  • The 1961 United States Grand Prix, officially known as the IV United States Grand Prix, was the final round of the 1961 Formula One Championship which saw Phil Hill declared as World Champion, despite not competing in the race. The race itself was held at Watkins Glen, which would become the permanent home of the United States Grand Prix after the 1961 edition of the Grand Prix became the first in the US to generate a profit. The race also proved to be one of firsts on the circuit too, as Innes Ireland claimed his, and Team Lotus', first race victory, although Lotus built cars had won before. Also on the podium was American racer Dan Gurney, one of only two men not using a Climax engine, while Tony Brooks ended his career with a third place finish. The legendary driver Stirling Moss would also race for the final time at "the Glen", although the Brit would retire from the race while leading.
