François Cevert born in 1943, died in 1973 at only 29 years old during testing for the United States Grand Prix at Watkins Glen. Great French hope. The Scottish Jackie Stewart, five years his senior,
multiple winner, took François Cevert under his wing, without jealousy or rivalry. he obtained his first podium, Tyrrell's first double, on July 4, 1971 at the French Grand Prix on the Paul Ricard
circuit. In 1971, he won his first success in Formula 1 at Watkins Glen. Following his death, Jackie Stewart ended his career as a Formula 1 driver. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
