Tony Settember was an established professional racing driver from the United States who competed in Formula 1 as a solo single-seater driver. He raced for Scirocco across two seasons, 1962 and 1963, in a championship that fielded a broad mix of amateurs, semi-professionals and graded professionals in the same races.[1]
Settember made nine starts in Formula 1 over 1962 and 1963. His 1963 season saw him finish 13th in the championship standings across six rounds. He regularly encountered Jim Clark, who would win the championship that year and the following season, and Richie Ginther, an established professional with extensive Formula 1 experience; Settember typically finished behind both. He beat Ginther once and scored a single finish ahead of Carel Godin de Beaufort, another established professional. Scirocco, the small team that fielded him for the majority of his starts, took no race wins across the index with Settember as one of three drivers it ran.[2]
