1976, Hunt vs. Lauda.
I went to the British GP at Brands and everything was still in the balance because Hunt had been disqualified from the Spanish GP and was then subsequently disqualified from the British GP. He was eventually reinstated in the Spanish GP but 2 moths later.
There was of course Laud's crash at the Nürburgring, which meant he missed 2 races and still it went down to the wire. There's never been a season like it.
'81 was a pretty close second, with the championship decider in Caesar's Palace car park in Vegas.
