1971 British Grand Prix
Encyclopedia
The 1971 British Grand Prix was a Formula One
race held at Silverstone
on July 17, 1971.
gained pole with a scorching lap of 1 min 18.1 secs, beating off Jackie Stewart
and Jo Siffert
in the BRM, who were mourning the loss of Pedro Rodríguez
in a sports car race a few days earlier.
The start itself was a shambles, with a bungled flag drop causing a collision between Jackie Oliver
and Graham Hill
, for which Oliver was rather harshly fined £50. Regazzoni led away from Jacky Ickx
and Stewart, but after just one lap Stewart had passed Ickx, with Siffert following him through. On lap 4 the Scot took Regazzoni and disappeared into the distance - by lap 10 he was over 3 seconds ahead. In the points positions, Emerson Fittipaldi
, Ronnie Peterson
and Tim Schenken
were having a memorable tussle. Regazzoni repassed Siffert - who was suffering from vibration problems - on lap 15, but the BRM driver managed to hang on to the back of the Ferrari for several more laps. Stewart increased his lead to 14 seconds on lap 20 and 18 seconds by half distance. Ickx dropped out of fourth place with rubber breaking off from his front left tyre, and Siffert dropped way down with a broken coil bracket. The battle between Peterson, Schenken and Fittipaldi moved up into 3rd, 4th and 5th places.
On lap 48, tyre problems struck Regazzoni and further problems ensued when he tried to leave the pits after his tyre change to find his engine had no oil pressure. Schenken too dropped down the field with gearbox problems and retired completely when it jammed for good 4 laps from home.
Henri Pescarolo
and Rolf Stommelen
thus moved up into the battle for 4th and 5th, duelling right to the line, with Pescarolo winning out by just 0.5 seconds. John Surtees
gained 6th place.
Stewart took a commanding home win and extended his lead in the Championship to 23 points.
