McLaren's Best 5 seasons in F1

2) 1976: All hail King James Hunt the shunt!1976 is a season that will remain in the annals of F1 as one of the best seasons of all time. The season was dominated by the rivalry between McLaren’s James Hunt and Ferrari’s Niki Lauda. The politically charged atmosphere of the season lead to several race results changing due to numerous appeals over results and regulations. The season is also remembered for Lauda’s horrific crash at the Nürburgring Nordschleife which left the right hand side of Lauda’s face scarred by burns. In the end Hunt won the season by the slimmest of margins – 1 point. The season was immortalised this year in the film ‘Rush’
