1984 Season Report

Niki Lauda won the 1984 Formula 1 World Drivers' Championship driving for McLaren, finishing on 72 points, 0.5 clear of Alain Prost. Lauda won 5 races that season.

McLaren took the Constructors' Championship with 143.5 points, 86 ahead of Ferrari.

5 different drivers won a Grand Prix, and 20 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.
