The 1986 FIA Formula One World Championship was the 40th season of FIA Formula One Motor Racing.

It featured the 1986 Formula One World Championship for Drivers and the 1986 Formula One World Championship for Manufacturers, both of which commenced on 23 March and ended on 26 October after sixteen races. The 1986 season mark the height of turbo-powered engines - with up to 1300 HP, the F1 has never seen more horsepower.

The Drivers' Championship was won by Alain Prost, and the Manufacturers' Championship was won by Williams-Honda.

The Championship culminated in a battle between Williams drivers Nigel Mansell and Nelson Piquet and McLaren driver Alain Prost at the final race, the Australian Grand Prix. Mansell's tyre exploded and Piquet was brought in for a precautionary pit stop for tyres as a result, leaving Prost to win the race and his second consecutive Drivers' Championship. Mansell, Piquet and Prost, along with Lotus' Ayrton Senna, dominated throughout the season and formed what was dubbed as the "Gang of Four".

It's every time the same with the season-mods from the IMG-Team: So extremely well done !!! Thanks to the whole team.
Great work on this. Can anybody explain how I can find the livery references in order to change the Mclaren livery to the yellow one in the xml?
Looks like there are a few cars where the XML refers to the wrong car and preview, e.g. Ferraris and Tyrells. Easy fix to edit the XML file to apply teh correct livery and preview however.

Great quality work! Thanks!
It is splendid work.
There are only thanks.
Outstanding liveries, suits and helmets. This pack really ramps the immersion factor and is an awesome achievement. Congratulations and thank you to everyone involved
Thank you so much for this. Terrific set!! A special thank you for Gerhard Berger's Benetton helmet, probably my favorite helmet design ever.
..needed a break from iraging - thank you!

wasn't into motorsport at the time, but still remember the sound of that era of f1 ringing off the walls of the detroit in '87. was there for MEPS (USAF) and got a minute spectating during a practice session-so many jersey barriers!

doing full length single player '86 and '91 seasons at 110 ai. the turbo cars, they are just unsafed weapons. the ai is getting ever better; alternate between med/max aggression but still bunch a little. used the f1 wiki to create semi accurate weather and lap count - not looking forward to adelaide '91, ha won't last long.
This is really good, thanks very much. One small point: the Lotus 98t has a bug (from the Reiza original I believe) that when driving in VR, the JPS log on the front top of the sidepods appears overlaid on another texture. In the other 86 mod by ianez, he fixed it by moving the JPS logo slightly further back on the top of the sidepod.
Fantastic work, thanks so much!
