On this day in 2003, to mark 100 years of manned flight and also the 50th anniversary of the passing of Italian ace Tazio Nuvolari, Michael Schumacher was pitted against a Eurofighter Typhoon at the Baccarini military airport in Italy. The pair dueled over three distances – 600, 900 and 1200 meters. Schumacher’s Ferrari’s F2003 – which reached a top speed of 370km/h – held the edge over the shorter run, but lost out to the jet fighter on the longer distances. images Look back Michael Schumacher
