Without a hitch and with full confidence, Ferrari took the 2004 constructors' title in Hungary and Michael Schumacher could claim the drivers' championship at this weekend's Belgian Grand Prix. Only teammate Rubens Barrichello can fight Schumacher for the crown, but one would have to say that the Brazilian triumphing this season would be a considerable, and unlikely, feat. With a 38 point lead over Barrichello, Schumacher's victory is pretty much guaranteed but second in the constructors' is still wide open. Either Renault or BAR would probably be happy enough to be second to Ferrari, but nobody really wants to be the best of the losers. Renault has been hanging on to its second place for much of the season but BAR is nibbling away at the gap between them.
