The Year That Was - F1

San Marino Grand Prix

Michael Schumacher gave Ferrari an emotional first victory of the 2003 season at their home track in Imola, Italy.

It was the German ace's 65th win and Ferrari's 160th.

Schumacher, who had lost his mother hours earlier, fought back the tears as the German anthem sounded.

Raikkonen finished second while Brazilian Rubens Barrichello, in the other Ferrari, took third place.

The champagne was left unopened by all three winners.
