Lapchart

The 1971 Dutch Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Zandvoort on 20 June 1971. It was race 4 of 11 in both the 1971 World Championship of Drivers and the 1971 International Cup for Formula One Manufacturers. Due to heavy rain, the track was treacherously wet and slippery, giving a large advantage to "wet-weather men" Jacky Ickx and Pedro Rodriguez, who also happened to be equipped with highly suitable cars and tyres.

This was the last Formula One race on a circuit with no safety features on it. Because of this the Dutch Grand Prix was canceled the next year, but the circuit came back in 1973; and the layout had been modified.

Notes

  • This was the Formula One World Championship debut for that year's Le Mans winner and Dutch driver Gijs van Lennep and Australian driver David Walker.
  • This was the 10th fastest lap set by a Belgian driver.
  • This was the 50th race for British constructor McLaren.
  • This was the Formula One World Championship debut for American engine supplier Pratt & Whitney.
  • For the first time in 42 races, and since the 1967 Canadian Grand Prix, a Ford-powered car did not end in a podium finish. This set a new record.
