On this day in Formula 1 history, November 3rd has pushed the greatest drivers to their limits.
From the searing altitude of Mexico City in 1968 to the flooded streets of Adelaide and the chaos of modern Interlagos, it’s a date that has tested every kind of champion.
We revisit Graham Hill’s triumph in Mexico, where he carried Lotus to a World Championship in a season shadowed by loss. Then it’s on to Adelaide 1985, where Keke Rosberg conquered heat, attrition and the turbo era’s extremes, and 1991, where Ayrton Senna tamed a monsoon to take victory in Formula 1’s shortest ever race.
Fast-forward to Texas in 2019, as Lewis Hamilton sealed his sixth world crown, and finally to São Paulo 2024, where wet weather and inspired strategy delivered one of the most unpredictable podiums of the modern era.
Five races, five tests of skill, courage and endurance — and proof that true champions are forged not in comfort, but in challenge.
