Ferrari F2004
The F2004 still holds outright lap records at circuits that have not been reprofiled since, which is a strange thing to be able to say about a car from 2004 - modern cars are heavier, on worse tyres, with less engine. It was the end of the run: Schumacher's seventh title, Ferrari's sixth straight constructors' championship, and then the tyre rules changed and it stopped.

Why it mattered
The idea. The last and best of the V10s, at the end of five years of Ferrari getting everything slightly more right than everyone else
What it did. 20 races, 15 wins, 12 poles, 14 fastest laps. Schumacher's seventh drivers' title and Ferrari's 2004 constructors' championship.

A blank is a figure nobody published for this car. Where several teams quote the same number in a season it is usually the rule they were all built to rather than a measurement, so it is kept with the regulation limits instead of here.

A photograph marked unchecked has a file name that does not name the car it is shown for. Most are still the right car, filed under the driver rather than the machine — but nobody has confirmed these one by one.
