Niki Lauda and Alain Prost contested a very competitive season of formula one action. Lauda already a double world champion paired with Alain Prost at Mclaren had his work cut out to match the pace of the young and determinded a quick new boy. Although Prost had been around in formula one since 1980, he actually came very close to being world champion in 83, but this was his best chance thus far in a very competitive McLaren MP4. However the cunning Lauda had other ideas, and his brilliance and race prowess eventually proved too much for Alain and he won his third World title. I watched this season unfold back in 84 and it made me a huge Lauda fan. His driving through the field was legendary. Great review and I love Clive James's commentary. Also amazing performance from Elio De Angelis and his Lotus JPS. Great video
