Grand Prix was not only testament to his will to succeed but also the determination that goes along with it.

A tribute to one of the greatest ever drivers in Formula 1.
