Mercedes third straight constructors championship has not looked in doubt for much of 2016. By wrapping it up at the Japanese Grand Prix, the team entered an elite pantheon of former F1 dynasties -- becoming only the fifth team to have won three titles in a row.ESPN looks at the elite company the world champions joined at Suzuka and how each of them came to rule the sport in their respective time periods.Ferrari (1975, 1976, 1977)Ferraris first spell of total dominance of the sport came after ten years without a drivers or constructors championship. The promotion of Mauro Forghieri to technical director sparked a revival, as did the signing of a young Austrian named Niki Lauda and the appointment of Luca di Montezemolo as team principal in 1974. Forghieris Ferrari 312T was piloted to five wins by Lauda as Ferrari claimed both titles in 1975 and the Austrian was comfortably leading the championship the following year until his infamous crash at the German Grand Prix.Though James Hunt won the 1976 drivers title, Lauda and Clay Regazzonis six victories helped win a second straight constructors championship. Lauda reclaimed the title in 1977 as Ferrari became the first team to win the championship three times in a row. Laudas retirement the following year did not diminish Ferraris form, as Carlos Reutemann and Gilles Villeneuve took the team to second in the championship. It then took a clean sweep in 1979, with South African Jody Scheckter winning the drivers championship -- the teams last until 2000. Despite two more constructors championships in 1982 and 1983, the 1980s saw Ferrari fall from its previous heights.McLaren (1988, 1989, 1990, 1991)McLarens 1980s resurgence had started with back-to-back constructors championships in 1984 and 1985, with one drivers championship apiece for Lauda and Alain Prost respectively. Despite another Prost championship in 1986, the team lost the next two constructors championships to Williams. The team made two crucial acquisitions at the end of the disappointing 1987 season: Honda engines, and the services of Ayrton Senna from Lotus.McLarens 1988 package might have been as close to motor racing perfection as you can get: Prost, Senna and the legendary MP4/4, which would claim all but one win and one pole position in the season. The MP4/4, designed by Gordon Murray and Steve Nichols, powered Senna to a maiden world title as McLaren claimed 10 one-two finishes from 16 races. Its successor, the MP4/5B, remained for 1989 and 1990, as Senna and Prosts feud turned nuclear -- they famously collided as teammates at the 1989 Japanese Grand Prix, before Sennas MP4/5B drove Prosts Ferrari off the circuit at Suzuka to win the championship the following season.McLarens domination continued into 1991, though Senna worked hard to overcome what he felt was an underpowered Honda engine. Winning the first four races of the season, the Williams FW14 dominated the middle of the season, before McLaren and Honda recovered to claim Sennas third championship and a record fourth constructors title in a row.Williams (1992, 1993, 1994)As one empire ended, so another began. Williams rise can be traced to the signing of technical chief Adrian Newey in 1990, with the early design of the FW14 -- which featured semi-automatic transmission, active suspension and traction control -- enough to lure Nigel Mansell back from Ferrari. Equipped with a Renault engine, the evolved FW14B was all-conquering in 1992 -- winning 11 of 17 races -- as Mansell finally won the world championship and Williams claimed the constructors title.Alain Prost replaced Mansell the following year to pilot the FW15C as the team won 10 out of 16 races. Senna, who had been unable to join in 1993 due to a clause in Prosts contract, finally got his wish to join Williams in 1994 as the Frenchman retired. The FW16 was a massive evolution of its predecessor but, despite being fast, was erratic and hard to drive. The controversial Benetton B194 was the class of the field in early 1994 and Williams struggled to match it early on. Though the team eventually claimed a third straight constructors crown -- helped by a two-race ban for Michael Schumacher -- the season was overshadowed by Sennas death at Imola.Benetton won both titles in 1995 but Williams took clean sweeps in 1996 and 1997, meaning it won five constructors crowns in six years. The loss of Newey (to McLaren) and its Renault engines at the end of 1997 signalled the end of its dominance and led to a severe downturn in form at the end of the decade.Ferrari (1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004)Years without F1 success reached a nadir for Ferrari in the early 1990s, with winless seasons in 1991, 1992 and 1993. Gerhard Berger and Jean Alesi claimed a solitary win in 1994 and 1995 respectively, but the team was in disarray. A radical overhaul, overseen by Di Montzemolo (now president) and team boss Jean Todt, in 1996 laid the foundations for F1s greatest-ever dynasty. Reigning double world champion Michael Schumacher joined from Benetton, bringing with him technical gurus Ross Brawn and Rory Byrne, forming a dream team that would dominate the sport like never before.Despite an inferior car, Schumacher won three times in 1996 -- including his legendary drive at the Spanish Grand Prix -- before coming close to beating superior packages to the title in 1997 and 1998. Schumacher broke his legs at the 1999 British Grand Prix and teammate Eddie Irvine narrowly missed out on the title, but the team finally won the constructors. The following year, with the F1-2000, Schumacher won Ferraris first drivers title since 1979 -- the first of five in a row.Ferraris domination of the early 2000s was absolute. The F2002 won 14 of the 19 races it entered in 2002 and 2003 (Schumacher finished every race of that season in first or second), but the pick of the bunch was the legendary F2004, which won 15 out of 18 races, claimed 12 pole positions and still holds numerous track records. Schumachers 13 wins in 2004 earned him a record seventh world championship. The dynasty ended in 2005 as Renault claimed the first of two championships.Red Bull (2010, 2011, 2012, 2013)The seeds of Red Bulls dominance of the early 2010s were sewn mid-way through the previous decade. Having entered in 2005, the team set about implementing a similar dream team to Ferrari, with Helmut Marko, Peter Prodromou and Christian Horner in place by the end of 2006. So, too, was Adrian Newey, as the team pulled off a massive coup by luring the design genius from McLaren. Progress over the first three years was slow, before the rule changes in 2009 led to a dramatic rise up the pecking order with the RB5, which claimed the teams first wins and ran Brawn GP close for both titles.Neweys RB6 was the pick of the field in 2010, wrapping up the constructors championship a race early -- before Sebastian Vettel claimed a first world championship at the Abu Dhabi finale. The team retained both in commanding style the following season, with the RB7s famous blown diffuser setting it aside from the rest. A stern challenge from Ferraris Fernando Alonso followed in 2012 but, despite a slow start, the RB8 enjoyed a late resurgence (with four straight wins for Vettel from Singapore onwards) as he narrowly claimed a third drivers championship.The RB9 -- nicknamed Hungry Heidi by Vettel -- would enter the record books in 2013, as Vettel claimed 13 wins (including nine in a row to finish the season). The teams dominance would end abruptly with the introduction of V6 turbos in 2014.Mercedes (2014, 2015, 2016)The V6 turbo era could have quite legitimately be split into two classes since its beginning in 2014. Mercedes has utterly dominated the new formula, with (at present) 47 wins in 55 races and 52 pole positions in the same period. Mercedes started working on its V6 turbo engine as early as 2011, in that time formulating the innovative split-turbo design which has left rivals in its wake for three dominant seasons. The V6 project was impressive enough to convince Lewis Hamilton to end a life-long affiliation with McLaren to join a year before the new era started in 2013.Though the engine department, headed up by Andy Cowell, has gained plaudits since 2014, the technical operation led by Paddy Lowe has also produced consecutively strong chassis designs. The W05 and W06 claimed 16 wins in 2014 and 2015 respectively as Hamilton beat Nico Rosberg to back-to-back titles. The scale of Mercedes dominance has led to criticism, with the rule book arguably limiting the amount its rivals have been able to catch up, but the team has overseen one of the most dominant periods in Formula One history.It wrapped up a third straight title in Japan with the W07 last weekend and will have a third drivers championship to its name by the end of the season. It remains to be seen whether next years significant rules revamp is enough to end another of motor racings great dynasties. Orlando Magic Gear .

The ECB delegation left Dhaka on Saturday evening with its host hopeful of Englands tour of Bangladesh going ahead as scheduled in October. The delegation inspected venues in Mirpur, Chittagong and Fatullah, giving special attention to detail when looking at the venues and hotels in Mirpur and Chittagong. The three-member delegation also had meetings with intelligence agencies and BCB officials in Dhaka, and were shown the security plan for the tour at the home ministry.A top official at the home ministry said the delegation was happy with the plan. The BCB, however, refrained from any overly confident statements before hearing from its English counterpart.The delegation included the ECBs security advisor Reg Dickason, Professional Cricketers Association chief executive David Leatherdale and the ECBs director of cricket operations John Carr, and arrived in Bangladesh after completing a venue inspection for Englands tour of India later in the year.The BCBs media committee chairman Jalal Yunus said: We will know whether it was a positive tour for them when they report back to the ECB. They will decide only then. TThey visited all the hotels and ground facilities, and were briefed about security.ddddddddddddTheres no time frame, and we wont put any pressure. They took everything quite seriously here, and spoke to nearly everyone, including the countrys security intelligence.

The need for such an assurance from the Bangladesh government towards the UK is being discussed as a necessity, given the July 1 attack in Dhaka.Englands tour is set to be the maiden bilateral Test and ODI series in Bangladesh this year. So far this year, international cricket in Bangladesh has included the Under-19 World Cup, T20Is against Zimbabwe, and the Asia Cup. ' ' '
