1979 season custom AI file for the BMW M1 Procars - made for use with the excellent WIP skinpack by @gringohairpiece.
(thanks to @unbremsbar74 for trying this file out 
)
Features:
Simply copy the XML file into your
...\Steam\steamapps\common\Automobilista 2\UserData\CustomAIDrivers folder.
This file should work well with @gringohairpiece 's skin pack from here. If you are using different skins, or have any issues with the AI drivers not showing up in game - check to ensure the livery names in the AI XML file match the livery names detailed in the relevant livery override XML files within your ...\Steam\steamapps\common\Automobilista 2\Vehicles\Textures\CustomLiveries\Overrides folder.
Limitations/issues:
- When running a custom championship, points are currently allocated to the car/livery, not the driver.
- *The lineups are not fully accurate, as some cars only appeared at certain races, and AFAIK it is not possible to exclude individual liveries without swapping in a different AI file for each race.
- The BMW Motorsport liveries include the driver name prominently on the windscreen, etc, - so can look a bit odd with an alternative driver, but it is not currently possible to automatically switch the skins.
I would love to hear any feedback or suggestions to improve this further.
)Features:
- Custom driver lineups for each AMS2 track raced for the 1979 championship*, using track-specific overrides. So, for example, 'John Winter' (Louis Krages) appears for Team Konrad at Hockenheim, and various drivers (Fittipaldi, Reutemann, Fabi, Jarier, Depailler, Needell, etc) make cameo appearances in the BMW Motorsport cars.
- AI mistakes - makes use of the recently added parameters (avoidance_of_mistakes and avoidance_of_unforced_mistakes) for all drivers.
