 and Lauda. On Saturday morning, as predicted, the rain came just before the end of untimed practice, and so the afternoon session served only as practice for a possible wet race on Sunday, as Friday's times determined the grid.

Sunday began cold but dry, with a crowd over 100,000. Before the warmup, however, it began to drizzle, and by the five minute signal, it had picked up enough that only John Watson was willing to gamble on starting with slicks. At the flag, everyone got away from the grid and through the first turn without incident, but the spray was so heavy that nothing was visible after the first five cars. Stuck quickly jumped ahead of Hunt, and after one lap, they were followed by Andretti, Reutemann, Peterson, Lauda, Scheckter, Jacques Laffite

.

Immediately, Scheckter began to take advantage of the others' uncertainty in the conditions and, by lap five had moved from ninth to fourth. Stuck was also going well in the wet, and, despite losing his clutch cable in the first few laps, pulled away from Hunt. Lauda was finally able to get by teammate Reutemann, who had been holding him up, for fifth spot when the Argentine spun. On lap 15, with Hunt four seconds behind, Stuck, struggling to make gear changes without a clutch, popped out of gear entering a corner and went straight on. His monocoque was damaged and his race done.

Hunt now led Andretti by 10.5 seconds, with Scheckter 14 seconds further back in third. This situation continued as the drivers sought the wet sections of a drying track to cool their tires. With 10 laps remaining and the lead at 22 seconds, Hunt backed off as the pits gave him the signal, "EZE". Lauda was coasting in fourth, content to remain there and clinch the Championship. Scheckter had slowed in third to preserve his tires, and it looked like the finish would be extremely dull.

Suddenly, with just two laps to go, Andretti, who had been closing while Hunt cruised home, was only 6.7 seconds behind. As they began the last lap, the margin had closed to 1.5 seconds, and the home crowd was going wild as the track announcers called out the position at every corner. On the last go round, however, Hunt actually increased his lead slightly to win by just over two seconds. The McLaren pit had not informed him how close the Lotus was until his last time past, when Teddy Mayer

So, the outgoing Champion won the race, and Lauda's second title was a popular one, especially after the comeback and the controversy of Mount Fuji
