Previous: 1979	Next: 1981

The 1980 Formula 1 series is the fifth season of pi314159's alternate Formula 1. The season marked the end of Arturo Merzario's team, Team Merzario, with Osella and Ron Dennis' Project Four making their debut in Formula 1 in their place. Roger Penske would also shut down his team midseason after falling into pre-qualifying to focus on his Indycar team.
