His first season brought no points, but 1967 proved more productive: he scored two championship points and was classified sixteenth in the drivers' standings. Under the scoring system of the era, which rewarded only the top finishers, any points return was a creditable achievement.

Irwin's Formula 1 career ended after that 1967 campaign, leaving a brief record of two seasons, three different chassis, and a modest but genuine points score from his ten starts.
