abstract	The Australian Grand Prix had at this time not been a Formula One event. Instead the event traditionally held the final round of the Australian Drivers Championship which was locally known as Australian Formula 1, however the cars were not Formula One specification and instead were Formula 5000. The Formula One calendar had concluded and in 1980, Australia had its first Formula One World Champion since 1966 in the form of Alan Jones. Jones had recently returned to Australia during the off-season of Formula One where his success had earned him celebrity status. Australian Grand Prix organiser Bob Jane therefore considered opening the Australian Grand Prix to Formula One cars providing Jones the opportunity to showcase his skills to his home crowd. Bob Jane invited the Formula One teams to participate in the event, however the turnout from the F1 world was poor, only Alan Jones in his {Williams, Bruno Giacomelli in his Alfa Romeo and Didier Pironi who would sample the local machinery arrived for the event. Pironi notably choosing to compete in one of the older and slower F5000 cars, the Elfin-Chevrolet rather than the Lola-Chevrolet in which most of Australia's top drivers were competing in.
