1980 Season Report

Alan Jones won the 1980 Formula 1 World Drivers' Championship driving for Williams, finishing on 67 points, 13 clear of Nelson Piquet. Jones won 5 races that season.

Williams took the Constructors' Championship with 120 points, 54 ahead of Ligier.

7 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.
