The 1978 Formula One season was the 32nd season of FIA Formula One motor racing.

It featured the 1978 World Championship of F1 Drivers and the International Cup for F1 Constructors, contested concurrently over a sixteen race series which commenced on 15 January and ended on 8 October. The season also included the non-championship BRDC International Trophy.

Mario Andretti won the Drivers' World Championship, driving for JPS-Lotus. He remains the last American driver to win the World Championship. His victory at the Dutch Grand Prix is also the last for an American driver. Ronnie Peterson was awarded second place in the Drivers' standings posthumously, having died from medical complications after an accident at Monza during the Italian Grand Prix. JPS Lotus won the International Cup for F1 Constructors.

Just installed this 1978 package, just because I collect all regarding Lotus 79 and Mario Andretti. This is good stuff! Thanks much. Little question though; would it be easy for you to do a Mario Andretti helmet with a black visor? Sort of like this? https://www.roadandtrack.com/motorsports/a31286/what-happens-when-you-reunite-mario-andretti-with-his-championship-winning-lotus/. With black visor he was seen the most. Hope you can do this. Again, this pack is great and enjoying to the full. Thanks!

Oh man these paint schemes and AI files are amazing - boot up a 70's configuration of a circuit, and this is as good as a time machine.

Absolutely superb.
