Winning being announced after the event isn't particularly unique, as there were 2 of them listed already for this season.

I will say again, this particular thing has never happened since (or before). It is unique to 1976 and to the event in which it happened.

Not what I'm thinking.

No.

I confess I had to look at some information and what struck me - the longest season - January to October?

[Just_a_fan]

Ok, really left field attempt here: Austria '76 - every finisher had a Cosworth DFV. The only none-Cosworth in the race was Pace's Alfa and he retired. Ferrari weren't racing after Lauda's crash in Germany the race before.

Lots of 70s seasons were January to October.
