SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS (Belgium), Sept 1: Michael Schumacher led Ferrari to a historic one-two in the Belgian Grand Prix on Sunday to become the first driver to win 10 races in a single Formula One season.

The German, his fifth world title wrapped up in record time more than a month ago, was in a class of his own at his favourite circuit as he led Brazilian team mate Rubens Barrichello from start to finish.

Schumacher has now won an unprecedented six times at Spa, where he made his debut in 1991 and won his first race in 1992, and a record 63 times in his career.

He had previously shared the record of nine wins in a season with Britain’s former world champion Nigel Mansell, a spectator in Belgium on Sunday, who did it with Williams in his title year of 1992.
