AltF1 1978 - two's company, three's a crowd
Mario Andretti and Lotus may have taken the 1977 title thanks to a combination of reliability, luck and outright speed, but the early adopter's advantage for Ground Effectsis beginning to dissipate. Colin Chapman's revolutionary innovation is now firmly out of the bag, but it remains to be seen who will benefit and who will lose out as Formula One heads into the future.
In addition, with the beginning of Simtek's superb Aurora British F1 series for 1978, European-based (especially British) privateers can choose whether to participate exclusively in Aurora, exclusively in World Championship F1, part-time in each, or some mixture of both. Please note, the Aurora calendar clashes with the World Championship Calendar
All this remains to be seen, but for now, I'd like team owners to report back with a statement of their plans for 1978, including those teams which plan to run in the Aurora series. The full ruleset will follow shortly, followed by sponsor signing.
