Michael Schumacher's move to Ferrari for 1996 changed F1 forever.
In this episode Karun Chandhok and Matt Beer join host Glenn Freeman to revisit what was going on in the F1 driver market during 1995, when Schumacher resisted offers to drive a faster car or for more money to take on the project of rebuilding Ferrari.
We also look at the other drivers affected by his move, from those who had to wait for Schumacher to decide his future before they could sort their drives out for 1996, to the ones who turned down opportunities to be his team-mate before Eddie Irvine got the drive.
We then follow the start of Schumacher's life at Ferrari all the way from a tense first meeting with car designer John Barnard, through winter testing, the late arrival of an ugly and unreliable car, to a Ferrari debut that offered more promise than had been expected when the F1 world set off for Australia in March 1996.
