Summary

The 2000 Australian Grand Prix marked the start of Ferrari's dominance of the early years of the 21st century, although it took an assist from an unreliable McLaren team for Michael Schumacher to score his first win in an F1 season-opener since 1995. Matt Beer and Mark Hughes join Glenn Freeman to revisit how Schumacher got off to the perfect start, Jenson Button's rollercoaster F1 debut after much debate before the season, a bizarre spat between Eddie Irvine and McLaren, and the beginning of F1's 2000s manufacturer boom, with Honda and BMW back on the grid, Toyota waiting in the wings and Renault buying Benetton.
