Two entries arrived from McLaren, Tyrrell, Lotus, Brabham, March, Ferrari, Shadow, Williams and Hill. There were two Hesketh entries with Harry Stiller’s car as the second. Single entries arrived as usual from BRM, Surtees, Penske and Fittipaldi. Parnelli and Ensign did not attend, the former because Andretti was at the Indy 500 and the latter because Wunderink had been injured in a F5000 race, so there were only 24 entries. Technically, there was little change since Monaco.
The spare cars were a McLaren M23, Tyrrell 007, Lotus 72E, Brabham BT44B, Ferrari 312T, BRM P201, Shadow DN5, Surtees TS16, Hesketh 308 and Penske PC1. The spare Tyrrell was identified as 007/5 by both Autosport and Motor Sport.
