If the retiring Michael Schumacher wins the drivers' title this year, the coveted 'number one' that represents the Championship status could disappear from the Formula One grid for a year.
In the 1994 season, after quadruple champion Alain Prost won the title for Williams and then retired, Damon Hill oddly wore the number '0' on his Williams Renault.
“I don't know what would happen,” Schumacher told reporters at Suzuka. “I'm not sure if they have changed that or not.”
Should Fernando win the title, he will take the number one over to the McLaren Mercedes team.
