The cars improved because they had Schumacher on the team developing them! Before 1999, the last time Ferrari won the Constructor's championship was in 1983. Since 1999, they've won it 6 straight years. Why? Schumacher.

Wrong. See 1994 & 1995. Schumacher twice won the championship in a Benetton, a car universally acknowledged to be inferior to the Williams.
Look at Fisichella this year: his teammate - in the same car - is leading the series by 20 points. Fisichella is in 6th.
Look at Montoya this year: his teammate - in the same car - is beating him by 30 points in the series.
Great drivers win in lesser cars; lesser drivers don't necessarily win in great cars.
