F310B
With the hiring of Rory Byrne and Ross Brawn to replace Barnard, part of the dream-team that would give Ferrari six straight contructors' championships from 1999 to 2004, they used the F310 as a base for the F310B. The car was slightly more streamlined but still lacked both the engine performance and the aero-package of the ultra successful Williams-Renault package of the FW19. Throughout the season, a noticeable problem, which both Schumacher and Irvine admitted, was that the car induced plenty of understeer. This hindered both drivers at the beginning of the season. It was noticeable to every team due to the large front wings implemented on both cars to try and counteract this problem. Later on in the season however, this problem was slightly rectified with the introduction of flexible front wings.
Regardless, double-champion Michael Schumacher held truth on his 1995 promise that "in 1996 we will win three grands prix, then in 1997 we will challenge for the championship" by taking the challenge to the last round. He was, however, unable to hold off a storming drive by title challenger Jacques Villeneuve; a botched attempt by Schumacher at defending his position ended up with him in the gravel, retired and eventually disqualified from the 1997 season results. The team nonetheless retained their constructors' points.
