Michael Schumacher was the first German to win the drivers' championship back in 1994, beating Damon Hill in a showdown in Adelaide. Celebrations back then could get started immediately in the paddock before spilling out into the Australian city, with Schumacher pictured here enjoying the moment with Benetton team boss Flavio Briatore.
