Interim principal Bruno Famin said the changes were made"in order to go faster in reaching the level of performance we are aiming for". It is no coincidence that dominant Red Bull have the longest-serving boss in the paddock while Toto Wolff, who led Mercedes to a record eight constructors' titles in a row, is second on the list.
Briatore left in 2009 after one of the sport's biggest scandals involving a deliberate crash at the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix and the team went through tough times as Lotus before Renault returned in 2016 and then rebranded as Alpine.
