Seven Would Have Been Six Without This – Michael Schumacher Used Ferrari Piston

Arguably the greatest driver to step into a Formula 1 car is the somewhat controversial Michael Schumacher. Making his debut for the Jordan team in 1992, Michael Schumacher moved to Benetton team for the next race, a team he would stay with until the 1996 season.

Schumacher and Benetton would win two drivers titles in 1994 and 1995 and one constructors World title in 1995, but it was the German’s move to Ferrari where eyebrows were raised but his career took a turn that would change Formula 1 forever.

As part of the Ferrari “dream team” with Jean Todt, Ross Brawn and Rory Byrne, Michael Schumacher and the Scuderia would win 5 consecutive World drivers and constructors titles, a record only matched by the all dominating Mercedes AMG Petronas team, which had it’s foundations built by none other than Ross Brawn and Michael Schumacher.

As part of his run of 5 World title wins, we have this Michael Schumacher Used Ferrari Piston from his championship winning 2001 season. Without this piston, a title challenge could have ended in failure and history itself would be rewritten.

Any Ferrari, motor-sport or Michael Schumacher fan cannot pass this opportunity by. This Michael Schumacher Used Ferrari Piston comes mounted on a perspex plinth, with a gift box and certificate directly from Ferrari as well as our own certificate of authenticity and lifetime guarantee. This is an extremely rare and exclusive item and would be the talking point of any motor-sport collection so grab it now while it’s available.

The Cause

At War Child we are driven by a single goal – ensuring a safe future for every child affected by war.

We work in some of the hardest to reach places to support those who are hardest hit. We aim to reach children as quickly as possible when conflict breaks out and stay long after the cameras have gone to support them through their recovery. We work with local communities and governments to help protect and educate children, and support them to heal and learn, for a safer, brighter future.

We understand children’s needs, respect and stand up for their rights, and put them at the centre of everything we do – because one child caught up in conflict is one child too many. Every day, our local teams are in communities and in refugee camps creating safe spaces for children to play, learn and access psychological support, and we specialise in responding rapidly to emergency crisis situation to deliver immediate and critical care to help to those who need us most, when they need us most.

At War Child, we will never give up on children affected by conflict.
