Glory days for Tyrrell became increasingly infrequent after Jackie Stewart’s retirement. But MauriceHamilton recalls how the plucky and defiantly small team stayed bold enough to innovate – springing a surprise with F1’s first six-wheeled car:
Tyrrell won the 1971 championship with a team of 19 people – in total. The list of employees included Ken, his wife Norah and Eric Baker . The rest, from Derek Gardner to Robin Coleman , had done all that was necessary to build and run cars capable of winning seven of the 11 grands prix.
The final victory at Watkins Glen had been important for two reasons: a $267,000 prize fund made the US GP the richest by far in F1; and a maiden win for Francois Cevert not only earned Tyrrell $50,000 but also signalled the Frenchman’s continuing rise as a serious contender.
