1977 Season Report

Niki Lauda won the 1977 Formula 1 World Drivers' Championship driving for Ferrari, finishing on 70 points, 15 clear of Jody Scheckter. Lauda won 3 races that season.

Ferrari took the Constructors' Championship with 84 points, 22 ahead of Team Lotus.

8 different drivers won a Grand Prix, and 21 drivers scored championship points.

Championships in this era were decided on a "best results" basis — drivers counted only their highest-scoring finishes towards the title, so season totals can differ from the sum of every race result. Dropped scores were abolished from 1991.
