Alboreto finished the year 52nd in the Drivers' Championship, the highest ranked Lancia driver.

1956

Michele Alboreto (23 December 1956 – 25 April 2001) was an Italian racing driver.

1976

His career in motorsport began in 1976, racing a car he and a number of his friends had built in the Formula Monza series.

The car, however, achieved very little success and two years later Alboreto moved up to Formula Three.

Michele Alboreto started his career in 1976 racing in Formula Monza with a car he and his friends built, known as the "CMR".

1978

The car itself proved to be uncompetitive and in 1978 Alboreto, now in a more competitive March, moved over to Formula Italia where he began to take race wins.

Two years later Alboreto moved up to Formula Three, racing in a Euroracing-entered March-Toyota in both the European and Italian series.

In his début Formula Three season, Alboreto finished 6th and 2nd respectively in the two championships, scoring three wins in the Italian series.

1980

Wins in the Italian Formula Three championship and a European Formula Three Championship crown in 1980 paved the way for his entrance into Formula One with the Tyrrell team.

Two wins, the first in the final round of the season in Las Vegas, and the second a year later in Detroit, earned him a place with the Ferrari team.

In 1980 he took the European crown and finished third in the Italian championship, taking five wins between the two series.

An appearance in the British Championship was also made that year.

Alboreto's European title earned him a move into Formula Two, a feeder series for Formula One, with the Minardi team.

He shared the Group 5 category Lancia Beta Montecarlo with Walter Röhrl or Eddie Cheever on four occasions during the 1980 season, scoring three second-place finishes and a fourth.

1981

He scored Minardi's only F2 victory, at Misano, during the 1981 season where he finished eighth in the championship.

Despite his career in open wheel racing, Alboreto was chosen by Lancia to be part of their official squad in the World Championship for Makes, running in rounds which did not conflict with his other races.

Alboreto again ran a partial schedule in 1981 even though he was also running Formula Two and Formula One.

This season included his first participation in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

He earned an eighth-place finish overall, second in class, and was the highest finishing Lancia.

He followed this with his first win in the championship, at the Six Hours of Watkins Glen with co-driver Riccardo Patrese.

1982

When Lancia chose to move to a new class of competition with the Lancia LC1 as the championship concentrated solely on endurance races in 1982, further success came for Alboreto.

A small schedule for the championship, as well as an emphasis on European circuits allowed him to compete in every race that year.

Although the LC1 suffered from mechanical problems on its debut, Alboreto and teammate Patrese were able to rebound to earn a victory at the 1000 km of Silverstone.

Teo Fabi joined the duo for the 1000 km of the Nürburgring, where they once again earned a victory.

He was not able to repeat his previous success at Le Mans when the LC1's engine failed, and was unable to complete an event at Spa when the car broke in the closing laps.

A third victory was earned by Alboreto and new teammate Piercarlo Ghinzani at their home circuit, Mugello.

The final two races of the World Championship season had Alboreto's car eliminated from contention due to accidents.

At the end of the season, he had secured fifth in the Drivers' Championship.

1983

Lancia changed classes and cars once again in 1983 World Sportscar Championship season, but Alboreto remained as one of the team's primary drivers.

He brought the new Lancia LC2 to a ninth-place finish in its debut at the 1000 km of Monza, but the new car struggled to finish the next few races of the season.

His entries would not finish another race until round five, where he earned eleventh.

While Lancia chose to skip later rounds of the championship, he would not return to the team in order to concentrate fully on his commitments to Formula One.

The following three seasons were less successful, however, and at the end of the season, the Italian left Ferrari and re-signed with his former employers Tyrrell, where he stayed until joining Larrousse midway through.

Further seasons with Footwork, Scuderia Italia and Minardi followed during the tail end of his F1 career.
