The Ex - John Watson, Derek Bell
1976 Penske PC3 Formula 1
The second of just two PC3s constructed by Penske for the 1976 Formula 1 World Championship.
Driven by John Watson in the Brazilian and Spanish Grand Prix, along with the Race of Champions.
Sold to Paul Michaels’ Hexagon of Highgate team and rented to F&S Properties for Boy Hayje to race in the Dutch Grand Prix.
Subsequently raced by Derek Bell in the Shellsport International Championship, PC3/02 took victory at Oulton Park.
Having passed through a number of collections including that of Martin Birrane, PC3/02 was bought by Frank Sytner and restored by Simon Hadfield before becoming a regular competitor at the Monaco Historic Grand Prix. PC3/02 achieved 3rd place at the 2024 Monaco Historic GP and has only that race on the Cosworth DFV engine.
Regarded as one of the quickest pre ground-effect Formula 1 cars in historic racing, PC3/02 would be a front running contender for the 2026 edition of the Monaco Historic GP and is one of only a few F1 cars constructed by Penske.
Price: £POA
