=== 2000 ===
Over the Winter, the McLaren's and Ferrari's had drawn relatively equal in their performance over testing. There was a tight battle for pole position at Albert Park. Häkkinen eventually claimed the position, however his position was arguably saved when his teammate, Coulthard, crashed bringing out the red flags and halting a blistering lap from Schumacher's Ferrari.__TOC__
