Changes: Tyrrell 002

Revision as of 11:43, 13 February 2017

Chassis 002 was the second car built of the first Tyrrell design of F1 cars. It incorporated several design changes from the 001 prototype, and had a longer monocoque. It was more closely related to the subsequent 003 and 004 cars of the series than the original 001. The car was earmarked for François Cevert, and he drove it for almost two entire seasons.

History

The 001 car had made its debut in the hands of Jackie Stewart at the 1970 Gold Cup Race at Oulton Park in August. Starting from the back of the field, Stewart carved through the pack and finished the first heat in fifth place, netting the fastest lap along the way. Based on that performance, the team started planning a second chassis, to be ready by the start of the 1971 season. The design was enhanced and improved until construction actually started, immediately after the 1970 Mexican Grand Prix.
