Individual sources for this event

Neither Autosport nor Motoring News give all chassis numbers. Emerson Fittipaldi has a completely new car (AS 29 Apr 1971 p14) quoted as 69/71.14.F2. Wisell's car is ex-Emerson, Beltoise has Lauda's car and Max has Pescarolo's. Vittorio Brambilla's accident completely the ex-Ernesto Brambilla BT30/21 which does not reappear.
