Joie Chitwood

Joie Chitwood raced under the American flag in Formula 1. Made one world championship start, at the indianapolis 500 in 1950 — the race counted toward the formula 1 world championship from 1950 to 1960, placing him in the championship's inaugural season.

Driving a Kurtis Kraft, Chitwood scored a championship point and was classified 22nd in the first-ever drivers' standings, a distinction few one-start drivers can claim.
