Guy Edwards was in and around F1 from 1974/77, but never got into anything like a top class car.
He achieved more success in the British Shellsport Gp8 and Aurora F1 championships. From 1976 to the final year in 1980, he raced a whole host of redundant F1 machinery. Ensign N174, Brabham BT42, March 75A/761, March 781, Fittipaldi F5A and Arrows A1 were all raced, with loyal backing from Ultramar. He was a winner in everything but the Ensign, which he only drove once in 1976, but never managed to put together a championship run.
