In the meantime, the South African race, run in February under FOCA's pre-agreement version of the rules, had been deprived of its World Championship status by the dispute, and the Argentinian race, originally scheduled in January, was moved to April.
Mentres tanto, a carreira de Suráfrica, que disputárase en febreiro baixo a versión das regras do acordo previo da FOCA, foi excluída do campionato do mundo, e a carreira arxentina, prevista inicialmente en xaneiro, foi trasladada a abril.
