1975

Ferrari won 6 races out of 14, and the world title went to Niki Lauda.

The title was decided in round 13 – Italian Grand Prix.

In 1975 Ferrari returned to the top with their new 312T: Niki Lauda started from pole nine times, won five races and became champion, and Ferrari took the Constructors’ Championship for the first time since 1964.

James Hunt won the Dutch Grand Prix in a privately run Hesketh. At the Spanish Grand Prix the race was stopped after a crash that killed spectators; Lella Lombardi, sixth at the finish, became the only woman to score points in the World Championship — half a point.
