F1 1973 Jackie Stewart - Tyrrell 005 - 19730002
For 1973 the World Championship of Drivers was won by Jackie Stewart, driving for Tyrrell, and the International Cup for F1 Manufacturers by Lotus. In the World Championship, Lotus teammates Emerson Fittipaldi and Ronnie Peterson raced each other while Stewart was supported at Tyrrell by Francois Cevert. Stewart took the Drivers' title at Monza, but then at the final race of the season, the United States Grand Prix at Watkins Glen, Cevert crashed during Saturday practice in the notorious 'Esses' and was killed instantly. Stewart and Tyrrell withdrew from the race, handing the Manufacturers' title to Lotus. At the end of the season Stewart made public his decision to retire, a decision that had been made before the US Grand Prix.
