Trevor Taylor was a British Formula 1 driver who raced for Lotus-Climax across five seasons from 1961 to 1966. He was an established professional, competing in a single-class world championship that mixed amateur and semi-professional entrants with graded professionals on the same grids.[1]
Taylor started 27 times in Formula 1 and took a single podium finish. He raced regularly against two of the era's strongest drivers: Jim Clark, who won the world championship twice and would go on to 72 Formula 1 starts, and Bruce McLaren, a professional with 103 starts. Taylor usually finished behind both. He did, however, finish ahead of Jim Clark on three occasions and ahead of Richie Ginther, an established professional with 53 Formula 1 starts, once. Lotus-Climax, his main team, fielded 52 drivers across the indexed record and won 22 races; Clark was the strongest of them.[2]
