Pre-Race Report
Championship standings
Lauda has a 21-point lead over Scheckter with four races remaining.
Previous race
At Zandvoort, Lauda won comfortably. Laffite was second and Scheckter third after Tambay’s Ensign ran out of fuel on the final lap while running in that position. Earlier, Hunt and Andretti collided while disputing the lead, and Reutemann and Nilsson tangled in the midfield battle.
Entrants
Italian drivers Bruno Giacomelli, Giorgio Francia, and Lamberto Leoni each make their Formula 1 World Championship debut at Monza. The Apollon constructor also makes its championship debut. British Racing Motors — the legendary Bourne outfit — make their final Formula 1 World Championship entry.
