Skol Fittipaldi World Champions. Ceveza

At the end of 1979 Copersucar decided to end their sponsorship of the Fittipaldi team. With its close neighbour Wolf Racing closing they purchased all of its current cars, becoming a two car operation for the first time. The team was renamed Skol Team Fittipaldi for the 1980 season to reflect new sponsorship from Skol Brasil (now an AmBev brand). Emerson and Wolf Racing driver Keke Rosberg raced the first part of the season with reworked Wolf chassis from the previous year. The cars, designated F7s, brought a third place for each of the drivers before being replaced by the less successful F8. The design team that year was headed by Harvey Postlethwaite, another asset gained from Wolf, and also included very young chief aerodynamicist Adrian Newey^[18][19] – both were later designers of championship winning cars for other teams.
