On October 16th, Formula One has often marked the moments when power changes hands.

In 2005, Renault sealed their first Constructors’ Championship in Shanghai, ending Ferrari’s long reign and signalling the rise of a new generation.

Eleven years earlier, Michael Schumacher reasserted his control at Jerez after returning from suspension — a calm, clinical performance that foreshadowed his decade of dominance.

The same date celebrates the birth of Charles Leclerc, Ferrari’s modern standard-bearer, and the 2011 Korean Grand Prix, where Red Bull cemented their second straight title with Sebastian Vettel.

From Benetton to Renault, Ferrari to Red Bull, this episode explores how dynasties are made — and how, in Formula One, greatness is never permanent.
