Harry Blanchard, from the United States, raced in Formula 1 during 1959, fielded by Porsche. His career on record comprises a single start that season, which yielded no points or podium finishes; he classified in twentieth position in his sole race. With only one documented appearance in international single-seater racing, Blanchard's competitive record is minimal and his Racer Rating of 2,966 reflects that of a driver with very limited high-level exposure.[1]
Blanchard's one-race tenure places him among the briefest of Formula 1 careers. His team, Porsche, competed only sporadically in the championship and fielded a roster of sixteen drivers across its history, with Wolfgang von Trips as its strongest representative. Blanchard's single appearance yielded no measurable competitive advantage against the contemporary Formula 1 field, and his career subsequently ended. He remains retired from racing.
