About the Grand Prix
The 1971 Austrian Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Österreichring on 15 August 1971. It was race 8 of 11 in both the 1971 World Championship of Drivers and the 1971 International Cup for Formula One Manufacturers. The 54-lap race was won by BRM driver Jo Siffert after he started from pole position. Emerson Fittipaldi finished second for the Lotus team and Brabham driver Tim Schenken came in third, which turned out to be the first and only podium finish in his Formula One career. This was the debut race of the future world champion Niki Lauda. It was Siffert's last pole position and victory before he died during a non-championship race at Brands Hatch.
