Individual sources for this event

Autosport 28 Aug 1975 pp8-11 (by Pete Lyons). Motor Sport October 1975 p1125 (uncredited).

A week after the Austrian GP there was a non-championship race held at Dijon and called the Swiss GP. Marlboro provided the finance, and attracted 16 entries.

Two entries arrived from McLaren, Shadow and Williams; and one from Tyrrell, Lotus, Brabham, March, Ferrari, Surtees, Hill, Hesketh, Ensign and Maki.

The only spare cars were a Tyrrell 007. This was poor chassis 007/5, which had still only raced once, in Jabouille’s hands, and wasn’t even used here.
