Ĭhampionship defendants Niki Lauda and Ferrari had parted ways late in 1977, and both parties struggled to repeat the successes they had enjoyed the previous seasons. JPS-Lotus won the International Cup for F1 Constructors. 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. His victory at the Dutch Grand Prix is also the last for an American driver. He remains the last American driver to win the World Championship.
Mario Andretti won the Drivers' World Championship, driving for JPS-Lotus. The season also included the non-championship BRDC International Trophy.

Sometimes I can't believe that the process has to be so difficult." The American is asking to be taken seriously by the F1 organisation. You have to satisfy so many organisations. They can make it as complicated as they want. The Former Ind圜ar Champion goes on to explain the procedure: " We don't really have time for that, it's very complicated. Rejection would be biggest disappointment ever for AndrettiĪndretti doesn't sound frustrated yet, but he will be more and more so. So far I can't think of anything we haven't met." Despite the team's serious intentions and available funding, it doesn't seem to be getting off the ground any time soon.
