Protos

Protos was a British racing outfit that competed in the Formula 1 World Championship in 1967, taking part across 1 season during the 1960s.

Like many of the small privateer entries that filled the grids of its day, the team did not score championship points, but its participation was part of the fabric of Formula 1 in an era when privateers and one-off entrants were a common sight.

Drivers to appear for the team included Kurt Ahrens and Brian Hart.

Protos represents the countless smaller teams and privateer entries whose participation, however brief, helped fill the grids and shape the character of Formula 1. Though it never reached the front, it remains part of the complete history of the World Championship.
