The 1999 FIA Formula One World Championship was the 53rd season of FIA Formula One motor racing.
It featured the 1999 Formula One World Championship for Drivers and the 1999 Formula One World Championship for Constructors, which were contested concurrently over a sixteen-race series that commenced on 7 March and ended on 31 October.
Defending champion Mika Häkkinen was again awarded the World Driver's Championship. His team McLaren just missed out: it was Ferrari that clinched the World Constructors' Championship by a margin of four points.
It was the final season for 1996 world champion Damon Hill. Michael Schumacher was injured on the first lap of the British Grand Prix at Silverstone. His brakes failed, and he broke his leg. He missed 6 races and returned at the Malaysian Grand Prix.
